Romney moves up as Potential McCain VP
NPR ^ | July 20 | Ron Elving

Posted on 07/20/2008 9:07:44 AM PDT by ConservativeMan55

Once upon a time, people who wanted to be president were not expected to admit it in public. This mask of false indifference had to be dropped when the rise of primaries forced candidates to campaign actively for the office.

FReeper fieldmarshaldj is a good conservative and he can speak for himself. But I agree with him when it comes to exposing Myth Romney's lack of conservatism.

Romney remains a liberal of the first order and no amount of rhetorical hijinks will change that. If Romney wants to join the conservative movement, fine. He'll need to spend the next decade, or two, preaching conservatism to anyone who'll listen. Not just one primary election cycle.

Nothing but a fake 'poll'. Spam at that.

Everyone saw that the RomneyBOT "poll" was fixed. Worse than Zogby, BTW.

The real poll showed Romney to be a loser (hence why the DNC loves him so much).

Member Opinion
Thompson 66.8% 1,658
Romney 12.7% 315


Hope that helps. Have a great day.

A self-described “Very Conservative” individual in the San Francisco Bay area is somebody who supports the Marxist wing of Communist politics as opposed to the Stalinist wing.

Like the seminar callers who always claim to be lifelong conservative Republicans when their call gets on the air.

I'll bet those 12.7% described themselves as "very conservative."

If it were so respectful, then why avoid pinging him? The context was quite clear. You believe you are more politically savvy than JR.

Stop posting to me with you lies and hatred, first.

My responses are quite reasonable after YOUR attacks.
You little Marxists think noone has right to defend themselves.

My favorite quote from a born-again christian politician on christian charity for blacks has to go to George Wallace. His infamous quote when sworn in as governor of Alabama:

In the name of the greatest people that have ever trod this earth, I draw the line in the dust and toss the gauntlet before the feet of tyranny, and I say segregation now, segregation tomorrow, segregation forever.

What a great example of christian treatment for his black brother.

No I think anyone who wants to kill Mormons must be pretty darn close to a Muslim.

Have you noticed that readily both Romney and Obama supporters label any criticism of their candidates as bigotry?

Yep, and to prove it they vote 90% for their candidate...no bigotry there, no sir!
