Abbreviated transcript:
Reporter: < Long, rambling, agenda-driven question>
Romney (interrupting): Do you have a point of view on this?
Reporter: I represent the people, governor. (!!!)
Romney: No, I represent the people, you represent the media.
Saw this posted a few weeks ago. Still viable. These liberal media types are so full of themselves that they think they've been appointed by God.
I'm getting to like Mitt more and more.
We need to start a letter writing campaign to the Dinosaur media telling them we are tired of hearing their reports claim to represent us when they really represent the editors.
He's the real deal.
I have to say I wish he'd been able to accomplish more here, but he's been undermined at every turn by the liberal Mass weenies and the whining Mass media.
But I think he's a solid citizen and would make an awfully good President.
Nice quip by Romney.
The arrogance of this reporter shows no bounds. It also illustrates why these liberal scribblers dare not venture from their liberal forts. If they did they'd need to use all their time picking their teeth off the floor and not writing propaganda.
This really happened?
Scripted?
He's not my favorite, but definitely preferable to Rudy or McCain.
I'm getting to like Mitt more and more.
Ditto that
This is the kind of thing that makes me rejoice whenever stock in the MSM heads south.
I've liked him for awhile. He feels comfortable in the spotlight, speaks well, answers questions with tact. I'd consider voting for him. I think he will surprise many people.
Informed Evangelical Christians won't support Romney because he is a Mormon. If Mormon doctrine becomes more widely known (see http://www.carm.org/lds/lds_doctrines.htm) then he will quickly lose the support of even nominal Christians.

Whoa!! I never knew any of this. I'm just... speechless.
Most people don't, which is why it's important to get the information out. Romney is dead in the water when a savvy reporter asks him "So Gov Romney you believe that God used to be a man on another world and that he became a god by following the laws and ordinances of his god on his home world and that he brought his wife to this world, a woman he had married on the other world."
"While many religious conservatives may have qualms with aspects of Mormon theology, they have even greater problems with religious bigotry and intolerance. Any candidate that chooses to attack his faith in a personal fashion will surely run the risk of a backlash."
Interesting since the Mormons believe in the same God as the Evangelical Christians. The problem is I feel that the Evangelical Christians perhaps are a little disturbed that some of their "flock" might be stolen. There should be room for ALL Christians to live in complete harmony. To say not is to say that they don't really believe in the teachings of Christ. Wow!
You are so misinformed that it is pathetic.
