He ought to become a democrat... look who he’s running against on that side... a silly woman who’s running based on her husband being ‘cool’ (to MSM types) and a fake Indian who lied to get advantage ...) Romney needs to change parties and run on that side...

I sure do, and I will not vote for him. The problems had to do with running Gingrich, Perry, and Cain, against Romney thinking that any POS could win against him in the primary. He doesn’t have a prayer against Scott Walker, who would be good to show him on as pathetic. Gingrich, Perry, and Cain were pathetic crybabies that made the GOP so bad, that they handed the win to Romney, since they all went down in flames crying about their stupid entitlements. Romney would be neutered talking to Scott Walker, the lineup of who ran is the biggest embarrassment I have ever seen for the GOP. You’re full of it because you can’t admit that the competition against Romney was pathetic, and they aren’t all GOP, just the fools we needed to have vetted out. He is te same. He has ran, an any GOP who can’t point him out a loser doesn’t deserve to win.

Okay...removing the fact that it is “Romney”, does anyone actually see anything in the comments he’s quoted as saying that match the headline and commentary of this article? In effect, the quotes indicate that liberal policies achieve the opposite of their stated intent and is simply stating the facts of what Obama’s policies have done in reality. How is that “running as a Democrat”?

My point is that Romney might have no chance if it's just Republicans voting in the Republican primary. If hillary holds back until it's too late for anyone to compete against her for the nomination, dems can "vote for the worst" in the Republican primary.

Do you really think Romney, Christie, or Jeb think it's more important to win the presidency than it is to keep the nomination from a conservative?

“Okay...removing the fact that it is “Romney”, does anyone actually see anything in the comments he’s quoted as saying that match the headline and commentary of this article? “

Ok, I’ll pluck this out of the article:

Quote by Romney
“It’s a tragedy — a human tragedy – that the middle class in this country by and large doesn’t believe the future won’t be better than the past or their kids will have a brighter future of their own,” Romney said. He added, “People want to see rising wages and they deserve them.”

Now let’s go to what Obama, the quintessential Democrat said months ago:

Quote 1\ by Obama http://www.whitehouse.gov/the-press-office/2013/12/04/remarks-president-economic-mobility

“Their frustration is rooted in their own daily battles — to make ends meet, to pay for college, buy a home, save for retirement. It’s rooted in the nagging sense that no matter how hard they work, the deck is stacked against them. And it’s rooted in the fear that their kids won’t be better off than they were.

As with others in his party, he raised the issue of social mobility and the difficulty of those at the bottom from rising into the middle class.”

Do you honestly believe virtually quoting verbatim what Obama has said places Romney into a conservative corner?

We need fresh, new blood, not a retread quoting the libs.
