Mitt Asks for Your Vote

This is the ad that Gov. Romney is going to run in California. You will notice that it is a positive message that highlights his strengths. I applaud him for not getting into the character aspersions that are becoming commonplace from McCain and Huckabee. I hope that the American people are smart enough to have a solid debate on policy.

By the way, McCain is big on the endorsement game. Romney picked up a few himself today. One is US Representative Lynn Westmoreland of Georgia, one of 21 states with Republican contests on Tuesday. "A Georgia GOP primary works as a filter -- only a true conservative can get through one," he said in a statement issued by the Romney campaign. "It appears that we are now down to a two-person race and Georgians can help winnow the field and protect our party's conservative values and principles."

The other endorsement is from former US Senator Rick Santorum of Pennsylvania, which doesn't vote until April 22. McCain hopes to have the nomination wrapped up by then.
Santorum, however, appealed to Republicans voting on Super Tuesday. "In a few short days, Republicans from across this country will decide more than their party's nominee. They will decide the very future of our party and the conservative coalition that Ronald Reagan built. Conservatives can no longer afford to stand on the sidelines in this election, and Governor Romney is the candidate who will stand up for the conservative principles that we hold dear," Santorum said in a statement. "Governor Romney has a deep understanding of the important issues confronting our country today, and he is the clear conservative candidate that can go into the general election with a united Republican party."
