"Extremism in the defense of Liberty... Romney might be our guy"

From Eric Dondero:

Ranald "Ran" Hay (Si Vis Pacem) is an Ohio libertarian Republican and frequent contributor and commenter for this website. Yesterday's Romney railing on two leftist hecklers at a campaign event has seemed to won him over.

He wrote:

This is good. Fire in the belly. Great to see this from him.

If these clowns were Democrat plants, the stratagem backfired – royally. They gave Romney a chance to shine… and blaze away he did.

I’ve wanted to see that Mitt really means what he says about limiting government; that his evolution from statist RINO towards conservatism has some conviction.

I’ve also wanted to see that Mitt has real passion and drive – that he can adopt the alpha male role and mean it. Too, that under pressure Romney can stay on-target. Short as the confrontation was, he came off looking much more convincing than the beta “moderate” of four years ago.

America’s enemies – external and internal – want us to elect a maleable weakling. A suit.

We offered-up two flavors of the same weak brew last go ’round. Time for some strong, principled Tea, people. Extremism in the defense of Liberty is a virtue. Romney might just yet be our guy.

The video has made its way to a number of right sites since yesterday. But take a look, if you hadn't seen it yet. Well worth the 3 minute investment. It really gets cooking at the 1:50 minute mark.
