“He tried to out-liberal Ted, and with predictable results. He was an unprecedented disaster as Governor and buried the state GOP. Slick Willard can disappear, that’s the best thing he can do for us.”

Have you ever noticed that when liberals run in conservative areas (which is most of the country) that they try to sound conservative? Candidates tend to play to what they perceive their audience wishes to hear. Do you hear liberals slashing and burning their candidates who go out and try to sound conservative, and they when they are elected show themselves to be socialists? Of course not. If a conservative in an ultra liberal state plays to the middle in order to get elected but is still basically conservative when the rubber hits the road in office, it will serve the country better than going down in flames at the ballot box and then watch the ultra leftist democrats run and ruin everything.
Romney is not a rino. He actually vetoed the health bill he is being attacked about. But think for a moment. Even if he were a rino and ten more like him replaced democrats, republicans would control the chairmanships of all the committees, and then only conservative legislation would ever even reach the floor for a vote. That would surely be an improvement over the situation now where we are dangerously close to a filibuster proof rubber stamp for der fuhrer’s Fourth Reich.
To govern, you first have to be ELECTED.

"Romney is not a rino."

Quite so. He's a Democrat. You're a troll. Have a nice day.

“He actually vetoed the health bill he is being attacked about. “
