Folks, in case you haven’t paid attention this is supposed to be a Romney thread and not a bash Palin thread.

Seriously, if you are a Mittbot, please try to convince me why Romney’s decision to endorse McCain was a brilliant strategy and why Rush Limbaugh and Mark Levin don’t know what they are talking about when consigning Romney’s presidential aspirations in 2012 to the scrap heap of history.

Imho, Romney has severely damaged himself with the TP movement and conservatives in general. Sure he might have gained brownie points with moderates but in case you haven’t heard only at most 1/3 of the Republican party is made up of moderates and about 2/3 is comprised of conservatives. From a strictly mathematical point of view it doesn’t make much sense to alienate the majority of potential voters. Does Romney really believe that the TP movement which comprises 50% of the GOP in a recent Economist/youguv poll, is going to eventually give him a pass for endorsing their #1 political enemy, RINO McCain? if Mitt does, I think he is delusional.

No, he is not delusional, but with his liberal MI and MA background, he thinks most Republican primary voters are “moderates” and easily his kind of voters.
