A Statement From Norm Coleman on Mitt Romney
SAINT PAUL – The following is a statement from Senator Norm Coleman regarding Gov. Mitt Romney’s decision to suspend his presidential campaign:
“I want to thank Governor Romney for his commitment to his nation and his party. His participation in this historic election gave a strong voice to conservative ideals that I believe will be carried forward by John McCain. Americans recognize that our future economic security rests with national security, and John McCain, better than anyone else in this campaign, recognizes this reality. Mitt Romney deserves the thanks of Republicans and Americans for his steadfast belief in the future of our nation. It is clear that Republicans will be able to, very soon, rally around the candidacy of John McCain and begin presenting his positive vision for a country in which people can work together to move our nation forward."
I am going to bite the bullet and VOTE for McCain.
If Senator McCain treats either Democratic candidate with the disdain he treated Gov. Romney in the last debate, many votes will be lost from Independents and 'strong defense' Democrats.
McCain should present his calm and bright side on ALL campaign presentations.
Best,
John Slorp

Norm Coleman's comments do nothing to smooth over my absolute disgust with politicians. I have expressed disappointment to Norm over the last several years with no response from anyone. You may have noticed that I haven't sent any money for at least that long after supporting him in the beginning.

Caucus Outcomes vs. Primary Outcomes
In states where there are "caucuses" there has been much less of a preference for McCain. Caucuses are where the active and dedicated Party members cast their votes. See results below through 2/5.2008 GOP Caucus Winners
Huckabee - IA and WV
McCain - NONE
Romney - Minn., WY, NV, Maine, Alaska, CO, MT, and ND
In Open GOP Primaries and so-called closed GOP Primaries the 'casual voters' and "Independents" are, in many ways, selecting the Republican candidate.
Since there are more delegates to the National Convention from Primary states the preference of the caucus-goers have been overcome.

Presidency
I do not believe we should rally behind John McCain. He just had a non-vote in the Senate for the Stimulus Package...WHY? Because John knew if he voted for the increase he would not be fiscally conservative, if he did not he would be alienating his biggest constituency...65 and above...Him...things get done when politics aren't involved?By: Robby

You have no idea how it saddens and disappoints
me, this Republican establishement support of
Senator McCain.
I and my house will NEVER vote for a Democrat -
including John McCain. If he wins the White House,
I hope you have the guts to fight him.

Although in the past, I've beenwhat's know in the South
as a yellow dog Democrat...
The Dem candidates haven't given me
anything so far.
I liked Gov. Romney and hated that
he dropped out of "the race".
I'm waiting for a viable candidate,
either party would be okay.
McCain is not the man, in my
opinion.

Why Is Norm does to hearings on the 35W Bridge collapse?
Why Is Norm does to hearings on the 35W Bridge collapse?I find it more than ironic that at the very same day that an independent group is running ads on Norm's behalf about the great job he supposedly did after the 35W bridge collapse, Norm is opposing public hearings by the NTSB on the 35W Bridge collapse. Why does Norm oppose public hearings? Is it because McCain might pick his buddy , Tim Pawlenty to be his Veep and they can't have the nation looking at Pawlenty's role or the inaction of his Lt. Governor, at the same time Pawlenty is running for Veep?
