Look at this bit of childishness from the Romney campaign and tell me why they deserve respect rather than derision at this moment:

CAMPAIGN MANAGER BETH MYERS ON THE WEST VIRGINIA CONVENTION

Boston, MA – Today, Romney for President Campaign Manager Beth Myers issued the following statement regarding the outcome of West Virginia’s Republican Party convention:

“Unfortunately, this is what Senator McCain’s inside Washington ways look like: he cut a backroom deal with the tax-and-spend candidate he thought could best stop Governor Romney’s campaign of conservative change.

“Governor Romney had enough respect for the Republican voters of West Virginia to make an appeal to them about the future of the party based on issues. This is why he led on today’s first ballot. Sadly, Senator McCain cut a Washington backroom deal in a way that once again underscores his legacy of working against Republicans who are interested in championing conservative policies and rebuilding the party.”

I’m shocked to see that hardcore politics is being played out in West Virginia. [/sarc]

From your posts it's pretty obvious why the GOP left you....

Your sad and foolish embrace of the McCain/Huckster alliance gives us the likely choice of the unhinged, very unconservative McCain or the hag.

Congrats on your depth of reasoning.

I really don’t see your point Petronski. Romney’s campaign simply pointed out that it took a secret deal between McCain and Huckadummy to defeat him.

i do not care about the Romney campaign. i am talking about those of us, who have been at your side up until now in this ordeal, who have cast our lot in with Romney thinking that he is the only hope to save us from McCain. just think about us when you do your gloating, ok? realize that, by and large, freepers are heartsick over the way this is working, so the crowing over pettiness wears thin. of course you don’t have to, i just thought i’d say something based on our past association, that’s all.

Putting the most favorable spin on your outcome by putting a bad spin on your opponents actions...is crying?

Aren’t you part of the crowd telling Romney’s crowd to accept that it’s “just politics”?

Isn’t this statement “just politics” as well?

Or is it only whining when the other side is doing it?
