Romney saddled Massachusetts with budget busting RomneyCare, taxpayer funded "safe and legal" abortion, gay marriage, leftist judges and a completely destroyed Republican label. And RomneyCare did become the model and impetus for ObamaCare.
Hear, hear!It's sad that we are where we are, without Palin in the race and with our being reduced to rooting for someone who has no executive experience and who has married multiple times and will therefore not be the very best example in the WH in that nontrivial respect. But I have to say that compared to looking at the '08 train wreck of a Republican primary campaign with McCain winning it, seeing Newt pull away from Romney isn't the worst scenario I have ever seen.
We were overjoyed to see Palin as the VP nominee back then - but had we known how she would be abused, we should have wanted her to wait, finish her one term, and then burst onto the national scene the way she did in '08.Rush had a caller on yesterday who told him that she personally knew that the bigwigs in Fannie and Freddie knew beforehand that the malodorous stuff was going to hit the ventilator in 2008 - so that the Democrats were fully forewarned to be ready to exploit the fact that it happened on Bush's watch. Chuck Schumer, we recall, helped trigger that meltdown. Clearly with malice aforethought.Now, with some long years of experience of what it means to have a pal of Bill Ayers in the White House, we had better be able to make some anti-incumbent hay of our own in 2012. I have to say, with GHWB allowing himself to be succeeded by Bill Clinton and with GWB having allowed himself to be succeeded by Barak Hussein Obama - and with the international situation being what it is - the Bushes have not exactly made the most of the legacy of Ronald Wilson Reagan.
