Romney says Brown can ‘make history’
The Boston Globe ^ | 01-01-10 | The Boston Globe Staff

Posted on 01/02/2010 9:25:42 AM PST by GOP_Lady

Mitt Romney - that rare political breed, a Republican elected statewide in Massachusetts - told supporters yesterday that if Scott Brown can pull off a similar feat next month in the US Senate special election, it “would shock the country and send a strong message that business as usual in Washington is coming to an end.’’

“He would bring badly-needed fiscal restraint to an out-of-control budget process that is adding trillions of dollars to our national debt,’’ said Romney, the former Bay State governor who gives every indication he’s preparing a second presidential bid in 2012.

I really think it's easy to underestimate Romney's potential to deeply damage the GOP and the USA. He's bad news ... I know, I've only said it about five thousand times ... and will probably say it about five thousand times more!

In the meantime, Mitt's money is paying for ringers to post love poems to him on many forums, including IMO, FR.

Okay. So, I'm not FREE to call someone out when they post not-so-good things. Oh, I get it now.

And I'm not FREE to ask someone to leave of my threads when they are purposely disrupting it and ruining it for others. Oh, I get it now.

Hopefully no one will shoot you with a bullet and stab you with a knife. How’s that for being “PC,” huh?

Well! I never! *huff*

Why, you had better not ever post to me again! I mean it! (Mommy ... that mean GOP Gal is scaring me!!! Wahhhhh!!!!)

Er ... scratch that. I'm glad you're here, GOP Gal, even if you usually come across as the bossy little girl on the playground that even makes the teacher roll her eyes.

As far as I'm concerned, you are FREE to do anything your little heart desires, regardless of the impression it gives of snippy 13-year-old girls.

You'll notice I didn't suggest you stop "asking" (although, I recall it being more of an order) someone to leave your threads when they are purposely disrupting it and ruining it for others (meaning other MittBots?). I consider the entertainment value priceless!

of the typical Daddy's Home Female Romney supporter.

More like sugar daddy - RomneyCare, and taking care of all those kiddies confused about their gender. Ole sugar 'marry them up' Daddy. I can see their MITT bumper stickers - "Daddy Take Care of Me"! Their favorite snack is RINO on toast.

He and his minions are doing their million-dollar best to spoil the next election also.

You are indeed perfectly FREE to call someone out when they post "not-so-good things," especially lies and half-truths designed to mislead and distort. I call such posters out on such things all the time, and so do most FReepers.

When you get your own forum, ONLY THEN can you ask anyone to leave "your thread" because only then can you rightly call it "your thread." Every thread on Free Republic belongs to Jim Robinson, a most generous host -- far more generous than YOU would be, dear. You would be smacking hands with rulers to make the children behave.

You are also FREE, as you've proven many times over the years on Free Republic, to become so offended by rough-and-tumble FReepers that you post silly, old ladyish prudish pursed-lip huffiness to show how deeply offended you are at such rudeness. Yes, happily, you are perfectly FREE to do so, as you well know, as long as Free Republic allows you to do it.

And likewise, as long as Free Republic allows, I am equally FREE to give you merciless verbal guff for it, as is greyfoxx and any other FReeper, as long as Jim allows us to be FReepers. You complain and whine when you should be giving much thanks.

OK, thank you. It is very easy to take a quick look at a candidate's website, read about him and imagine him to be "one of us"; to visualize an actual live Republican! trying to get elected in deep crimson Mass.

So IOW about all we would get is another RINO, however--he states that he would vote against the Healthcare Takeover. In a state like the P.R. of Mass, that could be a death wish!

Scott Brown has never served a day of active duty. (I haven’t either) He is a lawyer in the National Guard. (Not denigrating his service)

You are denigrating his almost 30 years of military service. His huge, lifelong, commitment to the military is another difference between him and Mitt Romney. You never responded to post 168, but here is another.

No Romney man has ever served the United States of America in their entire history, Romney has a lifelong commitment AGAINST conservatism, it isn't that he is not conservative, he is anticonservative, and has been at war with conservatism, until he started running for the 2008 election.

You are right Lady. This kind of stuff is what I expect to see on the DU or other nasty lib sites. I like to think we are more civilized in speech and behavior and so on.

Thank you, Paved Paradise.

I think it sums up things quite nicely.

Obama Mitt is the poster boy for empty suit.

I know who the enemy of this nation is and it's not Mitt Romney.

Are you’re reading skills lacking?

I said I’m NOT denigrating his service

Again, NOT

This thread is a disaster

“...Conservatives should vote for the Dem candidate to make Romney look bad...”

- Did you forgot your sarcasm tag? (or what?)

No, because he/she is one of many leftist trolls who post vs. Republicans non-stop on this site.

No my reading skills are fine, I was pointing out that you are denigrating his almost 30 years of military service, we went through this with the left and George W. Bush and his National Guard service.

Also, why do you ignore both of my posts to you where I tell you two significant differences between Brown and Romney?

Seems that many feel that their candidate can’t win unless Romney is destroyed... doesn’t say much about their candidate.

Sadly, sure does.

Mr. Romney "Disses" Amateur Radio In Televised Town Meeting

Gov. Sarah Palin, Governor of the state of Alaska, proclaimed the week of July 28 through August 3, 2008 as: Amateur Radio Week
