Mitt Romney, the Tea Party, Hillary Clinton, GOP Dissension, and the ZOT Label
Mitt Romney Central ^ | 9-21-2010 | iwaswrong

Posted on 09/21/2010 11:04:47 AM PDT by iwaswrong

Somewhere along the line, the notion was adopted, mostly among liberal media but more recently among fellow conservatives, that Mitt Romney represents solely the moderate, ‘establishment’ core of the Republican party: the Bush loyalists; the staunch GOPers. I won’t deny that Gov. Romney’s appeal is wide, and it certainly may spread to the more moderate branch of our party, but I refudiate the absurd conception that his base of support exists only in that branch. I see obnoxious headlines all the time now that predict Romney’s demise, tracing it all back to how he’s the GOP’s supposed ‘next in line’, but the Tea Party backlash will impede him from gaining wide Republican support. Just today, an article from NPR calls Mitt Romney ‘the Hillary Clinton of 2012‘ – destined to fail due an uprising in the party’s fringe…

Baloney. Mitt will never be the ‘man’ that Hillary Clinton is.

As conservatives, we’ve gotten so caught up in the day-to-day mud slinging that we’ve lost sight of our principal goal: to take our country back! My concern is that the primary benefactor of all this may be the very thing we all wish to deter: the advancement of Obama’s liberal agenda.

Somewhere amidst the dust up of GOP in-fighting, the Democrats are grinning. They watch- entertained - as we are preoccupied with assigning destructive labels to our own party leaders, and dividing ourselves into far too many factions of Republicanism. “My candidate endorsed the eventual primary winner WAY before yours did!” — “Why is your guy/gal silent on this hot-button issue?” — “Why wasn’t your candidate a speaker at THIS convention?!” — “RINO this, RINO, that!”

We appreciate your offer, but no thanks.

The irony of your screen name doesn't go unnoticed either.

iwaswrong -- You still are.

If the justification for electing Romney is his business savvy (questionable at best), then he is definitely a "No Sale".

We can teach a conservative janitor or waitress to use Excel spreadsheets much, much more quickly than we can teach Mitt Romney to grow some conservative principles and some honesty.

Unlike GWB or Cheney, Romney has had his finger in the air his entire career. I wouldn’t trust him any farther than I could drop kick him.

Is he still defending RomneyCare, by chance?

Is he still peddling his bogus “assualt weapons ban”? You know, those scary looking rifles that Mitt’s dishpan hands have never touched?

He loves his country. Great. He also believes in big government solutions to problems - absolute proof - Romney Care.

He may have been a good president 20 years ago. Exactly not what we need right now.

“These Romney threads are about as predictable as the drug war threads. Places everybody...”

Indeed. Unlike Romney, the positions -never- change!
