Here is the body of an e-mail I sent  to one of the writers at EVANGELICALS FOR MITT (Romney)

J.D.B. AKA KNIGHT OF THE OLD REPUBLIC

Dear, Mr. ********

I wanted to pin a response to something you said. The simple fact of the matter is that the evidence Governor Romney is beholden to concerning his flip-flop on abortion shouldn’t be an issue. If Governor Romney believed in the right to life then, he as a principled man should have stood by that regardless the consequences. The Governor himself and his supporters would have fewer questions to answer about his stand on abortion now had he practiced consistency through out his run and subsequent tenure as Governor, and now as a presidential candidate. I think that these concerns from people who have withstood the Romney campaign wave are legitimate. He clearly has stated he was a proponent of a woman’s right to choose, and in a manner of a few years, has completely reversed himself. Again, I reiterate that I'm not questioning Governor Romney's heart; I’m simply questioning him based on what I know to be true.

 

Please show me the error of my ways. Show me how my logical conclusion of political expediency (either then or now) is wrong concerning the governors change heart. Show how it is right to compromise ones alleged beliefs in the name of politics (either then or now.) I have no hatred for the governor; I wouldn’t be a Christian if I did. But I’m just looking for answers that I have yet to find. His Mormonism aside (and that is another grave concern of mine) He would be a reasonably good candidate, and had I not already made my mind up, I think I would might consider him, if only it weren’t for the questions concerning his  consistency on this particular conservative principle that is of the utmost importance.
