This is Jennifer Rubin's first column for WaPo. She used to be at Commentary until yesterday. I don't think MA's version of Obamacare is Romney's main problem. Didn't MA have a veto proof majority in each house?

[pissant]

Pence, DeMint, Bolton, Bachmann, Hunter. Let’s get some conservative blood into this race.

[MrEdd]

Yes, it is Mitt Romneycares main problem.

Second was his expressed willingness to give Massachusetts's gays the right to force the boy scouts to accept gay men.

All his other deal killing actions as Governor pale next to those two.

[Cicero]

Much of the punditocracy is obsessed with Sarah Palin.

So, Jennifer, why are you writing about Sarah Palin in your very first article for the Washington ComPost?

[FTJM]

Good article. Thanks for posting.

[Diogenesis]

So you are a RomneyBOT, now?

Romney's problems INCLUDE RomneyCARE, RomneyDEATHpanels,
RomneyMarriage, Romney's destruction of the Mass. Constitution,
and on, and on, and on.

Backstabber and spoiler Mitt Romney is unelectable.
Gov. Palin is ineluctable.

[curiosity]

Indeed, more Republicans -- on the Hill and around the country -- are beginning to suspect that she might not run

I really hope they're right. If she runs, she'll be a disaster for the party, even if she doesn't win the nomination.

[Ghost of Philip Marlowe]

I’m sure “Jennifer Rubin” is another high-quality, objective “journalist” trained at the finest school of journalism and that her opinion and desires never find their way into her articles.

Snort.

[Diogenesis]

[Radix]

Palin’s status as frontrunner in the 2012 Republican nomination process is certainly not jeopardized by anything posted in the Washington Post.

They wish.

I actually liked Romney a lot for some time, but as events unfold, it is evident that he is a dud.

Would he make a better Administrator than Palin?

No doubt.

Is he one of us?

No chance.

[Bernard Marx]

Shrewd analysis. Thanks.

[YHAOS]

Why Jennifer . . . I find your remarks controversial and opinionated (confrontational too).

[OldDeckHand]

Whatever you do, don’t google-image Jennifer Rubin with safesearch off. Some disturbing images return.

[Just mythoughts]

This is not written filled with confidence that BamBamKennedy is a sure thing... so the left is left to influence peddle which potential GOP candidate they can ‘McCain’ as their candidate of choice.

[Optimist]

Palin’s (potential) success is likely to rise as she is continually pilloried by the press and other liberals. Republicans will circle around “our girl” and she will continue to thereby be vaulted by us to super candidate status -— which is either EXACTLY what they want ... or the OPPOSITE of what they want (cant really read them on this yet)

[neverdem]

Didn’t MA have a veto proof majority in each house forcing their version of Obamacare on Romney? Didn’t he veto a number of its provisions initially?

[mrsmith]

"Alright you hired. Give your Sarah Palin article to write-up, and send in the next Sarah Palin writer applicant on your way out! I need more, more!"

[CharlesWayneCT]

So, which is it? Are they scared to death of her and trying to destroy her, or are they pushing her on us because they think she’ll lead to a “shelacking”? It can’t really be both, can it?

[nickcarraway]

His main problem is he’s from Massachusetts, which is a death knell to any candidate.

[FrankR]

[rlmorel]

"...But conservatives suspect there's also some mischief-making afoot -- the desire by liberal-leaning members of the media and the White House to make Palin the symbol of the Republican Party, which they are convinced will translate into her presidential run, her nomination and a shellacking for the GOP at the polls in 2012..."

AHHHH HAAAAA
HAAAAHAAAA
HAAAAHAAA!!!!!!!!!!!

(too funny!)
