Romney moves up as Potential McCain VP
NPR ^ | July 20 | Ron Elving

Posted on 07/20/2008 9:07:44 AM PDT by ConservativeMan55

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.

>>>>>And I think RM you know better than to say I am OK with Mitt, after all I am one of the chief bashers, don't you know that?....

Didn't think I'd have to spell it out. Thought we were just joining in a bit of political hammering of Romney with some good old fashioned sarcasm. Next time I'll include the proverbially, [/sarc]. LOL

Bottom line. The shifting political tides should never effect real deal conservatives. Those polls being posted should be a huge wake up call to conservatives everywhere. When you have pseudo conservatives speaking for the conservative movement, watch out!

Instead of unsupported exit polls why dont you post all the actual voting numbers...

Oh, and by the way...

How come Romney’s numbers seem to always add up to 110 or 120 in those exit polls of yours ???

While other Republicans only had 70-80 ????

Mitt has done very well in private life, and he saved the Olympics.

With MASSIVE federal bailouts. You left that off.

Exit polls are irrelevant except to those who wish to obscure the truth (you).

Romney lost and Romney adds nothing.
In fact, Romney's polarization here on FReeRepublic is a barometer
of what will happen if Sen. McCain stumbles and takes the duplicitous panderer Romney as his losing VP.

Have you noticed that readily both Romney ....supporters label any criticism of their candidate as bigotry?

Despite your endless spam, the truth is:
Florida: Sen McCain won. Romney = Loser.

No wonder you have to rely on flawed, erroneous exit polls.

THAT is Romney big secret.

Federal bailouts for --- Romney's fascist socialized medicine.
Federal bailouts for --- Romney's coverup of the BigDIG.
Federal bailouts for --- Romney's "saving" of the Olympics.
Federal bailouts for --- the next of Romney's clever SCHEMES.

Be careful, these Mitt haters do not want to see facts. They know he is a Mormon, and their preachers have told them that is all they need to know.

ANSWER: Romney cheats.

For example, why did the Diebold Machines in New Hampshire show large anomalous votes ONLY for Romney?
Romney got 7.5% greater votes when machines were used over ballots compared to all other candidates.
(The others had variations of .09 to 2.6%)

The standard deviation was 1.23, so 7.5% is WAY outside the norm.

I was really disappointed when Romney gave his speech as he bowed out on ‘concession night’. He would have won the nomination if he been bold enough to be that guy throughout the campaign. He was not, is not, and as a result, I don’t think he can help McCain, at least not on the ticket. Make him a cabinet member, maybe.

I don't think it has effected the real deal conservative to any great degree long term. Those of us here on FR and other such places who are actively paying attention are not fooled despite the best efforts of the supporters of these moderates, and the others, they are not paying attention. So in effect you are right, it should be a wake up call, but the masses keep hitting the damn snooze button. They will wake up when they can't pay their bills and interest rates are double digits.

24% + 21% + 32% + 44% = 121%

Fascinating “numbers” for Romney.

I don’t know, I have some in my congregation, but I won’t ask them. That seems very rude.

34% + 34% + 35% + 48% = 151%

Your Romney “numbers” get better and better.

Or maybe you should ask my Nephew a few streets down, in another congregation. He adopted a black baby. Even more rude!
