I have always liked Romney. He is pragmatic, and he is a true conservative. Unfortunately, he hails from my area and the only way to win here these days is to compromise. Certain FReepers despise him. I do not understand all of that. But some of the animosity is misdirected.

I like Mitt, but he simply will never be the man.

Romney cannot defeat the forces of darkness in this nation.

Scott Brown did that. He won.

Scott Brown did what Romney could not do. He won a Senate seat and he saved our country.

For now.

Everything has changed since Tuesday. That is everything changed a year ago, but we put the brakes on it here.

I expect much more from the rest of the FR community and their neighbors when the voting starts again.

Palin, on the other hand.....

I say go Sarah.

RE: he is a true conservative

I have to tell you, I have no idea how anyone could say that. His record completely denies that statement. I could give a rats petootie what he says, politicians say a lot of things. I look at the record and his is anything but conservative.

I am so thankful that the Kennedy machine is now broken we can thank Scott Brown and Mitt for assisting Scott excellent team work.

Even if Mitt does not run for office the fact that he is there helping others to restore the constitution to this great nation.

Some day we will stand before the Creator and answer for our behavior here on earth I am sure the Ten Commandments will be in play and bearing false witness will be one of them!

Did RINO Romney compromise ???

Is that all he did ???

Or is “compromise” just a white wash, a curtain invented for this past election cycle to “excuse” his past 60 years of liberal embracing of the issues ???

RINO Romney is life long pro-abortion and a lot of other liberal political leanings...

RINO Romney is not a conservative...

How do you figure that, look at him before he re registered Republican in 1993, and ask yourself what was so despicable about President Reagan that Mitt Romney felt the passion to take such a step as dropping his Republican registration in the first place, because of Reagan in the 1980s.

Why before he was on any-one's radar was he only giving money to, and even doing fund raising, solely for liberal democrat candidates?

Mitt Romney was always liberal before 2006, when he gave up on being reelected in Massachusetts and started running for the Republican primary.

and he is a true conservative.

Also, ask yourself, how did he manage to stay pro abortion from 1970 until 2005, changing only with that unconvincing conversion story, based on a dry conversation that the other person says never happened. Do you ponder why nothing moved him during all those decades of pro life activism and conflicts by real conservatives, and why the fund raising for Planned Parenthood? why was he so aggressive with his homosexual agenda?

Mitt Romney was not just playing down, or trying to conceal some hidden conservatism from a liberal constituency, he was aggressively against conservatism and he is today, if you notice his current "conservatism" only emerges for public display, but look at the hidden parts of his current political activism, he is still striving to forward an anti conservative agenda, and the candidates nationally needed to assist him in that goal.
