Romney's advisers said it's better to be criticized by Murdoch than praised, because of his lack of credibility due to the phone hacking scandal. I agree.

Empty, mind-numbingly stupid rhetoric masquerading as a valid reason for excusing what Murdoch is saying. Exactly what I expect from Romney and his supporters.

Murdoch’s Fox channel was shamelessly pushing this candidate during the primaries, in my opinion campaigning for him whil denigrating his opponents. I have no respect for Fox, and I don’t care what Murdoch has to say now. They both deserve each other.

Murdoch is right - Romney is far to meek and timid - hence, he has only a slim chance at winning.

My bet - he excites very few hard-core conservatives - and is likely to lose to the worst president ever.

We don't need another dingbat for president - we need a hard-core conservative fighter - and Mitt just ain't it.

Every single show on Fox was pushing for Romney in the primaries. This story either has no legs, or Murdoch has zero impact on the content of his network.

Murdoch is an open borders type. He was upset with Romney who said he would not flip-flop on his immigration stance during the primaries. Murdoch considers immigration as one of his signature issues, which explains why Fox has failed to cover the subject objectively.

Richard Nixon wrote a book-length essay, “The Real War,” in 1979 describing—among other things—how to confront communism in the Third World. He said it was time for the U.S. to “match brutality with brutality” when dealing with brush-fire insurgents. Ronald Reagan used the formula to hold on to Central America.

The threat Romney confronts is no less dangerous. It is an enemy that is destroying America from within, using the entire executive branch and a corrupt news media to install a 21st century version of Marxism. Obama also represents a Chicago-based cabal of criminals intent on stealing billions through skimming, kickbacks, bogus contracts and selling U.S. secrets and diplomatic concessions to our enemies. Romney needs to call a spade a spade.

Rupert Murdoch rose in the media industry by supporting the Labour Party in Australia in the early 1970s....Labour at the time was led by Gough Whitlam, who was the “Father of Australian Socilized Medicine”

Murdoch also hired a sniveling liberal mangina called Piers Morgan to run one if his British newspapers

Folks, Murdoch is a Liberal. His money is on Obama. Why do you think Fox News has been so weak on Obama?

Romney is better to keep his own people. There is not a GOP presidential candidate that has won the popular vote in 2 successive elections since Reagan...so there is not anyone really that much “better”...and I would not call the liberal Karl Rove “better”

And, Murdoch’s criticism is because Romney will not out-and-out support Illegal Alien Amnesty. Murdoch is a big supporter of Amnesty...and note how FNC leans heavily towards Illegal Alien Amnesty

Romney needs to go more aggresive on Obama....but he needs to stay away from the autobot GOP “insiders”.
