"Obama is not a socialist. The new head of the party says so:

Mitt Romney: Obama Is Not A Socialist"

I swear, I'm so furious that Romney will be the nominee against Hussein that I don't know what to do with myself. THAT IDIOT is the last person who should be going up against the Communist-in-Chief. And remember, Willard said that if people are waiting for him to attack Obama, they'll be waiting a long time!

Romney is not an idiot. Neither is he a movement conservative. He is best described as a pragmatist like Nixon. But setting aside his lack of ideological purity, he can bring serious strengths to bear which will make him a tough competitor against the Usurper.

Everyone here complains about, and acknowledges, his brutal but effective campaign in vanquishing his primary competitors. Let us assume he will unleash the same weapons against the Usurper--anyone got problems with that?

Financially he has a huge reservoir of resources available, more than Santorum or Gingrich or all the rest put together could hope to recruit. Romney may be the only guy out there who can go up against the leftwing money machine and not get flattened. That matters.

If he wins, he has the temperament to run things. When he said "I like firing people" he was saying something important about how he might approach reigning in wasteful gubbermint.

His experience in "Vulture Capitalism" may look pretty good when applied against wretched bloated bureaucracies like the Departments of commerce/education/energy/agriculture.

I'm a Newt supporter and have been, but the reality is what it is, it's time to face it and make the best of it.
