Republicans are kidding themselves if they believe Mitt Romney, at least his current iteration, can win the election merely by attacking Barack Obama. Given Romneys lack of conservative principles, perhaps that is for the best.
Who is Mitt Romney? What does he believe? Where are his core principles?
There is no need to seek penitence if you dont know the answer to the preceding questions. After all, no one could provide a consistent answer. Romney was for gun control before he was the NRAs proudest supporter, for health care reform before he championed the repeal of Romneycare (excuse me, Obamacare), for gay rights before he decided marriage was between a man and a woman, a fierce defender of abortion rights before he became the chief opponent of Roe v. Wade, and, well, you get the picture. (It seems Romney learned a lot from his fellow Massachusetts resident, John Kerry.)
Romney is a principled defender of things he finds incredibly important, until he discards those principles the moment the weather vane changes direction.
Eric Fehrnstrom (Romneys chief campaign adviser) was speaking the truth this spring when he declared the Romney campaign would shake itself up like an Etch-A-Sketch after the Republican primary ended. But Fehrnstrom wasnt telling the entire truth.

The left is doing everything in their power to discourage and suppress the vote. It’s high time that this kind of hit piece be exposed for what it is.
Is it a hit piece if it tells the truth? The only stretching of the truth I find in the article is in Romney’s favor, not against him.
Sure it’s a hit piece and a lie as well. I have seen Romney s ads and in them he speaks of jobs creation, education, thee spirit of America (a tribute to Reagan), etc. All positve things.
The article implies all Romney is doing is attacking Obama and while he is doing some of that as he MUST it is not by far all he is doing.
Attack ads are all Obama is doing oth.
Even if all other things are equal Romney will be business friendly. And thats reason enough to vote for him.
I am pretty sure Romney is not a Communist. If you want a Communist for president, again, don’t vote for Romney. If you don’t want a communist s the last elected President, then cut the petty whining and vote for Romney, warts and all. Otherwise, welcome to The Soviet Colony of America.
I watched Romney being interviewed on NBC last night. He was asked about releasing more tax records. When he declined, NBC asked if his denial raised the appearance of improper activity. Romney dropped the ball by not asking in response if that applied to Obama’s college records.
Yada....yada....yada.....blah....blah...blah.... All of these Romney hate pieces begin to sound the same after a while. We get it, you want him to lose.
Okay, you will be voting for Romney because you're "pretty sure Romney is not a Communist."
I agree with you. The title of this article might as well be "Don't Vote For Romney. Vote For Obama."
No I will not vote for an abortionist for president. Period. Its no secret. Ive been posting that I will not vote for Rudy/Romney abortionist for many years.

Romney does not qualify on any count!
The truth?
What's wrong with the truth?
Bingo! That would have been a powerful counter-move. Why won't Romney bring up Obama's college records? Why didn't McCain mention them?
No I will not vote for an abortionist for president. Period. Its no secret. Ive been posting that I will not vote for Rudy/Romney abortionist for many years.

WTF are you talking about. And WTF is this article talking about?
Anyone of you idiots listen to his VFW speech the other day?
He can scream and yell all he wants, yet, when the MSNM will not ever cover him.
Romney gains simply by being the unObama. That is how lousy Barack is.
