If you think you’ve already heard everything there is to know about Mitt Romney, think again. A 200-page document that appears to be Sen. John McCain’s entire 2008 election-year opposition research file on the former Massachusetts governor hit the Internet with a vengeance Tuesday evening. And it’s an eye-opener.
The file explores everything from the assessed value of Romney’s house (“$3.162 million”) to his views on the Boy Scouts’ ban of homosexuals (“publicly opposed … in 1994 and 2002 campaigns”). It was made public Tuesday on the social media website Buzzfeed, although it appears to have been accessible online for two months.
The document, given the name “The Romney Book,” was viewed less than 100 times on the page where it was originally uploaded by its anonymous leaker on November 11.
Go to page 135 of this document.
It says that Romney remained CEO through 2001. It says that even in about 2007 that 75% of the partners had had Romney as boss.
I can’t figure out how to download this thing. Anyone have instructions? The download buttons do nothing when I click on them.
He don't care if he lies to us, but he don't dare lie to the LDS.
Anyway, points well taken on the SC primary. Only a few delegates have been awarded in Iowa and NH so technically, this race is still wide open. Just think, if Newt was to win SC decisively and collect most of the delegates, he will go into Florida well ahead of Romney in terms of delegates.
My only concern is that none of the non-Romney candidates have much money and organization behind them beyond Florida. So it is very important that a non-Romney candidate do well in SC and Florida so that February can be dedicated to raising money and building a national organization in time for Super Tuesday (March 6).
Thx, MTB. I appreciate it.
Destroy him, hell, they should just switch parties and vote for him. He’s no better than Barry Soetoro the Islamic Marxist homo Kenyan.
WOW!

Hummmm.....
But I'm sure Mutt has 'evolved' by now, think?

I’m pretty depressed today. Yesterday I talked to a couple of people (friends and family) that I know are good conservative tea party types - they are completely in for Romney because they believe he is the only one that can beat Obama. I actually got into an argument with one of them - he was adamant about it & calling ME a traitor because I said I wouldn’t vote for Romney. This man was formerly all in for Rick Perry. I know if I would tell him about this document, he would say that getting it out there would cause Obama to win.
The tide is turning and I don’t know if it can be turned back in time - most people ignorantly follow whatever FOX tells them - and think they’re being good conservatives by doing it. I’m afraid the fix is in.
Why in the world has this document been on the internet for two months & we are just now hearing about it? I think, once again, the GOP has decided that they want to lose another presidential election - so they are forcing Romney on us. THE GOP DOESN’T WANT TO CHANGE A THING. They like it just the way it is.
What we should be focusing on big-time, is uprooting the kudzu in Congress - that’s where the garbage is. We’re going to be stuck with four more years of Obama, I can just feel it in my bones. God help us.
You know what, guys? This is exactly what we need to defeat Willard Romney the open socialist. Newt and the Ricks had better hammer him from here to kingdom come with this.
But since we can’t count on the mainstream media to report this, I think I’m going to start working on a series of Youtube videos to go through this chapter by chapter. I’ve got some extra time on my hands now that I’m part of the Obama recovery.
There is no way I consider mitt intelligent. He can’t even think creatively in his debates - he sounds like a moron with the SOS. He’s more robotic than anything.
I could listen to Newt and learn - with Mitt telling me we need jobs and we have to get this country turned around is really a piss poor candidate - all he has is money behind him.
So drop this ‘very gifted’ jazz if you want to stay credible.
I’m guessing that he used every legal trick in the book (and maybe some not-quite-legal ones) to pay less taxes than the average burger-flipper.
So, the GOP is getting Rick-rolled?
Look out, Willard, here comes the Cartman Anal Probe!!
without santorum or perry in the race romney would not win SC.
unfortunatly it is going to take a SC loss to drive perry or santorum out and have them stop wasting out time according to this chart.
WTF....
Hugo Chavez and Romnuts in oil deal?
Bain thru their EU off makes deal with TEHRAN re Iranian OIL?
READ Page 9.
The 1st 9 pages are a real eyeopener. Mc Cain knew all of this and STILL endorsed Romney. SCCCCREEEEEEMMMMIIIINNNG!
