Are there really still those who support flip flopping abortion advocate Mitt Romney?
That would be as weird as supporting chronic betrayer of conservatives John McCain, or endlessly equivocating abortion advocate Fred Thompson, or drag queen abortion advocate Rudy Giuliani, the other three leading contenders for the GOP Presidential nomination in 2008.
By the way...
...what the hell happened to the Republican party?

...what the hell happened to the Republican party? As trisham will report, in Massachusetts it was executed by Romney
for not groveling before him. Sort of like what he did to the GOP in Election 2008.
“The Massachusetts Republican Party died last Tuesday.
The cause of death: failed leadership.
The party is survived by a few leftover legislators
and a handful of county officials and grassroots activists
who have been ignored for years.
Services will be public and a mass exodus of taxpayers will follow.
In lieu of flowers, send messages to New Hampshire Republican voters
warning them about a certain presidential candidate named Romney.”

"In 2006, while Romney was chairman of the National Republican
Governors Association - a group dedicated to electing more
Republican governors - his own hand-picked Republican successor
as governor lost badly to the Democrat, despite the fact that Republicans
have held the governorship in Massachusetts since 1990. Romney largely
ignored the Massachusetts elections and spent most of the time
during the campaign out of state building his presidential campaign.
He came back and publicly campaigned for the Republican candidate
the day before the general election!
“Locally, this is a rebuke to Mitt Romney and checking out within six months
after being elected and having accomplished almost nothing,”
[Jim] Rappaport [former chairman of the state Republican Party]."
