All goes wrong for Dudley Do-Right

That’s one deadly Dudley allusion.

I wouldn’t count anyone but Ron Paul out at this point. After all the delegate count spread among Romney, Gingrich, and Santorum is only about 7.

Hey SmithL, get over your binge and read the news, Kensian Jr lost Iowa.

[SmithL]

I guess I wouldn’t have known that, except I took the time to read the 4th line of the article. But thanks for sharing that.

Twelve days ago, Mitt was the toast of the GOP. This morning he’s just toast.

Burnt Toast...

[SmithL]

Mitt is still the toast of the GOP establishment. This is going to be a very long primary season.

Gah, I did it again sorry about that. The author is Howie Carr not you.
I went knee jerk on the 3rd line.

I'll go soak my head in a cup of coffee now.

[Vendome]

Genuine Naugahyde....

If Willard hadn’t just started sprouting Conservative memes to try to outdo Newtie’s quick shift to pandering to the right, He’d be a lot more believable.

Romney never wore a uniform. Just sayin’.

“Mitt is still the toast of the GOP establishment. This is going to be a very long primary season.”

True, but ultimately the GOP establishment is going the way of the Politburo - a similar organization.

[SusaninOhio]

I think Mitt is too honest, too morale, to stand up to either the media or Obama.

He is also too unprepared for a man who has had 6 years to prepare for simple, expected qustions.

Obama is going to run and debate using lies, lies, and more lies. Mitt will not know how to handle this, and will probably take the high road and ignore the lies, which will make him look out of touch (which he is) and will lose the election.

Santorum would make a better Dudley DoRight. Dudley was a good guy.

[Oldpuppymax]

Now we need Santorum to drop out and endorse Gingrich and the deal will be closed. Naturally the legacy media will be storing October surprises for Gingrich and presenting them right up through election day. But they would have done the same for Romney, after all. Must protect their boy in the White House, musn’t they!

Mitt was the toast of the GOP. This morning he’s just toast.

He's always just been milquetoast.

I'm not so sure. Simply because I have to imagine that Ron Paul's supporters, like a great glob of greasy gristle would clot around their next favorite clown, romney.

It might be to our benefit to keep him in. For example, we all saw how they tried to dismiss him entirely during the debates. He was even denied closing remarks on the last one as I recall. Not short of a GTFO from the media...

A lot of it comes down to money now. Mitt has a lot. Rick and Newt not so much although Newt has the momentum that will bring in some money. If Newt can pull out FL, Mitt is finished. I can't see Rick being a big factor from here forward.

The headline is hysterically funny.
