Mitt Romney: Can his retooled message, focusing on his Mr. Fix-it record and his business credentials, gain traction? The other candidates will be limping into Florida with little money; Romney's wealth gives him the capability to write himself a check for tens of millions.

...Should Timothy Mcveigh be sitting in a prison cell watching TV for killing 168 people and injuring 850 in Oklahoma City? No, he deserved to die.

...address the economic concerns of voters. Says Romney adviser Weber: "Republicans are having a harder time finding their voice in this changed economic environment." When McCain was asked at the most recent Fox News debate in Myrtle Beach, S.C., what he might offer as a short-term, immediate fix to stave off a recession, he replied, "The first thing we need to do is stop the out-of-control spending." While curbing government spending is a good idea as a matter of policy, and a sure-fire applause line with Republicans, it is precisely the opposite of what many economists...
