This is a question for moms only.
Maybe you saw the ABC News GOP primary debate last week with moderators Diane Sawyer and George Stephanopoulos.
And after you got past the $10,000 bet and the "Newt Romney" sound bites (or perhaps because of them), maybe you started to get a feeling about which candidate might best represent the Grand Old Party come November.
We'd like to know what you think—as a woman, as a mom, as an informed voter who cares about the direction of the country.
This is Moms Talk, and so we are asking that this conversation really be based on a mom's point of view. What we're saying is, sorry, but if you're male, please don't comment.
We can't stop guys from voting (although that would be an interesting amendment to the Constitution), but we hope you have the good taste not to dominate the comments field.
The candidates in the debate were, in alphabetical order, Michelle Bachmann, Newt Gingrich, Ron Paul, Rick Perry, Mitt Romney and Rick Santorum.

It is more important to elect someone who will lead our country well than it is to choose someone who is "Mom friendly". The candidate I would choose did not debate and is not listed as a choice in your poll: Jon Huntsman.

I'll tell you who I will never vote for is Randy Ramey. He voted against aid for developmentally disabled. And I will vote for Sen. Millner who did vote for reinstatement of funding in IL. There is no way someone who cares about his constituents could vote against housing for this at risk population. And at Christmastime yet....awful!
