I am not surprised.

But Willard just looks SOOOOO Presidential that he couldn’t POSSIBLY stoop to getting his wrists dirty.

Mittens is despicable on his best day.

RE: “One of the things fellow Republicans and political observers have never liked about Mitt Romney is the wholesome piety he exhibits on the stump, while his hacks and PACs engage in some of the ugliest politics around.”

Exactly. Bingo. And raise your hand FReepers if you’ve been personally subjected to it from the 2008 primaries on.

Big’ol_freeper: Hand raised. Accused of being a “son of perdition” as one example.

By all accounts, it was Romney's former staffers who went after Sarah Palin in 2008. After McCain had the nomination, many Romney folks joined his campaign, perhaps thinking that Mitt would get the VP nod. When it went to Sarah Palin instead, and McCain's numbers started climbing, there was an all out effort to sabotage her....rumors and innuendos from “unnamed” sources within the campaign. I don't think Sarah has forgotten and I think her remarks the other day about Newt were fully intended to convey her belief that Romney should NOT be the nominee this time!

Things seem to happen all the time around Willard. The Boy Scouts can’t show up at the Olympics in uniform, gay marriage becomes the law of the land, Catholic adoption agencies must do homosexual placements, Catholic hospitals must pass out The Morning After Pill to rape victims, assault weapons bills get signed, pink handbills get passed out at Pride parades, Planned Parenthood gets checks...none of it his fault or his doing.

Romney has bought 2.5 million dollars’ worth of ad in Florida, already playing; Newt, so far, none. Newt needs a serious ground effort, and Santorum is going to double team Newt with Romney, that’s what I have read...

I posted this before in this forum, but the mods took it away to bloggers’ forum. I hope it is okay to post it here:

As part of my neighborhood grassroots activity for Newt, we are planning to do a sticky-note tsunami in Florida with individual sticky-notes for different grocery items, and at the gas pumps.

For example, we would like to do stickies for specific items, like a loaf of bread, a dozen eggs, pasta, etc. and post them on the shelves where the products are located, with a very simple text, something along the lines: A Loaf of Bread, Obama Inauguration Day $___ ; Loaf of Bread today $___ . Newt Gingrich balanced the budget 4 times, passed welfare reform, helped Pres. Reagan create 11 million jobs. Vote for Newt. He knows how to fix things. www.newt.org

My problem is, I can’t find a listing of specific grocery retail prices ranging those years, just some general stuff on prices of corn, soybeans and stuff. I have looked and looked and looked, and I’ve have been unable to find a range for gas prices through those years, also. I was wondering if someone might have a link for these price fluctuations, for very specific, and very many grocery items.

Florida, you know, has many seniors, on very fixed incomes. Till now, we’ve had all of our attention focused on SC, but it is Sunday night already, and we can’t find this price information anywhere.

I know this probably doesn’t sound like a very sophisticated effort, but we like it, and it is something we do well – swarming. If anyone here could help us out, I would greatly appreciate it. We have all our sticky-notes bought, and people lined up, ready to write them out for us, we just need some good texts, and these prices. I would so appreciate any help the seasoned, wise, and prolific members of Free Republic could give us.

Thank you very much.

Romney’s dirtytricks are going to backfire big time. Silent Tea Party anger building up like a Tsunami ready to crush the Rhinos and Obama.

What Washington needs is adult supervision.

It's really quiet in here now. Since most of the Romney-bots have been Zotted, we can now, with impunity, make all the cult-religion innuendos we want about a particular candidate. In fact, we can do it until all the cult-chickens go home to roost. You know, like.......

Ahh-cult! Ahh-cult!

(oh...sorry there...I got the sneezies, must be getting a cold)

[SENTINEL]

That filthy lying commie cult member and his GOP "elite" handlers are about to feel the real power of Freerepublic and the Tea Party in Florida !

Hopefully then he will climb back under his the seer stone he came from under like the the slimy white salamander that he is.

[svcw]

I know little about the the Olympics/Romney, except what lds tell you, he was almost divine in fixing the problems and other people saying, not so fast he didn’t do anything.
So when you say Romney prevented Boy Scouts from attending in uniform - WTH?

[hinckley buzzard]

Oh yeah. Romney has his covert surrogate scumbags right here on FR. You can tell them by their comments against Newt. Pretty transparent, really.

[hinckley buzzard]

Sent in my donation. C'mon freepers, they'll take as little as five bucks. First money I've spent on a candidate since Cain, but it won't be the last. Donate --it'll make you feel good inside.

[big'ol_freeper]

One example from 2008. A FReeper named reaganesque was outed as a paid Romney operative.
