There’s also a lot of idiots here on FR pimping Willard, too.
Of course the Left is pimping Mitt. Mitt’s been MIA the last two years, while Sarah and others took the fight to Dems and Obama. He’ll have the MSM support in the primaries, for sure. Then, if he gets the nomination, they’ll turn on him in a flash and go for the kill.
Remember that Romney's second place showing in 2008, nine points behind Mike Huckabee, was considered a serious setback for the former Massachusetts governor; he had campaigned aggressively in the state and, through the summer and fall of 2007, had been favored to win. Meanwhile, John McCain, was able to gain momentum from his fourth place finish (with 13 percent of the vote, just behind Fred Thompson), because he had not made a full-fledged effort in the state; that he cracked double digits was a surprise, and the momentum helped him to fend off Romney in New Hampshire five days later. The new National Journal story probably represents an effort by Romney's team to set the '12 bar in Iowa somewhere near the McCain '08 level.Thanks for reminding me of those nightmare days. Huckabee, McCain, Romney... barf, barf, barf... triple barf.
I stuck with the party through Dull Dole, Juan McLame, hell even “compassionat conservative” and “No new taxes” Bush’s
But I’ll be DAMNED if I’ll support Romney, Newt, Huckabee, or any other old RINO dog and pony show.
Just what we don’t need; “Spudnik” Obama vs “Dudnik” Romney.
I’m no fan of Mittens, and wouldn’t consider voting for him unless it was down to him and he and Obama. However, I think there’s a large chance he ends up with the nomination. In fact, I think he’s likely the odds-on favorite.
