The New Hampshire Debate "which one"

"It's not amnesty," McCain shot back after Romney criticized his plan for overhauling the immigration system. "My friend, you can spend your whole fortune on these attack ads, but it still won't be true."

Romney has to stop lying and wasting all his money to publish deceit and misleading information on the other candidates; then again, that’s the same as asking a leopard to shed its spots. Romney’s campaign is shallow, empty and spineless. Another classic flip-flop coming as no surprise was his deviation from the experienced candidate, to associating himself with Obama, as the candidate of change. Predictable it backfired on him when McCain quipped with a laugh "You are the candidate of change," referring to his flip-flopping trend on every important issues.

When Romney criticized Huckabee for having written that the Bush administration was guilty of an "arrogant bunker mentality" on foreign policy, he was met by a Huckabee who had his gloves off too; "Did you read the article before you commented on it," retorted Huckabee, the former Arkansas governor. "I read the article, the whole article," quivered Romney realizing that there wasn’t a soft side on either side. As fate would have it, he was sandwiched between McCain and Huckabee, his two main rivals in New Hampshire and by the time the evening was over, he had received all he could handle from the temporary alliance. Both Huckabee and McCain justly punished Romney for having changed his position on numerous issues such as abortion, gun control and gay rights.

The debate was so intense that when Huckabee was admonished not to characterize Romney's position on the Iraq war, he delighted the audience with a wise crack, "which one."

Romney's aggressive demeanor reflected the stakes in the wide-open race for the Republican presidential nomination. Huckabee defeated him convincingly in the Iowa caucuses on Thursday with an under funded campaign. Now Romney faces a strong challenge from a resurgent McCain in New Hampshire's first-in-the-nation primary next Tuesday.

If the alliance succeeds in New Hampshire then Romney is history as he should be. He is not qualified to rule the most prosperous, the most powerful and the best all around nation in the world.

Former Sen. Fred Thompson, former New York Mayor Rudy Giuliani and Texas Rep. Ron Paul also shared the stage, but they were largely eclipsed for significant portions of the 90-minute debate as McCain and Huckabee prevailed over Romney.

Like I say about Hillary, voting for Romney is not only an unmitigated disaster, it’s a mistake Americans do not have to live with.
