Romney: Why Don't They Like Me?
CNN ^ | Dec 2, 2011

Posted on 12/10/2011 8:23:29 PM PST by campaignPete R-CT

Time Magazine's latest cover is out, with a photo of Republican presidential contender Mitt Romney. The tag line: "Why don't they like me?"

In a blog post accompanying the cover's release, Time columnist Joe Klein writes, "Romney has problems he can't do anything about. He's wealthy, a member of the Establishment in a party that is trending very strongly toward right-wing populism. He's also a Mormon, which is rarely mentioned by Republicans, but is an obvious disadvantage among the party's evangelical protestant base.

The fact that my team is campaigning against you in Rindge, NH .... could that be one of the reasons?

Well gee, Mitt...

Maybe it’s because you are a wishy-washy RINO dork.

This is an old cartoon, so don't forget the "Pro-Communist Health Care" and "Anti-Communist Health Care" podiums. Oh! And the "Pro-Government Union" and "Anti-Government Union", and the "Pro-Global Warming" and "Anti-Global Warming" podiums, too:

He's also a Mormon, which is rarely mentioned by Republicans, but...

Oh, I get it. I'm against the RINO because I'm a bigot.
Of course, if you oppose the Marxist it's because you're a racist. You wouldn't support Hillary! because you're sexist.

Sensing a trend here? One can't have divergent philosophical positions without being called names with these folks. This simply is manipulation. I'm not buying.

Cuz as Gov of Mass he was first in gay marriage and socialized medicine, which destroyed health care there. Eww - No thanks, Mitt!

Myth has "US President" on his bucket-list.

He's not a man of principle or vision or deeply-held beliefs.

He just wants to be President because that would really make him somebody.

I’m absolutely sure it has nothing to do with the fact that your religious organization has direct ties to the Mountain Meadows Massacre in which one incident involved a little girl running from the scene being slaughtered in cold blood. Nah, that’s not it.

If all the Mutt Romney’s could vote he wouldn’t need to campaign.
