Where Mitt is ex-Governor.
Dropping like a rock is his support there.

It never ceases to amaze me how a person who has decided to support a candidate all too often arrives at a point where FACTS are meaningless to them. Such is true with those who support this Romney character. There has been one example after another that proves that Mitt Romney isn't even a Republican much less a conservative and that he has repeatedly lied about his positions. Yet, well meaning Republicans still support this flip-flopping liar. Here is yet another article that shows that Mitt Romney is the single worse candidate the GOP field has today.
David Lightman of the McClatchy Newspaper chain asks this question: Exactly how Reaganesque is Romney? And the answer is a decided NOT AT ALL.
A few excerpts of this article:
"I take inspiration from the strength Ronald Reagan talked about," Romney said. "It was his view that the right way to overcome challenges was for the country to strengthen itself."And...Yet Romney wasn't always such a Reagan fan.
In 1994, when he ran for the U.S. Senate in Massachusetts, he said, "I was an independent during the time of Reagan-Bush. I'm not trying to return to Reagan-Bush."
Romney spent years in the state registered as "unenrolled," or unaffiliated with a political party, and in 1992 he voted for former Sen. Paul Tsongas, a liberal Democrat, in the Massachusetts Democratic presidential primary.And...
Romney replied: "Look, I was an independent during the time of Reagan-Bush. I'm not trying to return to Reagan-Bush. My positions don't talk about the things you suggest they talk about. This isn't a political issue."Romney has lied about being a hunter, he has lied about his not supporting the baby killers at Planned Parenthood, he even lied about his father marching with Martin Luther King, Jr. He led as Governor of Massachusetts as a center left executive yet now claims that he is a conservative.
Yet, all these flip-flops, all these lies and his supporters stick their fingers in their ears and scream "LA LA LA" at the top of their voices. So, here is the thing. Romney is not Reagan, he is far more like Clinton. Because during the first Clinton run lie after lie was revealed and his supporters simply refused to take stock of their man. They voted for him despite the lies, the rapes, all his past troubles were ignored.
Mitt Romney is Bill Clinton without the sex crimes.
So Freds flip flops are ok?
Romney is no Conservative . The Huckster and McPain have a better track record ....that’s pathetic .
Let’s hear them ....
I say you are just a jerk.
I don’t post stupid article attacking your candidate.
I understood your post, I did, however, write the wrong thing. I also was talking about “before,” though, as the context of the post clearly shows.
Fred has changed views on immigration for one. You give him a pass but attack other candidates. The same rules should apply to all.
Name one person in politics who never changed a position.
Man, you are right about that wild spin.
The “his wife did it” claim was hilarious especially in light of the photos that show Mitt at a Planned Parenthood fundraiser in 1994!!!
And is there a REASON I should care what you do?
Given that you’re still talking about “before,” I’m not sure you ever actually did understand my post. Oh well, doesn’t matter.
Yeah it’s out of control . Romney is the Dims gift that keeps on giving ...
Romney has changed all of his positions , he is a flip-flopper , panderer , and fictional storyteller all rolled into one ....
Many people are coming to Romney because of the continued biased bashing around here of posters trying to bring him down, merely to support their own candidate.
That is how I came to Romney. No one could possibly be as bad as you pack dogs make him out to be.
You use distortions, biased news, lies and deceit. That is not conservative. Those are the tricks of the left.
It is a shame that you have to mainly use leftest news articles to stomp on Mitt. You have literally become an extension of the left.
If you were a conservative of any value, you wouldn’t spend all days on end trashing another candidate.
You are certainly entitled to your biased opinion.
Dear TheLion, thank you. You are so right. They seem to have gone past the right back to the left edge. Also personal attacks on a poster leave big question marks in my mind as to personal integrity.
Biased is right . Biased for a true Conservative candidate ... Fred Thompson .
Go ahead and keep touting that Liberal Romney and see how far it gets you .
He posted a thread. You attacked him. Those are tricks of Myth Romney and his fake troopers.
They have no class or personal integrity, just hate in their hearts for Romney.
The main reason is that he is kicking their candidate’s butt.
They will do and say anything to bring this great man down.
