Remind you of another Massachusetts politician? "Can I Get Me a Hunting License Here?"

He’s whatever you want him to be...a true actor.

But don’t quote me on that...ask my lawyer.

Duplicate thread. Already posted.

And calling Romney names doesn’t make Thompson any more credible or any more conservative.

Looks like they’re throwing up identical hit pieces at Romney on SeeBS and the Compost. Great.

He now says his pro-choice leanings were a mistake. He has become one of the country’s highest-profile opponents of gay marriage, and he warns against taking Al Gore’s side regarding action on global warming.

sounds good to me...

“Hearts were broken,” says Seth Kaplan of the Conservation Law Foundation. “That’s the best way I can put it. And when someone is an unexpected advocate, like Romney was, it builds up your hopes and breaks your heart even more.”

bwhahahahhaah greenies ‘hearts were broken’? bhahaah NOW that’s what im talkin about.....
sounds like mitt has the right idea....tellem just enuff to sucker ‘em in...and then pull the string....couldn’t happen to a finer group....

finally, Machiavellianism a WORKIN’ for THE GOOD GUYS...!
not bad.....not bad at all...

The people of Massachusetts will remember Mitt Romney as a person who came into office during a financial emergency, balanced the budget without raising taxes and found a way to get health insurance to all our citizens without a government takeover,”

what the EFF is there NOT TO like about this guy?

Some think he was feigning his moderation then and is revealing his true self now. But it’s a safe bet that Romney would have passed a lie detector test in both incarnations. And that speaks to his consummate skills as a salesman, the best of whom believe so deeply in their product that they internalize its merits — which is why they never sound like they’re selling.

im SOLD....sounds like if there’s anybody out there able to out slick the left it’s MIT....this is the kind of talent we need....
if he picks DUNCAN as his v/p he’s IN....

lets all get behind this guy!

I have to laugh at your self-righteous attitude. You glom onto FRed posts all the time and throw mud, and you accuse me of name-calling? LOL

IMO, Romney is the Republican version of Bill Clinton. With either Fred or Rudy, what you see is what you get. If Romney is so “changeable” now, how can we know that he will do what he says he will do once he gets in office?

If the pro-aborts, homosexual activists, leftist greens, global warming advocates, gun grabbers, high taxers and big government, anti-war socialists are against Romney, heck, I’m starting to really like the guy..........

I could possibly bite my lip and vote for him (in the general only), but not Rudy. Although I have my doubts he could win.

Does Massachusetts even have a runoff law?

As I recall, Vermont has one of sorts — strictly speaking if the leading candidate receives less than 50%, then the decision goes to the state legislature. It happened a few years ago, with Douglas (R) getting 49% or so and the Democrat getting maybe 42%. The Democrat waived his right to the decision going to the legislature, even though Democrats controlled it at the time. It didn’t matter much; Douglas was a RINO as I recall.

Connecticut does not — Rowland (R) won with about 38% one year, with the rest going to the Democrat and then to the Connecticut Party (a Lowell Weicker-inspired party) candidate.
