Mitt Romney and Evander Holyfield had a charity boxing match last night:
-snip-
Holyfield was declared the victor, but perhaps only because Romney saved his best jabs for Hillary Clinton, Harry Reid and Candy Crowley.
-snip-
Mitt Romney with the joke about wanting his fight against @holyfield to be "as clean as Hillary Clinton's server"
-snip-
Romney after Holyfield fight: "I'm ready to take on Harry Reid's exercise equipment now.
-snip-
Romney, with some bite post-fight: "I'm happy to fight anybody so long as Candy Crowley isn't the referee."
-snip-
Mitt Romney, winner by TKO.

> Why do the “It’s my turn” candidates always save their best material for after they’ve lost?
Because it wouldn’t be “statesmanlike”.
You should’ve done these jabs 4 years ago, Gov. Romney.
Too true, both of you.
Did any other washed-up Democrats fight Holyfield? How about Michael Dukakis or Al Gore?
I think that Gore is out of his weight class.
It would have taken more than dodging jabs in 2012 when he had the entire MSM in Obama's corner as well as the "Homers" who decided to stay home wishing for the new GOP Mesiah.............
If I didn’t know better, I’d say he sounds like he’s running.
With the MSM and the Homers aligned against him, Romney never stood a chance..........
That’s an interesting list of people to rib.
Why would he mention Crowley in that company? Good grief!
Sleep well when your lesser evils give Iran nukes and Israel ceases to be. It IS you that helped put them there.
“As the third round was about to begin, Tyson came out of his corner without his mouthpiece. Lane ordered Tyson back to his corner to insert it. Tyson inserted his mouthpiece, got back into position and the match resumed. Tyson began the third round with a furious attack. With forty seconds remaining in the round Holyfield got Tyson in a clinch, and Tyson rolled his head above Holyfield’s shoulder and bit Holyfield on his right ear, avulsing a one-inch piece of cartilage from the top of the ear, and spitting out the piece of ear on the ring floor.[3]
As Holyfield shrieked in pain and jumped in circles, he managed to push Tyson away at which Lane called for a time-out. As Holyfield turned to walk to his corner, Tyson shoved him from behind. Lane sent Tyson to a neutral corner as an enraged Holyfield gestured for Mills Lane to look at his bitten ear which was rapidly bleeding. The fight was delayed for several minutes as Lane debated what to do.
Lane’s original decision was to immediately disqualify Tyson, but after the ringside doctor determined that Holyfield was able to continue despite the massive bite, Lane announced he would be deducting two points from Tyson and the fight would continue. Bobby Czyz, who was calling the fight with Steve Albert for Showtime, said, “I wonder how this would have played in Mitch Halpern’s eyes,” and Albert told Czyz, “Oh my goodness, that’s a thought, Bobby.””

How does a failed 2012 GOP campaign equate to the idiotic statement you just made which has no relevance whatsoever?????,
Come on Norm, explain to me how I was responsible for putting Obama in office when it was YOU who likely stayed home and didn't vote........
Gee I duuno...maybe it has something to do with people electing RINOs having caused the situation. I mean it’s you lesser evils that pushed the GOP hard left by continuously electing their liberal candidates, not the people who stuck to conservative principles...or Democrats for that matter.
And here you are years later making excuses for it and still trashing conservatives that arent spineless.
Because slow witted first losers like Romney always think up stinging words after the fact.
And only then when they think it is something they HAVE to say in order to con people into paying attention to them.
Then try to explain to ME how I was responsible for Obama getting elected........
Tell me, did you support homosexual marriage, gun bans, and higher taxes?
Both Romney and Obama do.
Difference is, Romney will say anything and change his position to match nebulous “metrics”, then stab supporters in the back.
Just like Boehner, McConnell, Cochran, et al.
"Peeking Out From the McCain Wreckage: Mitt Romney"
"Someone's got to say it: IS MITT ROMNEY RESPONSIBLE FOR OBAMA'S VICTORY?"
"Vanity: Team Romney Sabotaged Palin and Continuing to Do So?"
"Romney Supporters Trashing Palin"
"Romney advisors sniping at Palin?"
Nope, Nope and Nope!
I wasn't aware that Rick Santorum was an advocate of all you have stated........
Please, correct me if I'm wrong.
