Once upon a time, people who wanted to be president were not expected to admit it in public. This mask of false indifference had to be dropped when the rise of primaries forced candidates to campaign actively for the office.

Most of Freerepublic, including it's founder, are tiny and irrelevant?

Wow I guess we are blessed that your greatness takes time out to wallow with us little people...

But I do agree with you, these boys will do well with 21st Century “Republicans”.

We will wait for you, and them, to come back to the Conservative fold, you are going to need us to remind you what that means, and very soon I fear.

Mean while, bless you, your grace...

[ejonesie22]

Miserably...

[ConservativeMan55]

I can already see The Drudge Headline now in about 3 to 4 weeks.

Combined with a picture of McCain and Romney.

“It’s Mitt!”

hehehe

In case Drudge freeps he can use that as the headline. :)

[Plutarch]

Go back and read my post, and you'll see I was referring to Barack Obama as a liberal.

Ahhg, you're right! Sorry about that, the greater fool am I. There was no particular shortage of posts on the thread referring to Romney as liberal, and I found yours by Ctrl + F, search for "liberal". I guess it didn't occur to me that anyone would be referring to Obama as liberal, which is as obvious as is the sky is blue, water is wet, and the sun is hot.

[ConservativeMan55]

LOL that is your argument

[Diogenesis]

Not ONLY did Myth Romney (docile lamb of the DNC)
impose HillaryCARE=RomneyCARE (which is bankrupting Massachusetts
unless the Feds agree to a billion dollar per year bailout)
but he did it WITH GLEE.

At the end of the day, those pictures speak thousands of words.
And they are corroborated by the words of the Democrats.

Sen. John Kerry to Don Imus on RomneyCARE=HillaryCARE: "I like this health care bill".

Sen. Hillary Clinton on RomneyCARE=HillaryCARE: "To come up with a bipartisan plan in this polarized environment is commendable."

Romney is a liberal Democrat's Liberal.

"I'd rather have 4 years of President for Life Didi Obama than McRomney. "

Thank you for being honest. That about sums up the entire argument of the Romney haters.

They would rather have Marxist Obama.

So what's Plan B?

I didn't write Plan A.

[ejonesie22]

Saying Mitt is more conservative than McCain is not saying a whole lot...

[ConservativeMan55]

If you voted for the Huckster you wrote plan A

[ejonesie22]

He holds that position for now, but his tendency to seek expediency over principle is getting to be legendary.

[ConservativeMan55]

So now Romney goes from a “socialist lib” to more Conservative than McCain?

Which is it?

I say he’s more Conservative. Do you have a problem with Mitt being more Conservative than McCain?

[ConservativeMan55]

But you’re calling it a flip-flop.

You can’t call it that until he flops back.

For now all he has done is change his position.

TO OUR SIDE!

[Mojave]

So now Romney goes from a “socialist lib” to more Conservative than McCain?

Short trip.

[Mojave]

If you voted for the Huckster you wrote plan A

I didn't, but Huckster would be a conservative by your slippery "standards."

[Diogenesis]

Two issues.
1) If it was not a flipflop, then why did Romney not run
for Governor of Utah?

2) Stop claiming FReepers who disagree with you are ‘haters’.

[nmh]

The ONLY way I can vote for LIBERAL, McPain is if CONSERVATIVE Mitt is VP. Otherwise, I stay home and don’t vote.

[ConservativeMan55]

I’m not saying he actually went from a “socialist lib” to more Conservative than McCain.

I’m implying that the Romney haters have a problem with him being more Conservative than McCain.

Not sure why. Maybe their VP pick didn’t make it far and they’re just upset over that.

Well your anger over that could put Obama in the White House.

“Is that Romney and his senior wife?”

No, that is his present and only wife of I believe 35 years. She is also the mother of ALL of his children. :)
