Dem Deutsch Makes Case for Romney: 'We Kind of Made a Mistake Four Years Ago'
NewsBusters ^ | Mark Finkelstein

Posted on 10/15/2014 5:23:45 AM PDT by governsleastgovernsbest

It was one thing for Joe Scarborough to make the case for Mitt Romney, arguing that these frightening times demand the kind of competence Romney offers.

But on today's Morning Joe, it was stunning to hear a New York Dem like Donny Deutsch say something very similar. According to the ad man: "There is a psychological reason to go to Mitt Romney, and that is: wow! We kind of made a mistake four years ago. We get to do a do-over. He was right about Syria, he was right about a lot of things."

Romney had his go.

Romney FAILED TO WIN. He defeated the other republicans, but the democrats beat him

No to Romney.

NO.

Those who made the mistake shouldn’t be the ones who get to advocate on the next decision. They’ve shown to be either dim-witted, corrupted or ill-equipped for common sense analysis. 2012 was the biggest no-brainer in modern times, but the elite were ‘all-in’ to reelect their fellow traveler.

LOL. If Donny Deutsch is for Romney, its all the more reason to not vote for him.

Fine. Let the Democrats nominate him and I'll believe they're sincere.

This man (who spells “douche” wrong) is asking for us to throw Dem voters into the briar patch.

Romney FAILED TO WIN.

He backed off from campaigning about the Benghazi issue. Unexplainable and unforgiveable.

Sincere regret or cynical disinformation? In other words, would they like to see Romney run because he’s less electable after having lost once?

Like ‘Rats ever learn from their mistakes. Sounds like a setup to me. Its more like bring back Mitt a known and reliable way for a GOP loss.
We get it.

Romney didn’t put up much of a fight against Obama. His lack of enthusiasm should eliminate him from the running.

Conservatives are almost always right!

The problem is the consequences of bad decisions don’t often show up for decades. And when they do eventually show up... conservatives have been horrible at linking those consequences to the original bad decisions in many cases made decades before.

Instead liberals (who’s policies caused the problem to begin with) jump out in front of the issue and blame something the Republicans have done recently for the issue.

If Romney had gone after Obama even HALF as hard as he went after the real conservatives during the primary he would have won in a landslide.

But fear of being called a racist I guess held him back.

I agree 100%.

I was actually for Romney, after Palin dropped out before the race began.

I thought he was the strongest candidate still in the race, and I was all for him.

However I don’t know what happened. After he won the Republican nomination, he went to sleep. Just like McCain did four years earlier.

What is it, with the GOP? Can’t we find just one candidate, who is actually interested in winning the election, not just in the inter-GOP scrap which precedes it?

Palin please consider stepping up this time.

There are some others as well.

But don’t foist the failed candidate Romney on us once again. I’m sorry Romney is a fine guy, but it NOT what the GOP needs.

The GOP needs to start to really fight.

Nobody seems to be ready to do that. Not one person.

Which is why, America is sliding so much now. Democrats don’t know what America really needs.

Democrats however know how to win elections.

The GOP needs to do that. We need a winning candidate this time.

He FAILED to win, and that's the bottom line. Actually 0bola and the Dims didn't beat him, he laid down and refused to fight. Look at that last debate, almost everything was "Well, I agree with the president." . He didn't give anyone a reason to vote for him, and didn't his son come out months later saying , he really didn't want the presidency?

Hell, if he didn't want the job then, why should we believe he wants it now.

Absolutely.

The only way I would support a re-run by Romney (and this I am just putting out there, because I think it is slightly a very small possibility)

The only thing which would make me return to being a Romney-ite would be if Romney STRONGLY came out for American production.

Romney, advocate for an America resurgence. Rebuild America’s production, and bring back our industry from China.

That would win me back. Nobody is currently advocating for American industry. We have been selling out our own industry now for over an entire generation.

Romney that is how I could return to you, as a voter. But I don’t expect Romney to do that, so I at the moment am strongly against a repeat run, by Romney.

As things stand now, he is just a rich guy who will interfere with real candidates.

However Romney if you strongly come out for American business, then we’ll talk.

How about it, Romney.
