Mitt Romney has one chance to become president of the United States.
Because of his wealth and his political machine on the ground in early primary states, he has a chance to win the Iowa caucuses and the New Hampshire primary, picking up momentum that could ultimately deliver him the Republican nomination.
Therefore, consider this an open letter to the good folks of Iowa and New Hampshire: Don’t be fooled by this political chameleon, this charlatan, this pretender to the throne.
He’s as phony as a three-dollar campaign promise.
Romney has tried to “re-invent” himself as a presidential candidate following his years as governor of Massachusetts. But when a politician has a record of governance by which to judge him, as Romney does, that should serve as the real test of values, beliefs and abilities – not empty words that actually contradict his actions.
For instance, Romney today claims to be pro-life. Yet he ran for governor as a staunch supporter of abortion on demand.
He claims today to be a supporter of traditional marriage and an opponent of same-sex marriage. Yet, as governor of Massachusetts, he did more than any other person alive in the United States to ensure same-sex marriage would be the law of the land in his state.

I think its safe to say that Joe Farah isn’t on the Romney payroll.
Come election day, I will vote against Obama.
Bartender goes "So what are you having today Mitt?"
Most people aren`t fooled by Romney... problem is, the one who will benefit from that skepticism is Obama in November.. and it`s not going to be close.
Romney had two chances to be president. One, when he was the final alternative left standing to John McCain. He made a cost-benefit analysis and decided to drop out, leaving us McCain. That taught me he is not a fighter when it counts.
His second chance was early in O’s administration, when he was steam-rolling congress, and the Repubs were so demoralized they were looking for ways to help him do it. I said then that this is the moment, anyone who wants to be president can stand up now and his baggage will be forgiven. Whatever his failings in the past, stand up now and you get another chance. I had specifically Romney and Gingrich in mind.
Who did stand up was Palin. Gingrich also started making the rounds speaking where ever he could find an audience. Romney? Sat quiet. Said nothing. During the fight of the century he could not be roused to get involved. He prepared his position papers and focus-grouped his future positions.
That told me that he does not care about principle. He does not care about America, even. He cares about Romney. It also told me that he is not worthy to be president. Leaders lead, they don’t wait for a coronation. Romney is no leader.
