Those who believe the former Massachusetts governor would become a moderate once in office are wrong.
...conservatives aren't thrilled with Romney, even as they prepare to support him. But they aren't objecting to a marriage of convenience. Grover Norquist, founder of the anti-tax Americans for Tax Reform, explained Romney's acceptability in his speech to the Conservative Political Action Conference in February. "We just need a president who can sign the legislation that the Republican House and Senate pass," he said.
Romney's agenda mirrors that of House Budget Committee Chairman Paul Ryan, the Ayn Rand acolyte and anti-tax crusader from Wisconsin who, over the past two years, has crafted the blueprint for Republican domestic policy. "As president," Romney has said, "I look forward to working with Chairman Ryan and his House Republican colleagues to pass bold reforms that restore America's promise."
On the tax side, Romney promises a litany of tax reductions, beginning with a permanent extension of the George W. Bush tax cuts.

Oh, boy, we should be really afraid of a Romney presidency -- better to stay home and let Obama win... (/sarcasm)
I initially posted the link to the first page of the article, here is the link to the entire article on one page.
Quite entertaining.

Romney, timid backstabber, cannot beat Obama.
WHICH IS WHY THE MSM and DNC LOVE Milt.
Also from the article:
“The Mitt Romney of today has been more than clear about his goals. He wants low taxes, smaller government, a weaker safety net, and a larger military.”
Scary! (/sarc)
Anyone who believes that Romney is - or could be - a servant of the right after his performance in Massachusetts is sufficiently ignorant to be ignored.
Pertinent point “the Romney of today”, who will be the Romney of tomorrow?
I mean we already know the Romney of yesterday - liberal.
I posted this article, but only put it into the “Elections” category.
I DID NOT PUT IT INTO BREAKING NEWS.
I asked the AM to please remove it from Breaking News.
Just like he did in Massachusetts...
Severely conservative and because of it he just can't help himself.
Laughable. I have had people try this one me. You can just shoot them down in about 1 minute by mentioning the fact Romney is a former governor of MA (a well known hotbed of extremist right wingers) and the fact the TEA Party folks hate Mittens.
What this article shows is the pretzels Obama voters will twist themselves into justifying a vote for Barry. The dedicated Obama voters are beyond serious debate. Nothing you can say will change their minds because anyone seriously considering voting for obama with his record as POTUS is delusional
It’s really curious that Romney is hated just as much by some folks here as he is over at DUmmieLand.

If we could just get Hillary to challenge Mitt at the Republocrat Convention!
ABO Guys!

What I think is the GOP can’t just say they aren’t going to run a candidate against Obama so, they pick someone the voters will hate.
If you don’t want to vote for Romney Fine. But get your butt to the polls because there are a lot of conservatives that we need to vote for.
