Romney Withholds Comment on Killings
Romney, who has spent a considerable amount of money in the state, has struggled to convince voters of his conservatism, thanks to several recent conversions he's undergone. Many social conservatives just don't trust Romney, and it's clear that Romney is not a Southerner. "He comes across as being over-coached, over-focus grouped in his language," said GOP consultant Chip Felkel. According to Woodard, there's another reason Romney hasn't connected: "Fred Thompson says 'y'all,' and Mitt Romney doesn't."

DC Insider Thompson defends his lobbying
MUST READ:
Fred Thompson is clearly in over his head! In both his fumbling pre-candidacy period and his hesitant, attenuated post-announcement campaign, he’s given the clear impression that that he is ill-informed, inarticulate, badly briefed and downright lazy.
Thompson is counting on his conservative positions on social issues and the wunder-dust generated by his “Law & Order” stardom to propel him into the lead in the presidential race. But, as Harriet Miers’s failed candidacy for the Supreme Court suggests, one does not just need to be conservative to prevail. It takes a little talent, too. Thompson seems to lack the interest, energy, will, ability and stamina to compete at this level.

Bishops receive no salary or financial reward of any kind. Neither are they isolated members of the clergy. There is no special clerical order within the Church for them to belong to. Latter-day Saint bishops live in the community and work at their regular jobs just like everyone else. Because they administer the demands of their bishop's office mostly on weekends and during evenings, they can do so only by calling on other congregational members in large numbers to help them

"We also need to do more protect our children by cleaning up the culture that surrounds them."
PolitiFact took issue with Mitt Romney for saying, in a comment about President Clinton, that "our spending on national defense dropped from over 6% of GDP to 3.8% today." He took the 6% figure from the Reagan years, more than six years before Mr. Clinton took office. Romney spokesman Kevin Madden says it was a deliberate choice to "clarify just how dramatic the cuts were." He says his candidate's claims were "accurate and supported by the facts."
