Too Hot to Handle

I am posting this message from "Mitt Romney for President, inc." Please notice the last paragraph of this e-mail, "Please stand proud today that you fought for a cause greater than yourself, and please continue to fight to preserve our ideals." I guess the question now is where do we turn?

Considering the turmoil the true conservatives feel, we are stuck between a rock and a hard place. There is no clear answer as to where future primary voters should place their votes, or what we should do during the General election. I have decided I am not going to throw away my vote in November. I am going to outline the positions of the candidates, evaluate their positions, and vote on the issues. But to me the message is clear, "make a difference when you elect congressional seats."

As for the General election, I will be supplying you with all the information I am using to make my choices. I will also outline what I weigh my decisions on. In other words, You will see where the candidates stand, see what I think is good and bad, and see what issues I believe are important to my decision. I am NOT going to just throw my vote to one candidate to hurt the other (Like all you who voted for "Liberal Huckabee" have been doing)

To view this email as a web page, go here. Dear Mychel, If you have not heard by now, I have decided to suspend my campaign for president. This was not an easy decision for me, and I want to thank you from the bottom of my heart for your support from the beginning to the point where we are today. We’ve come such a long way, and our hard work together will leave an imprint on the course of history. As I addressed the Conservative Political Action Conference (CPAC) yesterday in Washington, D.C., I outlined what I know is the right course ahead for our nation – a course based on conservative principles such as individual responsibility, strong faith and values, economic strength with lower taxes and a national defense that will not retreat from the threat of evil extremism. I disagree with Senator McCain on a number of issues, as you know. But I agree with him on doing whatever it takes to be successful in Iraq, on finding and executing Osama bin Laden, and on eliminating Al Qaeda and terror. If I fight on in my campaign, all the way to the convention, I would forestall the launch of a national campaign and make it more likely that Senator Clinton or Obama would win. And in this time of war, I simply cannot let my campaign be a part of aiding surrender to terror. This is not an easy decision for me. I hate to lose. My family, my friends and, you, our supporters, have given a great deal to get me where I have a shot at becoming President. If this were only about me, I would go on. But I entered this race because I love America, and because I love America, I feel I must now stand aside, for our party and for our country. You can be sure I will continue to stand for conservative principles. I will fight alongside you for all the things we believe in. And one of those things is that we cannot allow the next President of the United States to retreat in the face evil extremism. It is the common task of each generation – and the burden of liberty – to preserve this country, expand its freedoms and renew its spirit so that its noble past is prologue to its glorious future. Please stand proud today that you fought for a cause greater than yourself, and please continue to fight to preserve our ideals. Thank you again so very much. P.S.
