Romney/Powell 2012
Self ^ | July 21, 2009 | My warped brain

What? You don't like Mitt Romney? Why not? He brought the finest health care in the world to the citizens of Mass and it's free!

Abortion? I think he's against it today. Back when he was running for governor he had to be for it, Ted Kennedy and other liberals forced him to be that way.

Just look at his hair dammit and then tell me, if you still can, that you wouldn't vote for him. If you still wouldn't vote for him you must be one of them there haters and bigots and with Powell on the ticket that'd make you racist too.

Get with the program. Romney/Powell in 2012!

I've been lurking since 2003 waiting and watching for the right time to post this. The mods are all asleep now, they'll never catch me.

Romney/Powell - Would be a half white, half black, disaster.

Sound familiar?

But seriously ot may be good that Romney is polling well and is seen as a front runner. As a Palin supporter I don’t want her to take all the fire. She’s in the perfect position with yesterday’s polling. If she was way ahead of the field like say by 20 points, who knows how much more violent the attacks could be. It will also make for a healthy primary.

Palin 2012

I don’t understand how Romney is polling so well considering the state of health care in Mass.

A lot of southern democrats are more conservative than northern republicans. He is definitely in this bunch.

Powell would never run against his buddy 0bama.

Romney should pick Kay Bailey Hutchison for is running mate.
She’s going to be out of a job soon.

It’s true he’s too comfortable with a lot of socialist programs for any real conservative’s taste. But unfortunately, so is most the country, so anyone who’s even remotely electable will be too comfortable with socialist programs for our taste. When conservatives refuse to support or vote for an electable candidate, it just ends up handing elections to far-left candidates like Obama.

“I like Romney...the hatred of him by some conservatives appears to be over the top...I sense some underlying anti-mormon bigotry”

I do not hate Romney ( I voted for him in the NJ primary against McCain ), and in general I like Mormons. But I do think that Romney is a slick synthetic phony who would say anything to get elected. He is a capable manager, and would be a big improvement over Obama. But then I also think Joe Biden would be an improvement over Obama. Biden for POTUS in 2009!

“I see a lot of positives in Romney (especially compared to Obama)......”

Honestly, Obama makes EVERY GOP candidate look good to me. They get better with every beer. I’ll need to be careful with that :)

However some pundits actually think the key to GOP revival involves kissing up and begging for Colin Powell to come back.

Really? That's the first time I've heard that joke.

There's plenty of that around, but it's usually confined to the "Religion Forum."

I'm a Mormon, and I do not care for Romney: too phoney, too eager to please everyone, too squishy.

My feelings exactly. He'd be a good Commerce Secretary or an "economic turnaround czar," perhaps, but not a good president.
