If she stays in I would check whether Romney is financing her campaign.

Absolutely, he is. When Newt starts his whipping of mitt, he's gonna need momma there to protect him. It's an embarrassment to watch it in action.

Exactly how would Romney be financing her campaign - I'd like you do document that here.

I'm very interested in the money trail on that.

I mean, if one candidate is diverting their own campaign cash to another campaign, that'd be a newsworthy item.

Perhaps the money is not going through Romney's campaign. How silly of me. Right, he's got his fundraisers raising money for Michele.

Let's have a look at opensecrets.org and see how that's working out.

Maybe the money isn't reported on opensecrets. Maybe her campaign has two sets of books.

I think Boss Hogg is backing Michele's campaign.

I don't accuse Romney or Newt of illegal campaign tactics. Or anyone in the Republican field.

Because I'm pretty sure they're a) simply trying to run legitimate campaigns and win and that takes up enough organizational effort and b) very much NOT wanting to have a scandal like that.

Beating the old dead horse of Bachmann for being "in cahoots" with Romney reveals a desperation to see Newt elected.

Which, is absurd for anyone who purports to be against big government. There's just far too much of Newt's and Michele's actual Congressional record, job history and public quotes to not see the stark difference in their respective beliefs in the role of government.

Granted, Newt is making a very wonderful effort at recasting himself to better fit the mold of what grassroots conservatives are looking for today. But, like Romney, what causes grassroots unease with that is not the current stance but the recasting.

Now don't you think that was mitt's plan all along. Conservatives would believe the character of MB before Newt?

What you are implying are conservatives - while believing in conservative values - are pure as the driven snow and leave their political ambition and ego at the door. That thought leaves a door open to being deceived. And when they come to that realization - it's already too late. The game was apparent when MB and mitt walked onto the stage of the first debate. I don't need to know who bought the knife that stabbed me in the back - I just that I was stabbed.

Do you actually think mitt has been knitting all these years instead of preparing for another run at 'what is his' in his own mind? His plan was being designed and put in place and sprang on the unsuspecting ones - many still don't see it because it was designed to do just that. Keep them hung up on rhetoric while the game is being played out.

You actually think mitt, with all his known flip flops and liberal big gov't ways and romneycare hanging around his neck would enter a race - especially at this time - without being buffered on all sides from being attacked on his record? Who are his greatest enemy? Conservatives? Wouldn't the OBVIOUS step be to get one or two to be his buffer on stage during the debates? Isn't that how evil comes in - by deception and surrounding itself by it's own mouthpieces while it stands smiling and poised? Not that they agree with him but stand in the way of being kicked to the curb by the other candidates? Mitt should have been diced up and served back to the liberal camp where he belongs on that first debate. He had NO right to that GOP stage with his romneycare big gov't homo necklace he wears. And when some took out their knives, MB either attacked them at the onset or interrupted them with her rheortic - to bring attention away from it. Her attorney skills in action.

From the GOP elite, the media and some 'conservative' voices? What's the common denominator - to deceive the voters. Which one of the 3 kicked mitt to the curb? Which one protected him from being kicked to the curb? How many endorsements did mitt seeking after and 'got' from who we consider conservative? Those are the ones who are seeking political gain - and compromised conservative values. Tell me that has not happened and MB is no different than them. The game is so old - but the players are new and what was needed is some of those players that conservatives believed in.

I believe in Truth - and Truth fights evil, it doesn't buffer it or come against those who are fighting it.

You believe what you want and need to soothe you - I have no problem recognizing that evil exists and it's greatest accomplishment is worming itself in the midst of what one would consider good. It needs that cover to survive.
