During a speech to New Hampshire Republicans last weekend in which he touted the need for strong American families, the former Massachusetts governor said, "I think it's time for us to recognize every child deserves a mother and a father."

4. What's nice about Mitt

Is that I don't think his flip flops are impressing the base as much as he thinks they are. I mean I get that the Republican Base (somewhat like us) wants ideological purity; but this much dancing seems to be bugging even them. I think they are eitehr waiting for a white knight or writing off 2008.
