Will Romney Make The Nomination; Can A Mormon Go All The Way To The White House?

March 23rd, 2012 by Daniel Young | No Comments | Filed in Politics

To some it was a surprise that an African American was elected to the US Presidency in 2008. Mitt Romney, a Mormon, is leading the charge for the Republican nomination in 2012. As of Friday, Romney has 562 delegates, according to CNN estimates, nearly half of the 1,144 delegates necessary to clinch the GOP (Grand Old Party) nomination. Santorum has an estimated 249 delegates.

Will he succeed? Will he go all the way? Let me know what you think.

Thanks.

Let Hope Conquer Fear on November 4

“… bitter, partisan fights and outworn ideas of the left and the right won’t solve the problems we face today. But a new spirit of unity and shared responsibility will.”

I couldn’t agree more with this sentiment.

To me, the way our two party democracies lurch from ‘left’ to ‘Right’ is insanity.

We must stop doing the same thing over and over again and expecting a different result.

McCain didn’t see this financial meltdown coming. Great post on this at Liberal Values.
