Mitch is pathetic... mayonnaise and vanilla level of excitement on par with Gerald Ford, Dole, McLame, ...... we are screwed because Obama will CRUSH Mitt.

I won't vote for Mitt because of who he is, where he came from and what he passed as a governor.

I hope the "super rich" enjoy the fruits of their victory, because the natives are going to be restless and I for one will enjoy the riots, random acts of violence in the big cities and overall SHTF scenario. All the little RINOs, all the rich libs are going to be the first ones put up against the wall or shudder behind the doors as the Molotov cocktails come crashing onto the porch and roofs.

The "Detoitification" of the country is about complete.

I recommend lead, food, water and family.... the rest is all frosting on the cake for the maggots of our country led by the democrat/republicat party. Cuz doncha know everything is gonna be aiiightttt.....

The future looks bright with all of us gettin along.

Join the newest game in town.... the "knock out game!!" with these fine participants..

should be fun times for all with the good economy, downsizing the military, increasing taxes and police departments that are fully militarized... yum, yum...

Increasing taxes, capping greenhouse gasses, legalizing gay marriage, and backing Hillary Clinton for president — these are the recent political and policy priorities of Mitt Romney’s very biggest financial backers.

I agree with you, we should not elect Romney. It's funny, so many people write they fear Obama-Lite with Romney, but what I fear is that Romney will be Obama-Heavy. I know he doesn't seem as bad, that there are alot of people that will vote for him thinking anything is better than Obama, but that is not necessarily true. But there is a dark insidious fearful element in the Romney machine, there is something about Romney that scares me more than anything I have seen with Obama and his machine — although Obama scares me plenty. I am praying for Newt.

One of the biggest crony capitalist firm in the world, Goldman Sachs, was Mitt Obomney's top donor in 2008 and now in 2012. Goldman Sachs is also one of the crony capitalist firms responsible for the current worldwide super recession.

I think Romney is even more dangerous than Obama....at least you know Obama is a socialist, and therefore he’s easier to oppose...meanwhile, Romney will be more stealth about it.

“He is not worried about the poor”

With that sound bite Hitler could get elected.

Words mean something.

Ask Perry.

Unfortunately, Newt is also having to rely on super-rich donors, primarily only ONE.

Also Newt is, as he has been pretty much since he started his run, deep in debt. And he's doing weird stuff such as paying himself for giving his campaign email lists.

This is all getting depressing.
