If Romney ignores Benghazi, does he deserve to win the election?
11/1/12 | Vanity

Posted on 11/01/2012 12:25:33 PM PDT by pabianice

With the Rancid Media protecting Obama from any discussion --- hell, any NEWS -- of his lethal failure in Libya, does not Romney have to bring this into the campaign? If he does not, does he deserve to win the election? If he does not, can he win the election?

I believe his (Romney's) failure to pursue the Bengazi Treason, coupled with the opportunity to put the State-Run-Media on the spot for hiding it, will be his biggest blunder of the Campaign.

In fact, this may cost him the Election, IMHO.

Deserve has nothing to do with it. Do you want 4 more years of Obama?

The answer is: NOPE.

Romney will be a quiet about this as the MSM. The only way he talks about Benghazi, is if he’s asked - and even then, it’s not going to be with the kind of vociferous outrage that the treason deserves.

Romney IS Ruling Class after all.

No candidate should drop his campaign plan for an issue that is classified. Classified means he can’t get any inside information. He has no power.

No. And I don’t believe for one second he’s ignoring it. I’ll bet all I own that he and Ryan have shed the same tears as us and they can’t wait to get in there and punish the guilty. And the “talk” is behind the scenes with Generals as it should be.

He's mentioned it. Let others prosecute this.

What's the realistic alternative to Romney?

Oh Yeah...

I'd love Romney to have access to what is not shredded or burned.

Nope. It wouldn’t help Romney. Let things keep playing out like they are.

Romney is doing things very well. Why change?

Good Lord. Apparently the Monday-morning quarterbacking starts on Thursday, nowadays.

It’s God that makes leaders and unmakes them. If Romney gets in and fights against God, he will take a rather large fall.

Romney was the first to bring this bs treason into the open, and he caught hell fire from the left and their pit bull mediots.

If he has inside information, he should say something. If he doesn’t, he should let those couple of reporters who are on it keep digging.

Newt and McCain are into the issue. Let them run with it.

Actually he gets classified briefings. However he doesn’t have the power to de-classify any of the information. Hence he’s rather in a spot on this subject. He likely knows a lot more than he is allowed to say.

He doesn’t have to say anything, it will only come across as negative. Drudge, which reaches a larger audiance than the MSM and Romney himself combined, is already carrying the water for Mitt. I don’t know a single person unaware of Bengazi.

10 years ago, I’d have said, Yes, he deserves to lose for not attacking the risen one. Now, however, I know better — the American voter is an ignorant pig-dog, (note who occupies the White House) and if Mitt says one negative thing about the messiah, Katie Couric will, in 10 seconds flat!, successfully turn the ENTIRE election into a referendum on one thing and one thing alone: is Mitt a big meanie head? The pig-dogs will nod like the retards they are, and Mitt will lose.

Since he cannot trust any of the information he is fed from any briefings he has, no. Anything he says can make him look foolish as the Obama administration can select or make up any information to leak. While we have no way of checking that what comes from the intelligence agency ‘leaks’ is true. There were times before the first debate where he missed initiative, but he has since been running on all cylinders.

Nope, Romney shouldn’t win. In fact he should drop out. Since he won’t talk about the murder of 4 Americans, he should withdraw so we can re-elect the person culpable in those murders instead. Obviously, not talking about it in the campaign is a much more serious dereliction of duty than actually committing the crime.

Geez.
