"Is he a socialist? asks FOX Newss blunt television host Bill OReilly.
I prefer to use the term that hes just over his head, the former governor of Massachusetts responds with what he must have thought was a safe answer.
Yeah, but you gotta look at his economic plan, and that economic plan was top down, federal leadership getting us out of the recession we spent trillions of dollarsand people say, Listen, the guys a socialist! Its class warfare; thats what hes going to wage against you if you get the nomination, OReilly says, gesturing towards Romney.
Youre a rich guy, youre out of touch, the host adds.
Concluding his prediction that Romney should prepare for class warfare should he earn the GOP nomination, Bill OReilly repeats the question.
Is he a socialist?
You know, I consider him a big government liberal democrat. I think as you look at his policies, you conclude that he thinks Europe got it right and we got it wrong, Romney answered, again avoiding the question.
I think Europe got it wrong. I think Europe is not working in Europe and Ill battle him on that day in and day out, Romney added.

Yup. The purists always think they can win. But they can’t. Not in this culture. They just can’t see it, unfortunate as it is.
I’m with you, I’m not going to be happy but anyone will be better than the communist we currently have.
He’s a wimp.
He’s a wimp.
So maybe Mitt thinks Europe got Socialism wrong?
Me thinks me smells a RINO Socialist.
Romney on Obama: You know, I consider him a big government liberal democrat. - - - “
Graewoulf on Romney: You know, I consider him a big government liberal republican. “
What then is the difference between tweedle dumb and tweedle dumber?
What then is the difference between the National Election of 2008 and 2012?
BTW, is it safe to say that our political system is stuck on stupid?
YUP. Barack Hussein Obama.
Both Romney and O’ Reilly don’t want to call Obama a socialist. Why? Because it would alienate the middle who voted for Obama. Nobody wants to be reminded of how badly they were mistaken in the previous election.
I agree with you.
Mitt Romney would be an unmitigated disaster.
One thing is for certain, I am NOT a fan of Romney, and resent the establishment trying to shove him down our throats. It should make people more determined to weed those scumbags out of the GOP.
He only goes negative on GOP candidates.
Romney stinks.

Exactly right.
Oh PULLLEEEEEZZZZZ.
The country elected the current no-executive-experience idiot.
What makes that particular trait the litmus test when the nation’s voters will be looking at right-to-life and LBGT rights with MUCH more interest?
Here comes the Pre-Iowa, FOX-for-Romeny push! It’s all Romney, all the time.
But really? RUN Paul? If so, then get yourself ready for World War 3. He will pull our troops out of every enemy stronghold on the Planet and Iran will nuke Israel, just for starters. But first, they will over run Iraq to get all that ME Oil.
Let’s hope Romney doesn’t get the nomination, but voting third party in mass will elect Obama again. I will vote Romney if he gets the nomination or any other Republican who is nominated. The alternative is unbearable at least to me.
That doesn't sound like victory over our current enemies...but it does sound like a great anti-Mitt commercial.
