Super Tuesday is Finally Here

The day that I have been waiting for has finally got here; Feb. 5th and my states Primary Election Day. We finally get our shot at determining who in our party will get shot at defeating the Dems come November. Up until recently my mind was set on a candidate, but unfortunately he dropped out (Fred Thompson) and that left me with the lesser of three evils.

The three frontrunners all have their detractions and over the weekend I finally made my mind up. I had to decide between John "rino" McCain, Mitt "Plastic Man" Romney and Mike "soft on illegal's" Huckabee. After having a long discussion with my wife we looked online to find how each of the candidates fair on the issues we feel are important and we both decided that Mike Huckabee is our man.

I can't speak for my wife as to who she will actually vote for today, but I am definitely voting for Huckabee. I cannot vote for McCain who is about as moderate as they come and Romney is about as phony a man even for a politician. I consider myself a conservative and I want someone in the White House that will the right thing for our country and I am afraid what would happen if either McCain or Romney won for the Republicans and I am twice as afraid if Hilary Rotten Clinton or Barack Obama happened to win.

After spending several hours going over how each of the three Republican candidates stand on important issues like smaller government, lower taxes and national security, I feel that Mike Huckabee would make the best Republican Presidential candidate.

I just don't trust either John McCain or Mitt Romney to lower taxes and reign in government spending run amuck. Nor do I trust them to do the right thing as far as illegal immigration.

Unfortunately, this change of heart will leave me eating a little crow, since it wasn't too long ago that I wrote an article that was critical of Huckabee, but that was only because he was crying like a baby and trying to blame his poor performance on Fred Thompson, who at the time was going to be my choice. So, I am entitled to change my mind since Thompson is no longer running and I need to vote for someone.
