Ross Douthat: Everything’s Coming Up Romney [Massachusetts Dreamin']

The New York Times ^ | March 8, 2011 | Ross Douthat

Most people don't write their dreams down, like Ross does.

[Uncle Miltie]

0bamaCare = RomneyCare.

0bama says so.

I believe him.

I will not be shackled by Romney any more than I will by 0bama.

I will never vote for Romney under any circumstances. He is more dangerous a Socialist than 0bama, because he pretends to come from our side of the aisle.

[MeganC]

I am NOT voting for Romney. If, in the unlikely event he wins the nomination I am still NOT voting for him.

[Mears]

bfl

[dirtboy]

The NY Times will push for Romney to win the primary, and then will turn on him for the general.

If you want to know who they truly fear, look at who they are savaging now.

[GlockThe Vote]

To stay home and give obama a second term is inexcusable.

[Celtic Cross]

Most likely, Obama's campaign organizers told him that Romney is his most dangerous opponent, and that he should try and neutralize him somehow.

Which tells us two things; A) Obama's campaign organizer is an idiot, and B) They may not be watching Palin, Bachmann, or any of the other true conservatives very closely. Which may work towards our advantage.

[MeganC]

Voting for Romney in the primary *IS* giving Obama a second term.

And if RomneyCare Mitt wins the general election, what’s the difference?

[Celtic Cross]

Romney is certainly a RINO, but is he a blatant, raging, unabashed, America-hating, ideological socialist?

I doubt it. Obama is certainly worse.

[AU72]

Romney is the 2012 McCain ver 2.0

[Dagnabitt]

The major difference: A RINO can possibly nominate a good SCOTUS justice. Obama cannot.

Scalia is old. Kennedy and Thomas aren't spring chickens either. The thought of Hussein selecting their replacement is nauseating.

[freekitty]

Are we going to let the powers that be choose for us like they have been?

[E. Pluribus Unum]

Just say "no" to Mittney.

[GlockThe Vote]

I’m not a romney fan, but to compare him to Obama is ridiculous.

[MeganC]

I’m not going to hold my nose and vote for Obama-lite.

If the GOP won’t put up a conservative then they have no right to my vote.

And RomneyCare, Big-Dig Mitt is not a conservative.

[MeganC]

“I’m not a romney fan, but to compare him to Obama is ridiculous.”

John McCain liked Obama.

John McCain likes Romney.

Ridiculous?

[GlockThe Vote]

Exactly - I am not Mitt Fan at all, but if he wins the primary - anyone on this site staying home is as bad as the worst communist marxist voting for obama. I will not vote for him in the primary, but if he wins, i will try to help him win the general.

There is way too much at stake to allow a 2nd obama term.

[GlockThe Vote]

Yes - Kagan - Sotomayor - Holdren, Sunstein, etc.

[Diogenesis]

Wrong. If Romney is the candidate, NO ONE WILL VOTE FOR HIM.

We will work against him. Got that? You betcha.

[DeskCaptain]

I think the article is way off when it suggests everything’s going according to plan for Romney. If anything, the discontent about Romneycare has made it even less likely Romney will get the nomination. I don’t know who will win, but I don’t think it will end up being Romney.
