Kind of makes one wonder what kind of guy a bunch of liberals would vote for. Seems he either fooled all of thme or is trying to fool a bunch of us...
MA is weird in that the registered Democrats aren’t all liberals....lotta conservative Catholic Democrats.....and there’s a large chunk of “unenrolled” voters like myself.
...even 37% of MA voted for Bush the 2nd time around.
Shannon O’Brien was the Dennis Kucinich of 2002. :-)
Ronald Reagan took Massachusetts twice. Plus the fact that MA had had a Republican Governor for many, many years prior to Deval Patrick. It is a weird place, my home state.
MA voters have been hedging their bets since Volpe.
Nothing but a laundry list of talking points [spin] for the liberal former Governor of Massachusetts, falsely presented as somehow being news. Tacky.
It’s from a press release. Hence, it was intended for the news.
Deceptive liberal spin.
If this is spin, what do we call the bilge you spam posts with?
Massachusetts voters in 2002 were looking for a brilliant financial manager and fiscal conservative to clean up the huge budget deficit mess and improve the faltering economy in the state. They weren't counting on the social conservative ideology that Romney holds as his core values. Ann Coulter said, "And you have to say about Romney, he tricked liberals into voting for him. I like a guy -- I like a guy who hoodwinks liberals so easily."
All the conservative policies and actions from Gov. Romney now under attack or reversed in Massachusetts show what a force he was in that state to hold back the tide of liberalism. The incoming Democrat Gov. Deval Patrick has opened the flood gates.
A “bunch of liberals” voted for Reagan too.
I believe that’s because when a conservative who can articulate very well his positions, such as Reagan did and Romney does, many registered Democrats find they’re not so liberal after all.
Romney is clearly the most conservative of the media’s chosen three “front-runners”, which to quote another solid conservative is sort of like being the “tallest midget in the room”.
Give me a break EV. You post that “Mitt Romney Deception” set of anti-Romney talking points on every single Romney thread and then you call posting one set of pro-Romney talking points “tacky”?
It takes a lot of chutzpah, I'll admit, for Mitt Romney, the guy who used his executive power to implement gay marriage, [threatening the justices of the peace with firing if they wouldn't perform them,] to brag about his "accomplishments" in this area.

Sure. You bet. That's why the Romney administration declared two homosexual men to be the adoptive "parents of the year" for 2006.
Hmmm...I wonder why other states are having to deal with homosexuals who were "married" in Mitt's Massachusetts, then.
The justices said they would decide only whether a lower court can recognize a same-sex marriage performed in another state for the purpose of handling a divorce petition. Lawyers for both sides say the divorce case won't decide whether gay couples can get married in Rhode Island.
