"with pics of him laughing with Kennedy"

I don't think that's necessarily something to get too worked up about.

>>>>>>“People are going to start to realize that either Mitt Romney or Barack Obama is going to be the next president of the United States,” said chief Romney strategist Stuart Stevens.

My money would be on Obama.

FUMR!

Well, he supposedly did a good job with the Olympics.

And he's got good hair.

Maybe Mark Sanford will get in, now that his affair is "old news."

Other than being a gun-grabber, pro-mosque, statist that weighs 400lbs? BTW, I weigh 345lbs, but I’m not running for president.

There are lots of photos of President Reagan with communists. Not the same thing.

Who are these “establishment Republicans” that we keep hearing about? Last I heard, the GOP was established as a conservative party, with conservative values and a conservative voting base. Sure, some liberals have infiltrated (Romney and McCain come to mind), but they are very much outliers.

I noticed that within all of their blather they could not get around to mentioning the name of Ron Paul. Paul is like kryptonite to the establishment. But they can not ignore him forever otherwise it will be the first time in history that the media does not report on who won the presidency should Paul win or be elected president.

The establishment Republicans are essentially the folks who are closet socialists who like to pretend to be conservative in order to gather votes from the political right.

The media faces the same quandry if H.R. Pufnstuf wins the presidency.

I was willing to give Mitt the benefit of the doubt when his name first came up, especially when people were getting down on him because of his Mormon faith, but these days, I am convinced he would be the dumbest choice the Republicans could make since Dole.

He’s a weathervane. Romneycare is/was a disaster. His policies on immigration are incompatible with the Republican base. He epitomizes the type of RINO that caused the tea party to start from the beginning.

I am totally convinced that the media is pushing as hard as they can to endue a sense of “inevitability” in his candidacy because they already know how they are going to take him out if he gets the nomination.

Are you seriously saying Romney is a communist?

Christie could’ve pulled it off. He doesn’t have anything as big as romneycare (with pics of him laughing with Kennedy) to deal with.

No, he couldn't have: you're forgetting that Christie has major Second Amendment problems. He supported semi-auto bans (one of his campaign ads ridiculed an opponent for opposing them) and would not be acceptable to the TEA party rank and file (due to their silly, misguided reverence for the Constitution.)

Reading is FUNDAMENTAL. Where did I mention Milt Romney?

Lets see if I get this.

The marxists are intent on seeing the degenerate coward con man SLICK WILLARD RINO ROMNEY ending up the nominee, and are pulling out all of the stops.

Problem is that if he's the nominee, the GOP is over as a viable political apparatus.

While the RNC are comprised of incompetent morons, they are not suicidal.

"Mitt" needs to take a long walk off a short pier.

It’s implied in your comparison of the photos.

If that’s not what you meant, I have hope that real issues can be discussed.

That is President Reagan and then Vice President Bush with Communist Party Secretary Gorbachev. Milt isn’t in the photo. I was calling Edward Kennedy a communist, which he was. When the Soviet Union fell, we got to see KGB, NKVD and GRU records. Kennedy, along with many others, was being influenced by enemy agents. Google it.

He's a coward degenerate douchebag from a family of military service avoiding douchebags, supports gay marriage, and was a baby killer supporter into his 40's.

That's just the tip of the iceberg, maybe you should go on a mission somewhere else, like Afghanistan.

All Mitt has to do is be the last one standing. With all the fire directed at the not-Romneys, it’s been easy for him so far.
