How DARE you even infer that Mitt is less than perfect!

At first glance, it might seem as if Mitt Romney’s path — from voting in the 1992 Democratic presidential primary to being the 2012 Republican presidential nominee — was linear. But over the past, winding, 20 years, Romney has held every possible view on every possible issue — often at the same time. When it comes to policy, he’s been downright promiscuous.
Jolted with a fresh shot of post-debate energy, Romney is just doing more of what he’s always done — whatever it takes to get elected. This comes naturally because he is, fundamentally, a cipher. The only thing he believes is whatever is politically expedient in that given moment. And right now, he needs to be a hard-liner to get the GOP base to the polls — and a moderate to appeal to those last few independent voters.
His solution is to sign on to the fanatical policies of the extreme right, and then duck and cover to confuse independents about where he really stands.
Enough is enough. Romney’s campaign has made for great “Daily Show” segments. But we’re three weeks away from determining the next leader of the United States. And at this point, Romney is just insulting Americans — our intelligence, our values, our democracy — with the campaign he is running. Tuesday’s town hall debate is an opportunity for voters — and President Obama — to articulate the real consequences that Romney’s real policies will have on real people’s lives. So let’s hope that, at the debate, voters will finally demand that Romney get real.

Hurricane Katrina was more rational than this Katrina.
“If Romeny is elected you may not be able to get an abortion!! Nothing else should be more important to you than aborting your baby. Socialism is just FINE! They LOVE aborting babies under socialism. In fact in China they INSIST ON IT!! What’s WRONG WITH YOU PEOPLE???? DON’T YOU ALL WANT ABORTIONS????”
OK, why is the Washington Post running the drivel of the limo commie who runs the Nation?
Oh, STOP! You're just being a picky-picky! You conservatives and your logic and reason, your extolling the precisian layout of every argument -- can't you just let your hair (and trousers) down once in a while and just FEEEEEEEELLLLLLLLL?!
Be human! Lose your mind, go blind and aphasic!
The Obamabots are out in force on this thread, campaigning for Obama at the height of the election.
I guess they don’t understand socialism doesn’t work and want to be slaves of the government.
Oh, but surely you've heard of the Hive Mind, the condobuzzium of the bien pensants?
One good buzz deserves a buzz-back!
Show me video of Romney eating live puppies and I will still vote for him over Obama, a white hating - country wrecking - constitution destroying - USA Military hating - lying socialist - homosexual loving - corrupt organized crime boss - anti-American - incompetent epic failure - arrogant Black muslim bastard son of a communist whore.
This election continues to be about the very survival of America and the future of my grandchildren.
Obama and his filthy tribe MUST be removed from the Peoples White House, PERIOD. The theft of our country MUST BE STOPPED.
This article needs “[Barf Alert]” in the title.
I will add that Obama is an anti-American, Muslim,Communist POS. And that anyone that doesn't vote against this Chicago thug must want to be starving slave of the government.
I suspect he has so firmly staked himself out as a liberal, he'll never be able to sell even a genuine conservative value.
Moreover, he's a "pragmatist" which means he's willing to accept at face value all the psywar and propaganda-warfare b.s. put out by the Left in the last 20 years, selling the idea that "society is moving to the Left" because NEA leftists have been brainwashing schoolkids -- who then get out of school and begin to learn the truth.
Meanwhile, Romney will do zippo to remove the fiat social-policy decisions that have disfigured public life for nearly 20 years now.
Concurring bump. The original poster will now protest that "WaPo + Katrina Van Den Heuvel" is actually a clever anagram for "extreme projectile vomiting alert/liberal dysenteric logorrhea alert".
His rhetorical claim of being to the left of Swimmer on this issue isn’t really what I was hoping for. I’d kind of like to see actual policy - a bill he advocated for and then signed or some such. But I do see your point - he’s definitely to the left of me there. Barky? Not so much.
It’s hard to be to the left of someone who’s thinks Mao, Lenin and Marx were right-wing rabble-rousers.
Give her a good hard slap and see if that calm her down.
I recommend a 2x4...
LOL, that’d get her attention at least.
Well, you know well that Romney will ban all abortions. Just like Bushitler did!
And THIS is the exact type of voter that O's team hopes to sway!
(Is it true that people with ObamaPhones get 3 AM calls?)
Leapin’ Logic!!
MORE Leaping Logic!
How DARE you even infer that Mitt is less than perfect!
I'm sure that you didn't mean to type this without a LINK to your claimed assertation; did you?
Otherwise; it just sounds like more unproven SLANDER. (or is it LIBEL?)
