PEOPLE EXCLUSIVE: Ann Romney Opens Up THURSDAY JULY 26, 2007 11:00 AM EDT By Sandra Sobieraj Westfall Ann Romney Photo by: Ben Baker Ann Romney, wife of Republican presidential candidate and former Massachusetts governor Mitt Romney, finds strength in her family and her horses – and she's emerging as a potent political force this campaign season. "Ann deserves a lot of credit," says GOP pollster Neil Newhouse. "Politicians talk about family values, Ann and Mitt Romney live them." Her husband calls her "one of America's great moms" – a description she's "totally satisfied with." Mrs. Romney, 58, invited PEOPLE into the sunshine-yellow sitting room of her Belmont, Mass., home on June 12 to talk about her Mormon faith, raising five boys, living with Multiple Sclerosis – and her designs on the White House. Here is the complete interview: What do you most want people to know about you? The thing people are most curio...

Mitt Romney at Jack's Mitt Romney (GG file photo) Jack's in New London was a happening place this morning, July 25, when I arrived about 10:15 am. It helps to know the area, so I didn't even try to park at Jack's since I assumed the lot would be full. It was. So, I scooted directly down to the Kearsarge Regional Middle School which is behind Jack's and parked the ole' gal and walked up to Jack's. The place was full when I arrived with some spillover outside. Since I'm an "undecided" at the moment, I was asked to give an interview for the local Argus-Champion paper. The nice young reporter, Phillip, diligently wrote everything down I said so check it out next Wednesday. Hopefully, he won't misquote me on anything, but then, hey, I've been called names and misquoted before. Likely, I've misquoted people as well. I hope I don't do that here, but I'm a lefty, took some notes in shorthand and longhand and wrote a lot while I was...

Ravi Zacharias on a Mormon in the White House July 25, 2007 Posted by Paul Edwards in Ravi Zacharias , Mitt Romney , Mormonism . trackback Internationally renowned Christian apologist and theologian Ravi Zacharias raised a bit of controversy in evangelical circles back in November of 2004 when he accepted an invitation to speak at the Mormon Tabernacle in Salt Lake City, UT.  He chose for his subject "The Exclusivity and Sufficiency of Jesus Christ." I asked Dr. Zacharias recently if he were at all concerned about the potential for a Mormon becoming president in the person of Mitt Romney: What we want is a politician who will understand the basic Judeo-Christian world view, and on the basis of that  the moral laws of this nation are framed, and then run this country with the excellence of that which is recognized in a pluralistic society: the freedom to believe or to disbelieve, and the moral framework with which this was conducted: the sanctity of every individu...

SC for the huckster says this: "Our second candidate in the spotlight is former Governor Mitt Romney who served 1 term as the Governor of Massachusetts. Compared to that of Mike Huckabee who has 10 ½ years of executive experience as the Governor of Arkansas." I don't think the huckster wants to get in the business of comparing resumes. Mass has 6 million people, Ark has 2. So Romney was governor of more people for more years (24 million man-years... is that a new term?). Outside of government... do we even need to go there? What the Hell has the huckster ever done, beside attract elmer fud looking supporters like this guy? You go dude. You hunt those things with your dog. That is awsome. You go. That is the most important thing we need in our next president... someone who can attract elmer fud... Elmer Fud has a bachelors degree in 2½ years before attending Southwestern Baptist Theological Seminary in Fort Worth, Texas ! OMG! OMG! That sounds presidential? Mitt Romn...

Anyone else think that it is funny that Romney mentioned that video as one of his favorites? Click here for the link. If anyone cares (these are the dog days of summer, and not much is going on) "doublespeakshow" has some weird stuff. One of them is labeled "switch" about Bloomberg switching from D to R to I. They are liberal, because of this video . Nice logic "doubelspeak". No on in Wisconsin could possible be a terrorist!

I was watching the YouTube debate and I found it interesting that the Democrats kept singling out Mitt. I don't remember them mentioning any of the other Republican candidates. To me this is a sign of who really scares them. I saw a graphic Jonathan Martin at the POLITICO mentioned depicting that most of the attacks from the DNC were aimed at my dad too: http://www.politico.com/blogs/jonathanmartin/0707/Charting_the_DNC_attacks.html Posted at 2007-07-24 05:43:03 by Matt Romney
