Romney Still With No Support?

In the video they are discussing about whether Mitt Romney is getting the support he actually deserves. He has been targeted by the majority of the other candidates and this is because of the simple fact that they are afraid of him. They know that he is going to become the top candidate and that it is going to say that way once he does. They are trying to dig up dirt on him fast. They want him to lose supporters by making people believe he is dying nothing but lies. I for one believe he is doing everything right. All he needs to do is weather the storm and he will come out on top for sure. His background is definitely one that should gain him some supporters.

Is Gingrich The Guy?

In this video they are discussing whether Newt Gingrich would be the right option to vote for or if he will even become a factor come the caucuses. I actually believe that Newt Gingrich is not the right person to vote for at all. Soon the people will realize that a person with no morals can not possibly be the republican candidate for president. There are other candidates that are better off than Gingrich. Such as Mitt Romney or Ron Paul. Either one of those two would have a far better shot at receiving the chance to run up against Obama than Newt Gingrich. Newt Gingrich definitely has the background to run for president but when it comes down to it, it is his morals that matter as well. The peoe have to look deeper than what they just see. They have to act upon everything he says that he can back up with valid evidence.

Romney vs Santorum

In the video they are discussing about who is going to be ahead and who has the better chance moving forward. Personally I feel as though Romney has the better chance moving forward as they begin doing caucuses in the more rural areas. Some people believe that Rick Santorum is a racist which is going to be a reason that the younger population would not vote for him. Mitt Romney is a business man that is very wealthy. There morals are far about from one another. Santorum believes that abortions should never be an option even if the baby would kill the birth mother. The negatives for Santorum far outweigh the positives. I would go with Mitt Romney because he is definitely more fit for the position.

Cain Allegations

In this video they are discussing about Hermain Cain and the allegations against him that he had affairs with women during his marriage many years ago. Not only did he have an affair, it was an unwanted one. The accuser denies letting him do it but Cain forcing himself upon her. If this were true why wouldn't she tell the authorities a while ago instead of waiting till he is in the race for presidency. I honestly think this while thing is just a set up to try an get him out of the race. He is the top candidate at this time and is a threat to become bigger if his ball keeps rolling. This is why they have to get him out now by stirring controversy.

Gingrich Denies Asking For Open Marriage

In this video they are discussing about Newt Gingrich and how he denied asking his wife for an open marriage. He denied all allegations brought up during the debate on January 19 that he asked his wife to be able to have affairs with women while still in his marriage. I find that to be morally wrong. He definitely will not receive the votes from the religious side of America. How can you vote for someone who is so morally incorrect. His support in the women is definitely going to plummet. I feel as though his past is going to catch up with him and slow him down. If the other candidates keep going on and digging up dirt on Gingrich, eventually he is going to take himself out of the race.

The Caucuses

This video discusses about the caucuses and how the candidates did and will do for the upcoming caucuses. In the Iowa caucus it was extremely close between Santorum and Romney. It was definitely the closest race between two presidential candidates ever. I good this to be quite interesting because I was not expecting it to be any where near as close as is was. I thought it would be a runaway for Romney. This race was actually between three candidates. RoN Paul, Rick Santorum and Mitt Romney. I feel as though this is how it is going to be for the rest of the caucuses.

Romney Attacked For Being Wealthy

In an article written by Nicholas Confessore, David Kocieniewski and Michael Luo on January 18, 2012, they discuss about how Mitt Romney is being targeted because of the fact that he is extremely wealthy. Romney has a estimated fortune of about a quarter of a billion dollars. He is among the wealthiest people to ever run for president. Republicans and Democrats are on his case just because he is reluctant to release his tax return. I personally find no problem with this. A person that works hard their whole life for what they have should not be forced to do anything. I think the other candidates are just trying to make him look bad because he does not want to show everyone his tax returns. With only a couple more days to go until the primary they are trying to make it so the people have doubt in their mind. Once that doubt is in their they will probably vote for someone else. This one problem that they are trying to stir up should not really affect his campaign in the long term but it could make him lose a few votes in Saturday's primary.
