Mitt Romney

Check back tomorrow morning to view my sketchpad for day three of the Democratic National Convention, and go to my national blog to follow convention coverage by cartoonists from around the country.

Former Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney: along with, from left, U.S. Reps. Marsha Blackburn (R-Tenn.), Eric Cantor (R-Va.) and Lincoln Diaz-Balart (R-Fla.)Potential Republican vice-presidential Mitt Romney and an entourage of Republican U.S. House members refined their attacks on Democratic vice-presidential nominee-to-be Joe Biden's foreign policy credentials Tuesday.

“If you look at Joe Biden’s record, with some 30 years in foreign policy experience, there’s about 30 years of generally being wrong on foreign policy issues,” Romney said at a press conference in Denver.

Republican National Convention delegate and pro-life activist Kristy Burton is a John McCain supporter.

But with talk of McCain gauging reaction to a potential pro-choice running mate, Burton told PolitickerCO.com that she wouldn't support McCain's vice-presidential pick until he or she is pro-life.

"I certainly hope he does not pick a pro-choice running mate," said Burton, the leading proponent of Amendment 48, which would amend the state constitution to define a fertilized human egg as a person.

"To be honest, I haven't followed the presidential race to a huge degree just because of my own (Personhood Amendment) campaign that I'm involved in," she said. "So I'll probably just wait to see who he picks and then I'll decide what I'll do."

Sixth Congressional District Republican candidate Wil Armstrong picked up his most high-profile supporter to date on Tuesday, winning the endorsement of former Massachusetts Gov. and possible VP candidate Mitt Romney.

"Washington is broken and Wil Armstrong is the best man to fix it," Romney said in a statement.

GodVoter again protests against Romney in the White House. "Christian voters will not accept a potential Mormon White House," they wrote in an email today, "especially given the possibility of age keeping you from seeking a second term. America led by a President who doesn't believe in Jesus, as has happened in the past, is one thing. America led by someone who believes Jesus is Satan's brother is a different matter."

Mitt Romney will speak on behalf of John McCain during next week's Colorado Republican Party convention in Broomfield, the Rocky Mountain News is reporting.

Also, state GOP Chair Dick Wadhams told the Rocky that turnout for the convention, scheduled for May 31 at the Broomfield Event Center, will rival the historic turnout for the state Democratic convention held last week in Colorado Springs.

While still considered safe for the Democrats by Rassmussen, Obama only holds a 7 percentage point lead over McCain in Massachusetts. The last Democrat to win Massachusetts’ 12 electoral votes by approximately 7 percentage points? You guessed it: Mike Dukakis.

Despite a resolution passing out of the Colorado House 36-29 in support of a presidential regional primary plan that had bi-partisan support, some Colorado politickers are still resisting the idea as bad for Colorado and bad for politics in general.  read more »
