Update 7: Allahpundit weighs in (5:10 PM) HotAir.com’s summation: “This ain’t your daddy’s Mitt Romney. (Or, rather, your slightly older brother’s.) Still not convinced? Well, when he was asked today on “The View” who he thought might be a formidable candidate in 2012, he singled out Bob McDonnell, who won the governor’s seat in Virginia last year by running a sort of proto-Romney campaign — socially conservative, yes, but verrry quiet about it compared to his meat-and-potatoes rhetoric about jobs. That’ll be the upshot of Mitt ‘12 too, the “non-ideological conservative” versus whoever emerges as the ideological darling. It’s Palin’s slot if she wants it…” HotAir.com is a great site, but I somewhat tire of how the whole world revolves around Palin when what I mostly want is conservative news. Still I check it daily.

- MSNBC: More Romney vs. Populism “The populism I’m referring to is, if you will, demonizing certain members of society: going after businesspeople, going after Wall Street, going after people who are highly educated, people who are CEOs.

Have not gotten the book in the mail yet . Hope to see Mitt in South Carolina
for the first time in April at a book signing . I spend time on Politico.com Mitting .
From the mail bag:
Deregulation? Free markets? Really? I was sure to remind him that if they didn’t get enough Mitt on the Today Show to tune into The View, Hannity or David Letterman today.
Even Worse:
Dear Mitt Romney;
Am so ashamed of the comments that I have been reading by Americans (?) , who only vote for one party. I happen to vote “the person, not the party” and do NOT condemn anyone for their Religious beliefs.We’ve had many Presidents of different persuasions….some good some not so good. Some had NO belief! There are many good men running for President, and they believe in a “higher Power”. One of these men is Mitt Romney. I happen to like his high standards and his fine background as Gov. of Mass. & his work w/ the Olympics! A good “family man” which is important to me.
Nancy:
Why don’t you read the Constitution>
ARTICLE SIX
No religious test shall EVER be required as a Qualification to an office or public
trust under the UNITED STATES.
Biggest piece of news I took from all this:
Mitt’s read Twilight. Hehehe
Wall Street did not cause the bailout. There was no need to bail them out. Let them fail! Others will rise to fill the need! There is nothing in the Constitution that says we can’t let businesses and stock markets and other free enterprises fail!
When you fail, you learn! People who invest, invest knowing they could lose the money. They should not scream and holler about losing it if they do. They know up front it is not guaranteed. If they want a guarantee, they should put it into a safer vehicle!
Our government needs to turn the healthcare back to the states. Turn the school funding and oversight back to the states. Turn the medicare program back to the states. ETC!!
