Florida Believes in Mitt!!

Thank You Florida!! Mitt Wins Again!!

Virginia Governor Bob McDonnell: If you want to win in November, vote for Mitt Romney

"I think he's a results oriented conservative, I think he's the best leader to get America back on track to create jobs, to get this national debt under control and
I'm delighted to be supporting Mitt Romney."

"My message would be if you want to win the race in November, vote for Mitt Romney. He's the best candidate that we've got to beat President Obama. He will do the best job going toe to toe with President Obama on the issues that matter to Americans, jobs, fiscal responsibility and somebody who has been a strong leader and has a proven record in a blue state. He can win democrats and independents over to our cause, by sticking to his principles. That's going to be my message. I'm a strong fiscal and social conservative, I'm a veteran and I think for people that have those, that support our military, that support the traditional values that this country was based on, Mitt Romney is the guy that will defend those values in Washington."

Former New York Congresswoman Susan Molinari: "I worry about the Republican Party's chances to defeat President Obama if Newt Gingrich is the nominee"

Staples CEO: Mitt Romney deserves credit for jobs

Tom Stemberg, founder and former CEO of Staples:

"Mitt was instrumental in getting us going and helping us grow the business"

Mitt's on a roll...

I haven't posted on this blog for nearly 4 years! Mitt is in a much stronger position today.

I just read a peice by John Schroeder, an evangelical Presbyterian. John is a founding member of the Article VI blog.

Favorite paragraphs:

The years since Article VI Blog started have been very interesting years in my life. Among the more interesting occurrences has been the opportunity to get to know Mitt Romney just a little and some of his extended family quite well. These are people, who when judged by the content of their character, deserve the same shot at the White House, or any other part of the American dream, that the rest of us enjoy.

I do not pretend to know what God thinks of Mormons or Mormon theology – I do not know what will happen to any individual Mormon in eternity, or anyone else for that matter – I am no where near that smart. I know what I believe and what my prayer and study has taught me, and yes, it is quite different than what they believe. But I also know that to deny them their place in our nation, based on that difference, reflects far more poorly on me than it does on them.

All said and done, that is why I started with Article VI Blog. I did not want the prejudices of some in the Evangelical community to reflect poorly on all of us. I wanted anybody that bothered to listen to know that we’re not all that way.

Some six years later the only thing that is different is that Mitt Romney is now unquestionably the best candidate qualified to steer our nation back in the proper direction. Economically, his skill is unrivalled. As an executive, his experience is unmatched. As a politician, his current victories speak for themselves – as does his character. This cycle Mitt Romney has more than earned my vote. I am proud to be behind him – 100%.

Brooklyn GOP Chairman Eaton Endorses Romney

Brooklyn's Republican Chairman Craig Eaton has thrown his support behind presidential candidate Mitt Romney.

"I believe Mitt Romney has the vision and leadership America needs in the next four years," said Chairman Eaton.

"Our families cannot survive the continued economic beating they've received at the hands of the Obama Administration," said Eaton.

Eaton added "It's time for a President with hands-on experience in the business world and Mitt Romney's business skills would provide our economy with a steady hand a clear idea of what's needed to turn things around."

Eaton, as the first New York City Chairman to endorse Romney, stated that he will work to elect a slate of candidates in New York's April 2012 Presidential Primary, running as Romney Delegates to the GOP Convention.

Members of New York Assembly Endorse Mitt Romney for President

New York for Mitt!!

Assemblyman Robert J. Castelli with Mitt Romney

Presidential candidate Mitt Romney has announced endorsements from two dozen members of the New York Assembly, including Assemblyman Robert J. Castelli (R, C – Goldens Bridge).

“I’ve had a chance to observe Governor Romney throughout his career, and found him to be level-headed, bipartisan and an individual who worked for the best interests of his constituents,” Castelli said. “I believe in this troubled economy, and troubled world, he has both the business-acumen to lead us out of a bad economy, and the consensus-building capability to unite us as Americans, and continue our strong partnerships with our allies in this troubled world.”

“President Obama has failed to create jobs or get spending under control,” Romney said. “Unless we change course, America might lose its place as the dominant power in the world. With the help of these leaders in New York, I will work to ensure that businesses can start hiring again, government stops growing, and our future is as bright as our past.”

“This election is not just about who can win the Republican-primary, but most importantly, who can win the Presidency and serve Americans in both parties for the greater good of America,” Castelli said. “That person will need to lead us through a tricky recovery, and form the kind of consensus that gets things done in Washington. I believe that Governor Romney is the man for the job.”

Announcing the support of other New York Assembly members, Minority Leader Brian Kolb said, “Mitt Romney is the one candidate with the values and experience that will be needed to go up against President Obama in November. Throughout his life, Mitt Romney has displayed leadership in tough situations – that is exactly what will be needed to turn around our economy.”
