Best Candidates for .... You

Here is my list going into the Iowa Caucus of who I believe the best candidate is for freedom and a seperate list for Christians and for standard "Republicans. I will only list the top three of each candidate.

My personal list "Freedom" being the most important factor

1. Ron Paul

2. Michelle Bauchmann

3. none fit the bill (no one else even talks about personal liberty frequently)


List for Christians which the msot important factors being abortion and banning homosexual marriage

1. Michelle Bauchmann/Rick Santorum

2. Rick Perry

3. Ron Paul


List for "traditional" republicans with important factors being on strong military and being intellectual

1. Mitt Romney

2. Newt Gingrich

3. Jon Huntsman (basically a democrat)

Mitt Romney (in review)

 

Mitt Romney Freedom score of 3 (out of a possible 10)

Key notes
Former governor of Massachusetts
Ran for president in 2008
Mormon

Conservative Strengths
States he is strong on abortion (stated in 2002 he backs state funded abortion)
Stated he is against gay marriage (stated before it was a states right issue)

Conservative weakness
Huge flip flopping
Put mandated healthcare in his state as governor
At one point believe climate change

Considered the GOP front runner for the entire primary and has flip flopped on two of the biggest conservative issues this decade? It just doesn't add up.
