I have looked at the Wikipedia entry on Mitt Romney. I am hoping that I can learn what fieldmarshaldj knows about Mitt Romney that I do not know.

You’ve been here, but you’re not paying attention.

“I’m a Conservative.” — Mitt Romney

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Baloney.

You can check out my homepage. If you want, you can do a search of my name, as I’ve been posting more than “general dislike” concerning Romney. That should give you plenty of “specifics” that you claim I haven’t been posting.

lol

Yes, Romney has the fight I would hope to bring to the Democrats.

Fairly ironic that the land of the eastern rino is going for Mitt and not the western rino. I’ll take it, though!

"Yes, Romney has the fight I would hope to bring to the Democrats."

Like he had as Governor ? Oh, wait, he only enacted their agenda and expanded their majorities to almost 100% control. Yeah, he fights for his own lust for power, screw everybody else. His reign of error could be summed up, "Apres moi, le deluge."

Now there’s no denying McCain is lousy, but worse than Romney ? That may be the funniest thing I’ve heard so far this year.

Maybe I need to find some really lame jokes and try them on you, since you seem to be easily amused.

McCain is bad enough that if he wins the Democrats will have no meaningful opposition in the general election. Perhaps Romney is no better, but it would be impossible for him to be worse. Given that Romney cannot possibly be worse than McCain, I don't know why you feel the need to attack him.

Astonishing. I mean, we’ve had hundreds, if not thousands, of threads, probably over 1,000,000 posts and they all of a sudden want us to go do their research for them when they’ve been here all along and if we do go find the material, they respond with “BS”, “I don’t believe it” or “You want Hillary to be President.”

And the big one

You are a bigot if you dont love MittyTwitty

The link below shows results coming in as the Maine caucuses (or is it cauci) are held. They started yesterday and go through tomorrow. Guess folks need time to get through the snow. Maine is beautiful country, but sure has lots of white pearly dew drops every winter!

Here’s hoping Mitt takes it all!

Wow at least this state isn’t buying into the media/McCain scam. If Romney holds his own this Tuesday and wins three or four states along with a good chunk of delegates out of California then he’s not out of it by a longshot.
