Wide Open Race, A Case for Mitt Romney

Today's Wall Street Journal poll shows that Mitt Romney has pulled even with Rudy Giuliani nationally, yet the top five candidates are separated by just nine percentage points. This is the highest Governor Romney has ever polled nationally. As the campaign transitions from the superficial phase to the serious phase, voters are looking for serious candidates.

Mitt Romney will benefit from this turning point as he offers serious solutions. He recognizes our 21st century new world without boundaries. Information, labor, goods, capital, and terrorism all easily flow around the globe with less respect to borders than at any time in the history of civilization.

Governor Romney sees that America's role is not to deny this reality, but to be a strong leader. America’s strength starts with parents teaching their children values in the home, an economic system that embraces free enterprise, and a brave and patriotic military that will defend our liberties. America's strength has been the best ally peace has ever known. Our strength has flowed from the inherent goodness of our people, a people that time and again has paid the ultimate price for freedom, for faith, and for family.

The Romney campaign e-mailed me this morning confirming my assignment in the Quad Cities. I will report on January 2. This is going to be fun!
