For Romney
ByPomocon James Poulos makes the case for Mitt's integrity:
Romney has not become 'the evangelical candidate' like Huckabee. He has not become the 'America, dammit' candidate like McCain. He is not the starving prisoner of the neocon establishment like Rudy. He is not the candidate of broken dreams like Thompson. He is no Ron Paul, for much good and some ill. Romney's far too supportive of waterboarding, and when he's pandered at his worst it's always been in the context of voicing support for Bush. But how he could possibly receive the nomination without making these kinds of moves at critical times (like the Huckabee surge) is beyond me. And I have noted before that Romney moved immediately back to the position from which he's most credible and competent as soon as he stabilized his campaign. In this mode the guy who can turn around the Republican party Romney is commanding. John McCain is not.
