Mitt Romney certainly has appeal. But I keep waiting for him to say,
" Set it and forget it".

Jim , Florida,

I support Romney and think he's the best candidate, but I hate his negative tactics. Knock it off!

I was not sure before.
But, now I know that McCain is definitely the man for me in 2008! Say it like you mean it, John!

Mr Lewis, Grand Rapids, MI USA

As a Vietnam Veteran who can't get medical assistance I really am sad that these Congressmen and Senators in Washington can't help me.....they can sure come up with the hyperbole about how much they love us and care about us yet only career members of the Military get some help and many who truly deserve some can't get it. I have a friend who flew over 2,000 combat flying hours and flew many missions in combat and he can pretty much just get lip service and excuses....that is when he isn't completely ignored. I don't know about everywhere else but in Oregon here an illegal immigrant can get lots of help easily. Politicians and bureaucrats fall all over themselves to give them everything.

I was disappointed to see Juan McCain win in Florida because Mitt makes a good point that sending these same guys back to Washington to occupy different chairs is not a good idea. America! Don't get fooled again. Note all the career & incumbent politicians who have flocked to McCain's side! GO MITT

Mr McCain is a reasonable man, there is no doubt. But he is not the elder statesman he is projected to be. He isnt able to show any real progress as a leader after 25 yrs in government - what makes him think he can do the business in 4? Is he really a leader of change? On the other hand, Rudy and Mitt can show some credentials in these matters, especially Romney.

It is arguable that McCain is more liberal or moderate than the Republican party and the nation needs at this time. Romney could beat the Dems as a true "outsider" but McCain will loose if he faces a competant Obama or Clinton. If a recession looms, then the Republican party is already on the ropes. If that happens and McCain is the nominee, then the Democrats will take the presidency.

Perhaps such an explosive temper could be a concern. But that doesn't mean Mitt Romney is the answer. We need a president who has integrity & keep his promises. He has changed his views on the sanctity of marriage and the sanctity of life when convenient. While governor of Mass., the comprehensive health care package provides taxpayer-funded abortions for a $50 copay. This is revealing, because in Mass., the governor has line-item veto. In fact, he vetoed eight provisions in that health care bill, but he did not veto Planned Parenthoods' guaranteed position on the Advisory Board. Planned Parenthood is the largest abortion provider in the nation, and perhaps in the world. It is the true "evil empire." If Mr. Romney were truly prolife, he would never do this.

The best candidate is Mike Huckabee. He' s truly solid on the sanctity of marriage & sanctity of life, is intelligent and articulate, and has a common sense approach to governing, as evidenced by his 11+ years as governor.

ThomasJC, Fort Worth,

This should guarantee that all the Eagle Scouts vote for Romney.

Everyone else will just think "What a putz Romney is." Somehow, you just know that in a death match it wouldn't take long for McCain to put Romney down, even with 10+ years age difference.

Bob Shore, Buffalo, NY,

Romney's comments continue to be politically relevant and honest. McCain's latest comment about timetables is an outright lie--not a mistake on his part either. I'm very disappointed in McCain. To paraphrase what his fan Huckabee said––if a man will be dishonest to get a job you can bet he'll be dishonest when he's in the job

Lori, Seattle, Washington

Yes, those comments McCain is alleged to have made will be enough to put some people off voting for him. But surely Romney is stabbing himself in the back by resorting publicly to such petty finger-pointing?

JA, Exeter, UK

Mccain is Amnesty and he will destroy America!!
Mitt all the way

James, orlando, fl

Where to start? Mitt (I will promise you anything to get elected) Romney, has changed his position on every issue! Even in areas where I disagree with McCain (Immigration being the most important), I have found him to mostly be an honest candidate (with a few exceptions).

The most compelling reason I can think of to vote for McCain is that he is the ONLY Republican who can beat the Democrats in November. Romney will get trounced!

I think that conservative Republicans despise McCain for his "thumb in your eye" approach to legislation, and for his willingness to cross the aisle to reach accord with the other side. Isn't this what being a leader is all about? Trying to reach consensus?

I think that conservatives will "cut off their nose to spite their face" in their "anyone but McCain" stance and will throw the election to the Democrats.

Rosie, New York, New York

Thank you, Mitt Romney, for putting up with all McCain's attacks with style. You have shown the country that you have the temperment to be president of our country.

Cheri Garner, Las Vegas, Nevada

I noticed that the date on the release was Jan 5th. Your article makes it sound like the release was today. In fact, it went as far as saying "Aides to Mr Romney, who only 48 hours ago pledged not to launch personal attacks on his rival, released a “top ten list” of what it claims are foul-mouthed and angry attacks by Mr McCain on fellow Republicans." I think that it is irresponsible on your part to fuel the fire between the candidates by making misstatements in your coverage.

labrum, logan, usa

It's good that someone finally exposing McCain for what he is....a power hungry senator desperate for power. Good for Romney.

Valerie F, Phoenix, Arizona

Another Howard Dean on the campaign trail?

McCain's temper makes Cheney look like a pussy cat!

westernmom, Idaho Falls, Idaho

McCain is an angry war monger. All he knows is war. He fights his party, he fights his colleagues, he has a deep personal hatred born of years as a prisoner. He sings "bomb bomb bomb bomb bomb Iran" like its a joke, but it reveals who he is, a man forever at war. Reagan and Bush 41 were hawks, but they didn't joke about war. They were statesmen who understood their place in the world. They spoke softly and carried a big stick. McCain is forever looking for some kind of revenge or payback for what he suffered. That's not leadership. It's an obstinant sense of entitlement. He believes America owes him the Presidency. Well Senator, America doesn't owe you more than it owes any other veteran.

Chris George, Delray Beach, Fl

Romney's Top Ten McCain outbursts was not a 'personal attack'. A personal attack would have been McCain throttling a pizza delivery boy or kicking his dog; all ten were instances of McCain losing control within his tempestuous tenure of political service. Frankly it's about time someone draws attention back to his hot-head, before Senator Chernobyl ends up in the oval office.

Mckay, Newcastle,

Golly Gee Miss Molly, McCain swears! Simply shows he cares intensely. Very childish of Romney to post that on his web site.
