Romney steps in it, says it’s time to move beyond Fox’s ‘true believers’

It is especially clueless, coming fresh on the heels of another Romney statement made at a fundraiser on Sunday:

“We are behind when it comes to commentators on TV. They tend to be liberal,” Romney said. “Where we are ahead or even is on twitter and on the Internet.”

Insulting people is not a way to stay ahead on Twitter, toots. Neither is diminishing Fox News when almost all of the mainstream media is carrying Obama’s water. Way to buy into the false Leftist narratives! Media Matters would be so proud.

It seems Mitt Romney has learned nothing from President Obama and his utter failures on Twitter. Tweeps have a few suggestions for Mitt Romney and hopefully he’ll heed them.

Fox News may deserve the nickname “Romney News Network” more than CNN ever deserved the moniker “Clinton News Network.”

We know he is an Albino Obama.

Hell! Obama is an albino Obama. Have you ever noticed how pale he is below the collar line. I think that they 'man tan' him up for his public appearances.

I won’t vote for a socialist. And Romney is a socialist.

Agreed. Romney's staff has been sending up trial balloons for some time about his likely "move to the center" and now he's doing it himself rather than using surrogates.

He's apparently decided that he needs to see how negatively conservatives respond, and is getting the message that we don't care or that there aren't enough conservatives to cause him problems.

I think conservative voters in the next few states need to send him a very strong message.

Good for you. It’s your right to vote. Just don’t force Romney to people like us, who can’t really vote for your guy.

Wish your candidate all the best!

You’ll prolly vote Romney too because Obama will do some appalling things that will force you to.

That's why they favor you w/softball questions from the media moderators because you are liberal. They take care of their own. They are against conservative Newt.

Save you whining - you will need it when obama is 'ready' for you.
