Here is a quote of Mitt’s about Jesse Helms that I had not seen before.

In the 1994 campaign, Romney also proudly labeled himself a moderate. “I’m not a partisan politician,” he said in an interview with The Post that fall. “My hope is that, after this election, it will be the moderates of both parties who will control the Senate, not the Jesse Helmses.”

In his 1994 debate with Kennedy, Romney also refused to endorse the “Contract With America,” which House Republicans had proudly presented as their campaign manifesto, and he balked when Kennedy tried to link him to the Reagan administration. “I was an independent during the time of Reagan-Bush,” Romney retorted.

Jesse Helms would kick Romney’s pansie assed butt clean up between his socialist ears.

I remember that debate, and Teddy snickering as that weasel Romney tried to run to his left. Teddy was the conservative in the race.

The GOP is setting us up again, led by Fox News.
