Presidential Candidates I Like

Mitt Romney - A little weak in every area as far as I'm concerned, but a good leader and I doubt he will do anything to upset the base.

Fred Thompson - Watergate council, senator. Has a reputation as "do-nothing", but I don't see that as a bad thing at the federal level. The positions he has staked out so far I agree with 100%

Bill Richardson - The guy who should get the Dem nomination, IMO. Pro-2nd Amendment, highly accomplished, fiscal conservative (at least according to what I've been able to find).

Ron Paul - He acts only in accordance with his libertarian beliefs and never for political expediency.

Mike Huckabee - Seems like a good guy, but I don't know enough about him...

No love for Rudy? I find myself conflicted on him. He is certainly one of the strongest candidates when it comes to national security, and has great leadership qualities. Some of his policies tend to be a bit liberal though, and allegations of shady dealings and Clinton-esque cheating makes me question his morals.

Need to learn more about all of them, except Hillary and Obama. Those two, I already know plenty.

I'm still considering Romney, Richardson and Paul. Still, it's early days in the campaign season.

His mayorship had degraded into a soap opera and open joke just before 9/11. Sure, he cleaned up NYC, but I think many of the same tactics are heavy-handed if not unconstitutional at the national level. I see him as a fiscal and social liberal who is conservative on crime...
