Mitt Romney attending Senate fundraiser for Brown

I’m not a big Romney fan, but I’m glad he’s doing this. Normally, this race would be hopeless, but IMHO, Brown has an outside shot in the current political climate.

I guess Curt Schilling has no-bid the race.

"Brown is facing perennial candidate Jack E. Robinson for the Republican nomination on Dec. 8."

Jerry Brown? [/s]

They should save Schilling for the Gov. race.

OK...Mitt haters will now flood this thread.
Just watch.

OK...Mitt haters will now flood this thread. Just watch.

Any reason conservatives here at FR should not show up?

MITT ROMNEY Quote: "My hope is that, after this election, it will be the moderates of both parties who will control the Senate, not the Jesse Helmses."

OK...Mitt haters will now flood this thread. Just watch.

Is this the same Mitt that just lied AGAIN about his RomneyCare stating they really weren't trying to lower costs?

And immediately, Freepers were able to dig up the quoate where he stated exactly the opposite during the time frame he was trying to pass this Monstrosity!

And you expect conservatives to just stand by while he tries to use situations like this to help him reach his goals of being the GOP Nominee for President in 2012?

Everything this turd does is staged. It is for effect only!

This is not a principled man and he certainly does not qualify as a leader.

For proof of that, just see the NY 23 affair where this coward didn't have the back-bone to endorse Hoffman.

What is with those who constantly throw around the "Haters" card?

Do you like acting like the spoiled left by using a false charge to try and shut down conversation?

Shame on you!

Mitt is an empty suit. He will say whatever he has to in order to get elected. He seems very insincere, too scripted.

Republican does not necessarily equal conservative. The New York election proves that voters don't have to accept Republican candidates that don't pass the smell test. They can override the party leaders by backing true conservatives. A vote for a conservative is still a vote against the democrats.

Plus, a man shouldn't spend that much time on his hair. Mitt is a John Edwards Republican. He's our own “Breck Girl”.

URL/link to webpage for Mitt’s quote about moderates

Here is a quote that shows what he considers "moderate".

"One issue I want to clarify concerns President Clinton’s “don’t ask, don’t tell, don’t pursue” military policy. I believe that the Clinton compromise was a step in the right direction. I am also convinced that it is the first of a number of steps that will ultimately lead to gays and lesbians being able to serve openly and honestly in our nation’s military. That goal will only be reached when preventing discrimination against gays and lesbians is a mainstream concern, which is a goal we share."
Sincerely, W. Mitt Romney

That aside, it’s still good that he’s helping out the Brown campaign.

Nothing aside, Mitt Romney is the ultimate rino that is anti conservative and after switching from being a liberal activist he is now out to stop conservatism by working from within the GOP and possibly even taking control of it.

I'm a Mitt-hater.

Now PING the Mods and try and ban me.

IMHO, Mittens should stay away. If any RINO is going to do any campaigning or open fundraising for SB, I’d say it should be Bill Weld. Not that I like Weld (I don’t) but he is generally more liked than Mittens; he may be of some help to SB. More help than Mittens, for sure.

Mittens is best kept in behind the curtain (except in UT and maybe NV) raising money for the GOP, which he does seem to have a knack for.

I am for FREE SPEECH! Why would I want to ban you?
You are free to express your hate!

I have no problem what so ever if you are against Mitt.
I have no problem what so ever if we get a more conservative nominee in 2012. In fact I would prefer it.

My only problem is going against Regan’s 11th commandment.
Which means I will prefer ANY republican over ANY democrat.
Therefore I will vote for the winner of nomination fight on the republican side no matter who she/he is in November 2012.

In the primaries, go ahead and fight for your choice. I have no problem with that. But after that we better unite otherwise Zero gets another 4 years to screw up this country.

My only problem is going against Regan’s 11th commandment.

Reagan never said that, it was someone else that was trying to get Reagan to not bash a rino.

freerepublic is an anti-Romney site, you cannot stop conservatives on a conservative site from bashing an anti-conservative liberal republican that is trying to destroy conservatism.

As usual you are missing my main point. I will repeat since you seem slow to comprehend things.
I have no problem if you bash Romney or any other republican during prinmaries.
I for one will not abstain from voting for who ever is the nominee in general election. But you are free to help Obama get re-elected by staying home if that is your preference.

OK...Mitt haters will now flood this thread. Just watch.

You are missing the point, freerepublic is an official Mitt hating site according to it's owner.

ajay_kumar: ”I have no problem if you bash Romney or any other republican during prinmaries (sic).

Good for you. The rest of Team Romney continues to backstab Gov. Palin even NOW!!!!
as well as during Election 2008. How is that for “bashing”?

“Washington Insider David Keene Disses Governor Palin, Claims to Speak for Grassroots
“Keene’s ACU also puts on the annual CPAC conference in Washington.

.In the last three years CPAC has devolved into nothing more than
an annual love fest for the most established of establishment
Republicans, Mitt Romney. It should come as no surprise that David
Keene supported Mitt Romney in 2008. “

“David Keene Endorses Romney“

“ACU President David Keene Endorses Romney
Long courted by Romney, Keene agreed to formalize his endorsement of
the former governor during a face to face meeting in Florida on
Tuesday, according to knowledgeable sources.“

“David A. Keene (born May 20, 1945) is the current chairman of the American
Conservative Union, a position which he has held since 1984. Additionally, he is the
managing associate at the Carmen Group Lobbying, a lobbying firm based in
Washington, D.C. In December 2007, Keene endorsed Mitt Romney's presidential campaign. “

“And The Most Irresponsible Journalist Award Goes to The Politico’s Jonathan Martin!
So tell me, how do you write a “news” story about an organization paying for a speaker when you don’t even know if the organization is paying for the speaker?
Ask “journalist” Jonathan Martin. He knows all about it.
You see, Jonny wrote a piss poor story the other day about how the Iowa Family Policy Center will be paying a large speaker fee if Sarah Palin comes to Iowa to keynote the IFPC’s fall funderaiser.
The only problem is that Jonny has no sources confirming that any exorbitant fee is being charged or paid.
Jonny also got some inside info from David Kochel, who was a top aide to former (and future) presidential candidate, Mitt Romney.
Hey Dave, didn’t I just read a story about how Mitt Romney tried to buy off the Iowa Christian Alliance?
I heard you helped facilitate that little scheme. And somehow you are shocked at the thought of a well-known political figure (who very likely isn’t running for president) getting paid a speaker’s fee for (gasp) a public speaking appearance? ..
and then we’ve got Tim Albrecht quoted. He was the Iowa spokesman for Romney’s 2008 caucus campaign.”
And it always seemed like, whenever the Romney people had rumors they wanted to start about other candidates,
Jonny was their go-to guy to get those rumors in writing in front of a national audience.

The McCain/Palin ticket was up ++8 to 10 pts. in some polls, days prior to the election.
So rather than helping the GOP, poor loser “I am Myth” Romney and
TeamROMNEY decided …… to attack Gov. Palin (and her defenseless children) to throw Election2008.

"Frum was indeed a critic of Palin, calling her nomination a "huge mistake" during an October 13 (2008, weeks before the election) Early Show appearance."

David Frum: "Two of our most plausible candidates for president in 2012 are leading Mormons: Mitt Romney and Utah governor Jon Huntsman."

David Frum: "I have a lot of regard for Mitt Romney as a man and politician… I will support him without qualm."

Late in October, The American Spectator's The Prowler revealed:
"Former Mitt Romney presidential campaign staffers…
have been involved in spreading anti-Palin spin to reporters, seeking to diminish her standing after the election.
'Sarah Palin is a lightweight, she won't be the first, not even the third, person people will think of when it comes to 2012,'
says one former Romney aide…
'The only serious candidate ready to challenge to lead the Republican Party is Mitt Romney.
"Some former Romney aides were behind the recent leaks to media, including CNN, that Governor Sarah Palin was a 'diva' and was going off message intentionally."

The Palmetto Scoop reported: "One of the first stories to hit the national airwaves was
the claim of a major internal strife between close McCain aides and the folks handling his running mate Sarah Palin."
"I’m told by very good sources that this was indeed the case and that a rift had developed, but it was between Palin’s people and the staffers brought on from the failed presidential campaign of former Gov. Mitt Romney, not McCain aides."
"The sources said nearly 80 percent of Romney’s former staff was absorbed by McCain and these individuals were responsible for what amounts to a premeditated, last-minute sabotage of Palin."
… aides loyal to Romney inside the McCain campaign, said The Scoop, reportedly saw
that Palin would be a serious contender for the Republican nomination in 2012 or 2016, which made her a threat to another presidential quest by Romney.

Erick Erickson, who organized Operation Leper, said:
"These staffers are now out trying to finish her off ….hoping it would ingratiate themselves with Mitt Romney."

"Who's the Palin Leaker from the McCain Campaign?
National Review Online The publication of a Vanity Fair profile of Sarah Palin
appears to have opened old wounds in the McCain campaign.
... the source of the “Diva” leak was Nicolle Wallace’s husband."

Who benefits most from Sanford meltdown? Californian (that's right) Mitt Romney

"Peeking Out From the McCain Wreckage: Mitt Romney"

"Someone's got to say it: IS MITT ROMNEY RESPONSIBLE FOR OBAMA'S VICTORY?"

"Vanity: Team Romney Sabotaged Palin and Continuing to Do So?"

"Romney Supporters Trashing Palin"

"Romney advisors sniping at Palin?"

If Palin wins the nomination, I for one, will be very excited, energized and will work my azz off to help her campaign.

If Romney wins nomination, I will still help his campaign in GE.

If any one else wins nomination, they have me behind them.
