"The Mitt-bots STILL don’t get it.....we need a CONSERVATIVE"

Absolutely right....going with a RINO will waste the momentum that will be there for getting this dufus we are stuck with now in the W.H. back to his "roots".

My God! The man gives a speech where he sounds like a Conservative and all these people desperate for a candidate are ready to sign up to sail on The USS RINO.
Well if Romney was so great why did McCain get the nomination and not Mitt????????????

Romney said the dog liked being abused.

ROmney said the citizens of Massachusetts like the BIGdig's financial impact.

Romney said the Mauck's liked being murdered.

Romney said the NRA backed him for Governorship.

Romney said he marched with MLK.

.....

Adulterers claims that they "fell" on each other
and their genitalia just happened to accidently couple.
Romney should know better.

It is still dog abuse, Bucko.

Right. Both sides of the abortion issue aggressively promoted their positions. Reagan didn't lobby for it, but you're right, he did regret signing it for the exact reason I posted. As the story goes, almost immediately Reagan was haunted by his decision. Although it pertained to only 2% of all abortions performed, it turned into a nightmare resulting in spikes in overall abortion numbers.

FACTOID OF THE DAY:

As Gov of Massachusetts, Romney managed to raise taxes on New Hampshire residents.

How Romney is that?

This victory is as meaningful as his first caucus win.
Again, Mitt peaks too soon, using lots of cash...

Wouldn’t it be great if Mitt went out there and did something conservative, instead of governing like a moderate/liberal and just spreading cash everywhere?

I understand he rejoined the Marriott Board. Anyone else verify that?

Nice try, the won't listen to fact. Tearing down Reagan is a major element in the “Make Mitt a “Conservative”” effort...

Oh please. Make stuff up? You need to get real and recognize the shortcomings in your own Romney group.

I don’t know about Jindal but IMHO the three frontrunners will be Romney, Palin and Huckabee. There’s usually a dark horse candidate in the mix as well.

Yet another fridiot who doesn’t recall Romney running to the left of Ted Kennedy when he tried to unseat TK for his senate seat.

Exactly. Such efforts are both sad and pathetic. As with Obama, their adulation for Romney is off the charts and downright scary. A dangerous obsession that will end in failure.

Romney didn’;t turn Mass. East into Mass. East. It was that way before Romney came along. He tried to make it better, but failed. It is not a surprise that he has put his home in Mass. up for sale and is leaving. I would leave too. The state is a completly failed sucialistic state.

My Boston Republican friends would not agree with you.
They were not happy with him as Gov.

Elsie, you are so bitter for being kicked out of the Church that you can’t even participate civily in a political form without your betterness coming out.
If Sarah wants to win, she will have to make her distance from people like you.

Show me one post on this thread of a Romney supporter attacking Palin.

Romney supporters don't despise and attack Sarah Palin. They admire her. It is the Palin people who make that up to cover their attacks on ?Romney.

RomneyBOT broncobilly (deluded as ever): "Romney didn’t turn Mass. East into Mass. East.
It was that way before Romney came along.
He tried to make it better, but failed.
"

WRONG. Was socialized medicine there before Romney. No.
In addition, Romney wrecked the economy showing he was CLUELESS.

Myth Romney also got a "C" rating from CATO.
Liberal RINO Romney betrayed President Bush (as TeamROMNEY would do in Election2008)
because Romney was against the conservative tax cuts proving the RomneyBOT wrong.
Here are the facts from CATO.

"As U.S. real output grew 13 percent between 2002 and 2006, Massachusetts trailed at 9 percent.
* Manufacturing employment fell 7 percent nationwide those years, but sank 14 percent under Romney, placing Massachusetts 48th among the states.
* Between fall 2003 and autumn 2006, U.S. job growth averaged 5.4 percent, nearly three times Massachusetts' anemic 1.9 percent pace.
* While 8 million Americans over age 16 found work between 2002 and 2006, the number of employed Massachusetts residents actually declined by 8,500 during those years.
"Massachusetts (under Romney) was the only state to have failed to post any gain in its pool of employed residents," professors Sum and McLaughlin concluded.
In an April 2003 meeting with the Massachusetts congressional delegation in Washington, Romney failed to endorse President Bush's $726 billion tax-cut proposal.
