Romney gearing up for 2012 presidential run?
ABC News ^ | Feb 16, 2010

Posted on 02/15/2010 12:36:58 PM PST by presidio9

Is Mitt Romney getting all the pieces together for another run at the White House?

What seems to many as a forgone conclusion may soon become a reality, with the announcement of Matt Rhoades as executive director for Romney's Free and Strong America PAC.

According to an article in Politico, Rhoades, who has served on other presidential campaigns and at the Republican National Committee was communications director for Romney's 2008 run.

With the upcoming release and tour for Romney's new book No Apology: The Case for American Greatness, Romney's 2012 intentions may be one of the worst kept secrets in the country. Incidentally, Romney's book tour will make stops in several key primary states. One tour stop that doesn't fit into the "key" primary category will be Utah, where the former Massachussetts governor and 2002 Winter Olympics leader will visit in March.

So do I, like when they claim Romney is a conservative.

You're starting to sound desperate. Nobody called Romney a conservative that I can remember.

If Mitt gets the R nom, I am with JR, I am gone from the party, no way IN HELL will I EVER vote for him.

Good for you. A failure to vote against Obama is a vote FOR Obama. And just why the heck are you pinging Jim into this thread? Are you worried that you can't make any intelligent points for yourself?

While I'm at it, I sincerely doubt that Jim would actually waste a potential vote against Obama, no matter what he's saying right now.

Just because you don’t like what he says, he isn’t qualified to offer an opinion?

Romney was/is pro-abort and gay marriage. He flip flops and is typical lying scum RINO who participated in character assasination of Palin. All those things have posted on here over and over again.

Mitt bots don’t get far around here, as evidenced by JR himself.

Frankly, I am tired of being accused of ‘voting for Obama’ because I want a CONSERVATIVE candidate and do not think it is a given that Mitt will get the nom. I am tired of RINO’s getting the nomination and the party not listening to me. VOTE THEM OUT and KEEP THEM OUT!!

Secondly, I pinged JR OUT OF COURTESY SINCE I MENTIONED HIM, something YOU failed to do.

You are a typical Mittbot, seriously, going around claiming you are “smarter than everyone else” because you are willing to hold your nose and vote (even though I think you really support Mitt regardless of your protestations).

And don’t you trust JR to keep his word?

We do agree on that - Mitt is a major threat.

Because the guy is a nobody, his opinion is as relevant as anybody else's around here. Buy why quote somebody else's opinion, unless you're too stupid to formulate one of you're own.

Romney was/is pro-abort and gay marriage. He flip flops and is typical lying scum RINO who participated in character assasination of Palin. All those things have posted on here over and over again.

Romeny was also a baby who used to poop in his diapers. Then he changed his mind about that. What's you're point? Contrary to popular belief, I have never been a Romney supporter. I asked an honest question (what makes the man a RINO) and wound up with with a dozen (presumably) Palin supporters ganging up on me like the primary is being fought right now. Guess what? I'm a Palin supporter too, but the presidential primary season is still several political eons away.

Thus far, not one of you people has made a valid case that 2010 Mitt Romney is a RINO. Was he a RINO? Is he slick? Is he insincere? Those are not the topics of my question. Have those debates with somebody else if you like.

I didn’t quote the article, so I don’t have a dog in that fight.

I don’t believe he has honestly changed his mind about abortion or gay marriage. I believe he SAYS he has only because of political expediency.

His policies and his voting record make him a RINO.

Passed Math TYVM. Still not voting for Romney. I know too much about the guy.

And why don’t you put your energy into trying to get a CONSERVATIVE nominated rather than just assuming Romney will be it.

I held my nose and voted for McLame only because Palin was VP. And I will NOT do that again. I have seen the GOP drift away from me because far too many of us have “held our noses and voted” for whomever they put up.

Well, NO MORE! It is time to take back the party!

In that 'cryptic' thread I pointed you to, oklahomaconservative got the zot for far less than what you've said here.

I'm just saying.

Your 2000 'born on' date probably helps you though, if you feel lucky.

Remember, I'm not a Romney fan, I just question the knee-jerk reaction to the guy on this website.

Riiiight....

Though I can't quite put my finger on it, some how I just don't believe you...

LOL!

Perhaps you have posts where you are not fawning over and making excuses for the man else where on FR...

Your insistence that I am a secret Romney supporter is a debate I find beneath my intellect

I hate to say it reaganaut, but he's right you know.

If nothing else, certainly after this thread it is no secret he is a Romneybot...

A big one...

Number one call of the Mittbot:

“Your voting for Obama you know!”

Number two:

“What, you have to ping Jim to the thread?”

The first one is BS, the second just a matter of being a gould citizen of the forum...

I didn’t mention him being a RINO but it fits, and he’s not a pro-life conservative and if previews of his book are any indication , he’s an apologist for man-made global warming/climate change fraud science/cap and tax scheme, which the cap-tax scheme is a sop to his good buddies at goldman sachs and bain capital. Just like the vig that the casinos get.
