That's some really aggressive reporting there, I tell you. It was great how you did your research and got all the questions from think tanks and others with details on all the flaws in the candidate's policies, and then valiantly dived right in and asked them. Bravo!
Good questions. I really like Romney. His experience, intelligence, experience and can do attitude is just what we need in Washington to turn this mess around and improve our economy.
Great interview! Mitt really has good some good points to make without being mean or arrogant. He is just truthful and business-like. He has been under intense scrutiny this entire campaign and its important that all candidates, Huckabee included, have their records held up to the same light. It's a shame in Iowa that Romney had to do what the press fails to do. As Drudge reports the Dems are holding their fire and clearly that order has filtered down to the mainstream media minions.
Knock 'em dead, Mitt. You are the real winner.
Hey Matt, you're a moron!
I really appreciate this kind of thing. No unfair questions or attempts to slant the conversation, just honest inquiry. It's not just that Mitt has the most executive experience or more endorsements than anybody else...it's that I instinctively trust him. I read somewhere that he kept every single campaign promise during his governorship that he made while campaigning for the position. Anyway, good job!
Do you guys work for his campaign or something?
I mean seriously. I watch the news and I don't see anybody talking about romney's record as gov anymore.
I think it would be interesting if anyone posting would just say if they work for a campaign.
Romney raised taxes in Mass, by $300 million according to business leaders there, so isn't it silly for him to attack others on taxes, I've heard the claim that Huckabee had around $500 million.
If one govenor did 500, another did 300. They ran different states. They aren't running for another govenorship, they are running for President. And seriously, spending increased under Bush and Republicans still support him.
To Hmm:
Do you have any proof that Romney raised taxes? Before you answer that don't forget that there is a Democratic Super-Majority in the Massachusetts legislature. That basically means they pretty much did what they pleased without Romney’s approval.
Romney should tread carefully before boasting about zero pardons. Does he want to risk raising the specter of Anthony Circostia? http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/19586943/
What does it say about Romney that he refused to pardon an Iraq war vet, convicted at 13 of shooting a BB gun? All Circostia wants to do is serve his community as a cop, just like he bravely served his country overseas. Still, Romney found him unworthy of a pardon.
I wonder: If, like Romney and his five sons, Circostia had chosen to serve the Mormon church instead of his country, would he have been pardoned? Just asking...
Funny how we have to resort to guerilla tactics in the age of the internet journalism to support freedom of speech and freedom of the press. The secret identity of the reporter and the hotel in this video notwithstanding, Romney's soapbox gets bigger every day, and I have to say, I'm not too keen on these trapdoor endorsements by the media.
A man's faith is central to his character and, I would argue, to his will; and while I'm not convinced that Romney will cow to the interests of the Mormon church in the White House and on Capitol Hill, I haven't heard ANYTHING on where he's getting his $$ from. Has anyone asked?

National Review was spot on. Romney is the most conservative candidate who can also beat Hillary. He'll be getting my vote!
I like Huckabee and Mitt, but this was a great interview for Mitt, and he was as on his game in today's debate as Huckabee was in the last two.
