Nope. Romney ran a wet noodle campaign.
BTW, I just went over the news looking at headlines about Trump. The media is still going bonkers over Trump.
I see Trump is going after McCain in his upcoming election. He could even finance his rival. Goodbye McCain LoL.
The only time Romney stood up for himself was during the first debate, which surprise, he won. Then he went into wuss mode and got clobbered. By the way, Trump was quoted the other day as saying he had a Gucci store that was worth more than Romney...gotta love Trump...
I won't even try arguing on whether Trump is conservative or liberal. I personally don't think that he is liberal.
That said: (1) Right now he is saying everything we here at FR feel about illegal immigration, !Jeb!, GOPe, McQueeg, and other squishy republicans. (2) At the present, he is the ONLY one (aside from occasional remarks of support from Cruz), saying these things. (3) He is taking a lot of heat from both sides for saying the very things we believe. (4) Since he is the only one saying what needs to be said, I will have his back. If other candidates wish to chime in and speak to us and for us, perhaps they will get some traction and support. What I am hearing from the current field is either condemnation or nothing. That is not leadership, it cowardice.
It is campaigning for free and it is why he is in the lead.
I dislike McCain more than any other elected republican. He is classic Manchurian candidate, because he is the enemy within.
And most of it free publicity
New Yorker front page
Tweet wars
The salary bet with minion
And numerous news agencies: he will _ he won’t— he is _ he isn’t
The winner is Trump. Who seems to own property in everyone’s mind
I think Trump is a freeper. He’s pretty feisty, and that’s what this country needs right now.
Twitter wars is the new way of campaigning. It’s damned cheap, and if Trumpster is anything, he’s thrifty.
Ouch, that one’s gotta hurt. I love how he slammed that RINO husband of hers. Now that guy was useless.
At some point he’s going to need to produce comprehensive policies and definitive positions on other issues.
Right! I can’t wait for the debates. While everyone is weighing their words, he will charge in with abandon. If there was ever a time to charge in, it is now. The politically correct claptrap has worn this country down.
Romney was pretty hard hitting when it came to knocking off conservatives.
The winner is Trump. Who seems to own property in everyone’s mind
How can Trump be right on so many things?
You are Smokin’ Hot! I’ve had company for much of the day and am catching up. Thanks for all the good stuff!

And gets more press doing it..more bang for the buck.
>>>At some point he’s going to need to produce comprehensive policies and definitive positions on other issues. We’ll see how he fares then<<<
Don’t worry, Trump has a bunch of very Competent People, not Political Hacks like Rove and the other Talking Heads, working on his Position Papers as we speak. You can be sure that Carolyn Kennedy isn’t one of them, like, you know. LOL
I believe he hinted as much in his Phoenix Speech. Not sure of he said anything at the ridiculous Liberal Hyena Press questioning afterward.
Remember, he made a point of telling the Media that he was releasing his Financials, and he did the very next week as promised. He even broached the new Third Rail of Politics, abolishing and replacing Obamacare with a Market Based Healthcare System that he wants to cover any American that needs it.
Although it sounded like Socialized Medicine, we already have that with Obamacare with the Blessing of the SCOTUS.
Trump wants to make Healtcare Better and Cost effective such as allowing Competition over State lines. Republicans have been saying that for Years, yet it never got done, just like building a Southern Border Fence. Talk is cheap, and it has been for a very long time.
No Politician is going to cancel the Obamacare Healthcare Coverage Entitlement without providing an alternative. The Battle would be epic and the Propaganda Mills would be working overtime. I am nearly 62 Years Old and I have no recollection of an Entitlement ever being eliminated.
Some people think it can happen, but the old saying about Spitting in one Hand and Wishing in the Other still applies.
For the record, Cruz is the only Candidate that got some of my Money, but it will interesting to see if Trump can weather the Storm of his own Creation.
He has been lurking at FRee Republic
