“The people of mASS got what they wanted and deserved. Romney should say “they will be bankrupt at their own fault and he does not want that for the RED states. The BLUE states can eat each orher and go to Hell. The RED states can eat what they want even if Moochelle objects!” If Romney said that it would help him, but I think he will not.”


Got bad news for you. Romney was one the chief liar/promoters of his plan and still, today, lies about it being a great and wonderful success. It’s like that old debate clip from 2008. Romney likes mandates. As long as they’re HIS mandates.

We have all kinds of laws in Texas that would get you put in jail in MA.
The States will make the decision.
I hope they choose wisely, but that’s the way the founders set up the Federal Gov.

We are supposed to look at Ca an say, Dude... that’s ****ed up, and vote it down as a nation.

Within those states I think Local law should have the most sway and beyond that I believe in individual property rights.

Isn’t that what the founders had in mind? Isn’t that America?

” - - - “One hundred percent of the kids in our state had health insurance. I don’t think there’s anything that shows more empathy and care about the people of this country than that kind of record.” - - - “

DUH, 100 % control is Communism: 100 % live in communal, State law-controlled, hospital waiting rooms.

BTW Romney, you are turning out to be a LOT dumber than you look.

BTW, BTW Romney, PLEASE don’t be puzzled that the Opinion Polls show that you are tied with Obama. You have already just proven that you are dumb, now don’t go and prove that you are also stupid.

You continue to prove my point that you need to rethink your positions. Or at least get informed.

“So why is Romney portraying himself as someone who thinks it is? “


You haven’t figured it out yet? It’s because Romney is a dumb***. Everything he says is carefully weighed and negotiated. He doesn’t even understand what he says half the time, especially when it’s conservatism. Why do you think he always sounds so goofy when talking about how severely conservative he is? The only thing he can be depended on to do is go left when the pinch is on. Why? Because leftist ideas are dumb ideas that people with small minds accept at face value.

BTW when the Pilgrims landed in MA at Plymouth rock the founded a Communal Society.

It failed spectacularly and then William Bradford came up with the idea of individual property rights.

100 some years later America was born.

I think Romney can relate to Bradford.
I Know Obama does not.

Yes, he has one month to prove without question, he’s not a front for fascism: shielded frauds of the MBS CDO fraud, government users, contractors, isolating and targeting assets and accounts of individuals.

WORSE than the current Undocumented Coffee Server, what many are afraid to speak.

I did not say we don’t take Fed money.
I just said Perry turns it down quite often to preserve states rights.

Let’s see what Ca is sucking down.

Romney is always responding , never throwing a grenade himself into
the tent.

Actually, Obama has acted like mini-me to Romney in the last week.
Obama said...no I did do something against China, after Romney kept
running China trade ads.
Obama is now saying we have more commonality? WHy? Because ROmney
switched to more idealogical fight in Ohio these past two days.

Why don’t you start talking about economics?

How a company runs? What he looks for in a company?

How about talking about decision horizons.
He must know that companies need 5 year horizon.
We have taxmageddon on Jan. 1. And the Bush tax cuts will probably
only be extended one year.

WHy doesn’t he talk about how decisions are made?

Obama can’t say anything about economics or economic ideas.

He is a friggin’ dunce about P/E ratio —— remember that?

Romney didnt even talk about the Fed QE3 action????

ROMNEY IS MIA

ECONOMIC NEW IDEAS?????? TALK ABOUT THEM!!!!!

The bottom line here is Romney or Obama.

Staying home is NOT an option.

Stop with the compassionate conservative crap...been there and done that! talk about how Obama is destroying the middle class and the prices of gas, groceries, etc soaring.
I knew the socialized medicine issue would be a thorn in the side of republicans.

Section 4.

The United States shall guarantee to every State in this Union a Republican Form of Government, and shall protect each of them against Invasion; and on Application of the Legislature, or of the Executive (when the Legislature cannot be convened) against domestic Violence.

Seems to me a greater argument could be made to stop States like Massachusetts screwing their own electorate with anti-Republican laws that don’t even have a basis within their own constitutions.

Either Romney is a spectacular genious who is running a very different campaign or a full fledged idiot who is simply clueless.

We will know it prett soon.

Well, I do wish Romney would stop acting like Mr Rogers and kick this Obama punk in the nuts.

“Romney also has to do more than refer to “my plan.” The lack of specifics about what makes his plan so different and better is NOT going to win anyone over.”

Your post was a good one and is what I've been saying. I get dumped on for telling the truth about Romney’s campaign, how it is not working. Most don't want to hear truth. If Romney wins, it will be in spite of himself. This latest, “I am compassionate” isn't believable, either.

lol!

CA gives instate tuition to ILLEGAL aliens
CA gives financial aid to ILLEGAL aliens
CA's governor is friendly to ILLEGAL aliens
And, CA takes fed money

The difference is, you'll never see me defend any of that while you do.

The man gives 30% of his income to charity.
I think he is more compassionate than Ogumby

6 weeks out is no time to start shooting at our candidate.

I guess that puts me in the clear. I started loudly criticizing Romney in 2006 when he began making noise about running for POTUS.
