Romney draws contrast with Huckabee

That's a dangerous ad for Romney. While I compliment him on his ability to criticize without demonizing he is in for some scrutiny on this one. The polls don't recognize Romney much stronger on Immigration. Romney supported the Immigration Reform Act by McCain, and Huckabee is on the reccord for having not supported it. This hasn't caught the press's attention yet. I think this video bites him. It also falsely accuses Huckabee that he supported Illegal driver's licenses which Huckabee is starkly opposed. It draws attention to every issue that Mitt has flip flopped on. It will be interesting how this plays on the minds of Iowa's "hungry for info," voters.

I think that Iowans will find this ad quite distasteful. the reason being that Romney doesn't seem authentic and everyone in the state saw Huckabee slam Romney on this specific issue in the debate. so, the question is, why would Romney use an ad that brings out an issue he already lost on?

As Romney continues to lose ground in the early states he will start attacking Gov. Huckabee. He is trying to walk a fine line of making the people believe that him and Gov. Huckabee are the same but different. The problem with Mitt Romney is that he has flip-floped so many times that nobody exactly knows where he stands. Just last week he came out and made his religious beliefs a part of his campaign when he continued to say that he wasnt going to get into that. Gov. Romney needs to do exactly what Mayor Guiliani did, not back down from his true beliefs. The Mayor did not back down from his Pro-Abortion, Pro-Gay, and Anti-Gun beliefs and he was able to lead in the poles. The only problem now is that the Conservative side of the Republican party now has a canidate that they can vote for and it is showing in the national poles. Gov. Huckabee is filling the void that couldnt be filled by Sen. Thompson and when Congressman Hunter has to bow out his pole numbers will go even higher. I think that if Sen. Thompson was to drop out today that you would see at least a 10% bump, nationally, for Gov. Huckabee.
When everyone is trying to say they are the most like Pres. Reagan the only person acting like it is Gov. Huckabee. Conventional wisdom did not work with Pres. Reagan, everybody said that he didnt have a chance and conventional wisdom will not work for Gov. Huckabee.

Hey, check out ALL the candidates records and you'll find "flip flops" with all of them.

Flip flop for one, flip flop for all !!

Go Huckabee!!! Go Ron Paul!!! The only 2 honest grass roots candidates!!!!

Huckabee =has approx. 8 tax increases on record while he was governor.
Romney= stated he would make the Bush tax cut permanent.
Neither have an acceptable record on immigration.
Where do they stand on the second amendment?

ya it will either work or kill him, as it did dean and others in the 2004 primaries when they ran attack ads.
i think it will kill him because people will react by showing his problems in the same area.
we'll see.

Mitt has not flip flopped ever. He is the only one who has not done that. What he says he means and he actually does. Did he learn, grow, and change his position on something? Yes - thank heavens. And that's exactly the direction we want him to go, as republicans. Did he flop back to what he used to do? NOT ONCE. And, did you know that Romney is the ONLY politician who has ever written ALL his own speeches, without anyone else's help in writing it? That says ALOT for him. Romney is the man. We americans are simply too blind and too soured to recognize goodness now-a-days. We are so burnt out from all the politicans in the past 50 years, that we simply do not believe any politician could ever be geniune and 100% honest and up-front. I can promise you, Romney is that way. I know that personally.

His record prooves who he is. Not once has he gone against what he has voted for or against. Not so with any other GOP presidential runner.
