Romney cannot be trusted. He’s a two face.

Mitt Willard Romney-care deserves exactly
the loyalty he gave Gov. Palin -- NONE

You’re not allowed to say that!

The Fiscal Libertarians at the Chamber (and via the GOP press) will call you anti-business!

Damn, you, populist!

Here is what amazon said about willard’s book sales

Mitt Romney’s book sales are any indication of how he will do against Sarah Plain in the GOP primaries, things are not looking too good for our former governor from Massachusetts, at the moment.
While Sarah Palin’s book shot to # 1 at Amazon on pre-orders alone, on the same day that it was available for pre-orders (a good 2 months before it was released), Mitt Romney’s book, “No Apology: The Case for American Greatness”, is still stuck at # 245 in the Amazon sales rankings, with only one day to go before release tomorrow.

#245 in presales on the day it actually becomes available.
Pretty bad, Palin was #1 2 months before it was available and the 1st day of presales...

Did Mitt RomneyCARE take a break from helping AIG
to become a "populist"?

Maybe Willard can team up with Cindy Sheehan on the book tour to make it appear anyone gives a hoot.

The SRM is going to be pushing Willard to be our man in 2012, and we need to say no Fn way.

“They also know they can succeed through the usual formula of ... and by promoting 1%-ers to bleed votes from a Palin-type candidate.”

And who are “they”? You sound like a populist.

People can vote any way they want in the primaries. If they make bad choices it’s weak to blame wall street and the “establishment” when things go wrong. I agree with you though that the next primary is starting to look a lot like the last one.

Mitt's book is currently #22 in Books and today is the official release date.

“Going Rogue” moved into #1 at amazon.com and maintained that position for three months. She sold nearly one million copies in pre-release.

These Romney threads aren’t much fun any more, with the Romneybots hiding in the wood work.

More crony capitalism if Romney gets elected.

Every time one of these RINO twinkie globalist commies mentions "populists" in a condescending tone, another hundred thousand Tea Party Patriots join the ranks.

These RINO twirps are not a majority, and they cannot win if the voters ignore their lies, and vote for the conservatives in the primaries.

Yes, there are still some here but most of them are in hiding. Tired of getting blasted, I suppose.

The Mittens left FR to go to Hot Air with the number Romneybot, Allah Pundit.

Tonight, Rick Perry won the TX Governor primary with no need for a run off. What’s interesting about the TX Governor primary race were the number of political celebrities getting involved. Debra Medina had Ron Paul’s endorsement. Kay Bailey Hutchinson had George HW Bush, Dick Cheney, and Dick Armey. Rick Perry had Sarah Palin in his corner. Power of a Palin endorsement in a GOP primary.

The 2008 retreads are 2nd tier candidates. I think it would best if Palin just skipped running in 2012 and endorse a dark horse candidate like My Man Mitch, Hale Barbour, or T-Paw. A Palin endorsement would give these guys the media buzz and momentum needed to fight the Inside the Beltway favored Romney.
