Mitt Romney’s decisive victory in Florida seems to many to be a sign that he will be the nominee of the Republican Party for President in November.
But actually, the race may be far from over, as there are still 46 states left to go through the caucus or primary process, and Newt Gingrich, Rick Santorum, and Ron Paul are not expected to give up the fight after only four states have voted.
And Mitt Romney has a lot to answer for on his fortune, his personality, his record and tendency to switch views completely from those he held a few years ago, and on his Mormon faith and how it might affect his decision making and his judgments on various political issues.
All of this will be explored as time goes on, but for now, congratulations to Mitt Romney, but don’t enjoy too much as the battle for the nomination and the White House against President Barack Obama has just begun!
Hello Professor,
Well have you heard about Romney’s gaffe today? He is quoted as saying, “I am not concerned about very poor people.â€
As I am sure we all know, it is called a “Freudian Slip†and YES they are VERY revealing. Romney could give a Rat’s Ass about the Middle Class. As far as Romney is concerned, the Middle Class is nothing more than “Sheep to Fleece.â€
But this being said, there will be plenty of the same Middle Class citizens voting for him this November….. because they are Conservative Republicans / Tea Party Patriots. Then again as I type this maybe Romney is right in his thinking….. they are just “Sheep to Fleece.â€
Interesting take on Romney/Gingrich in today’s Boston Globe:
