Watch John Roberts interview Mitt Romney.

(CNN) - Just when you think you’ve heard everything in this race for the White House, along comes something truly surprising. Such was the case on Thursday's American Morning. I was speaking with former Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney about Sen. John McCain's new line of attack against Sen. Barack Obama. McCain hopes to paint Obama as a politician who puts party and self-interest above the needs of the nation, claiming that the Illinois senator has “never been a part of a bipartisan group that came together to solve a controversial issue”.

This morning, Romney faithfully repeated that charge. When I pointed out that Obama reached across party lines to work with Sen. Richard Lugar, R-Indiana, on a non-proliferation measure, and with Sen. Gordon Smith, R-Oregon, on increasing gas mileage requirements, Romney shot back, saying that “Actually, on both cases, you’re talking about two liberal positions, non-proliferation as well as the gasoline mileage."

Watch: Romney attacks Obama

It struck me as rather odd – having covered five years of the Bush administration as a White House correspondent – that the governor would view non-proliferation as a “liberal” issue. I seem to recall a little ditty called the “Proliferation Security Initiative,” launched by President Bush on May 31, 2003. The aim of the initiative is to enlist the nations of the world to “stop trafficking of weapons of mass destruction, their delivery systems and related materials to and from states and non-state actors of proliferation concern.” Whether the program is a success is very much in question (though the administration claims it is), but I’ve never heard anyone call it a “liberal” position.

Ok, I listened to this. Romney so badly butchered his point. The point was that Obama has liberal ideals. Did he say that? No. He said he was stubborn and didn't think for himself, opting instead to follow the party. The spin was to take his liberalism and portray it as a lack of leadership and combine it with ignorance, arrogance, and partisanship.

This is a calculated attack by people who professionally twist words and meanings. They are half truths that add up to a distortion that might as well be a lie. George Orwell would be proud.

IBYE !!!   June 26th, 2008 4:54 pm ET

Romney shot back, saying that “Actually, on both cases, you’re talking about two liberal positions, non-proliferation as well as the gasoline mileage.".................YOU are spinning YOR WHEELS....... MCSame
will not choose U........BYE NOW!!!!

MurphyMorseJohnson   June 26th, 2008 4:50 pm ET

Romney is full of bologne. He like John McCain is part of the filthy rich Republican crowd that refers to anything good regular families as liberal. In truth, it is the Romneys who put themselves first and what's good for the country second! Regular families know all about the Republican Economy–$5 gas per gallon, trillions to Iraq, trillions owed to China, joblessness instead of jobs, health costs instead of health insurance, education for the rich only, mortgage mania for the rest. Romney–you were a mediocre governor and should go back into the used car business of the Ramblers your father tried to sell before he became "brainwashed".

velmeezee   June 26th, 2008 4:48 pm ET

Hey Angus, catch up please! Your sentiments are so 3 months ago. Obama has consistentently stated his plans numerous times. McCain is the one who hasnt. He can't remember them long enough. And by now anyone who cares knows plenty enough about Obama to decide whether he is the best choice for the next POTUS. If YOU don't know "jack" about him that's YOUR own bad. Get off CNN and do some real research. Then come back if you have something truthful to say.

Greg, Brattleboro, VT   June 26th, 2008 4:44 pm ET

Folks, your attacks against Obama are empty.

OBAMA forever!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

bob   June 26th, 2008 4:44 pm ET

"I ask Barack to borrow $30 to pay for gas, and he has yet to respond. That's rude considering $30 is not a lot of money."

but in order for you to save the $30, people will lose jobs, hiway and bridges do not get built or maintained. The oil companies can go up on the price so the savings is nill. the gas tax holiday is a GIMMICK!

McClinton Supporter from Ohio   June 26th, 2008 4:42 pm ET

The real point is that Obama has never stood up to the Democrtic special interest groups ( BIG LABOR, TRAIL LAWYERS, The something for nothing crowd) . McCain has faced the special interests in the Republican party and has the scares to prove it. But he is a person of conviction, courage and principals. Obama has always rolled over to Democratic special interest groups. He lacks courage!!!

beevee   June 26th, 2008 4:38 pm ET

It is obvious that Romney is sucking up to McCain. He will stoop to any level to be a VP nominee. That is politics

Joe   June 26th, 2008 4:37 pm ET

Mitt the moron. So he wants offshore drilling and is upset that Barack doesn't? Here's what the G.O.P. doesn't understand. The voters this time are the youtube generation. We can *immediately* look up a fact and determine just how true or false it is.

In the case of offshore oil drilling, it's a complete scam to help big oil companies. Don't be fooled, people. Between 1999 and 2007, permits for drilling oil went up 361%, yet only 17% of the leases acquired to drill oil actually have anyone drilling on them. First, have you seen your oil bill or electric bill go down? Of course not. Second, why aren't the other 84% of oil areas being drilled? And why do they still want more offshore drilling areas?

Folks, big oil simply wants to hold onto these leases and drill for oil when it's even more expensive. They're holding onto it like a stock, waiting for it to ride to a higher price. Again, *84%* of the oil leases TODAY are not being drilled. Ask yourself why that is. McCain is looking to help his cronies and couldn't care less about reducing the price of gas. Even he recently admitted that it wouldn't reduce the price of gas anyway.

Robert   June 26th, 2008 4:35 pm ET

No, idiot Romney, the point was that Obama did reach across party lines on both instances – doesn't matter what the issue was. So you and your pal McBush are both wrong – AGAIN.

Neil K, Lake Forest CA   June 26th, 2008 4:32 pm ET

Non-proliferation isn't a liberal issue. It's a humanity issue.

John   June 26th, 2008 4:26 pm ET

Just keep drinking the Obama cool aid...The market's down 358 points today if you elect the Marxist Obama it'll be down 3500 points.

Thanks Roberts   June 26th, 2008 4:25 pm ET

we need more journalists like you to call these lying Republicans on the carpet. We, as a country, cannot afford more of the Gray Old party to lie and cheat as they have been for the last 8 years.

Tino   June 26th, 2008 4:24 pm ET

Mitt the Loser Romney's comments this morning are nothing but futile efforts to impress John Mcain so that he can be picked as his running mate, but honestly why should people believe this looser who not so long agao ran the most negative campaign in the GOP Primaries against Mcain has all of a sudden been "born again"

Keith in Rhode Island   June 26th, 2008 4:22 pm ET

Mitt Romney is another rich republican robot who lacks the smarts to do anything but parrot party rhetoric. He's a haircut with no charisma, and no real ideas. Why do we even care about his thoughts on this subject? He LOST his own party's nomination.

Zed   June 26th, 2008 4:22 pm ET

Thank you Gov. Romney for acknowledging that keeping weapons out of the hands of terrorists is indeed a "liberal issue." Republican administrations have been doing just the opposite for the past 30 years (arming Iran, Iraq, the Contras, the Taliban, and Saudi Arabia).

Who's tough on terror now?

Not surprising   June 26th, 2008 4:17 pm ET

I saw the interview and I was very disappointed that Roberts did not
follow this question up as it was an outlandish statement. Remember the primaries when Mitt was out everyday occusing McCain of sneaky underhanded tricks? Now that he wants to be VP, McCain walks on water. What does that tell you about this man's character?

Romney is an extremely unlikable fellow, which is why he didn't win the nomination. I just hope that McCain selects him to be VP. I was very offended by Romney attempting to use his personal fortune to buy the election and I suspect that many other Americans felt the same way. He reminds me of a slick car salesman and it's hard to even look at his face.

An American   June 26th, 2008 4:15 pm ET

Romney doesn't care about Americans, all he cares about is his stupid hair

Jimmyapolis   June 26th, 2008 4:13 pm ET

Mitt Romney is the biggest tool this nation has ever known. Give me a break. He literally makes me puke. Does everyone forgot what a rude scumbag he was toward McCain during the primary? Now he's his lap dog. What a tool. A tool that doesn't fit.

EE   June 26th, 2008 4:10 pm ET

Looks like the town in Texas is not the only one looking for it's idiot.

Jack from California   June 26th, 2008 4:05 pm ET

Interesting that the republicans would call the move to increase gas mileage for cars a "liberal view"

I guess consuming more gas than is needed and causing a short supply which raises the price and profits for a few like Romney is just what the republican party stands for.

We have seen what 8 years of republican leadership has brought the country in the form of $5/gallon gasoline and a stock market heading South. Will so called "liberal policies" do more damage then the conservative agenda of the past 8 years has already inflicted on America?

YOLA   June 26th, 2008 4:04 pm ET

Romney is a loser on every front! He has the look of a very dishonest salesman and he just can't get beyond that.

AHH   June 26th, 2008 4:04 pm ET

Jo Ann   June 26th, 2008 4:02 pm ET

I do not care what Mitt Rommey thinks or says he is one of McCain's

could not buy himself into the whitel house.

It's all about the oil baby   June 26th, 2008 3:59 pm ET

On being Liberal

I remember four years ago when the Republican Party called anyone and everyone who didn't follow G.W as being "liberal." Since that time, this once fine country has been trashed. Jobs being lost, jobs going over seas. Nothing done to secure the borders and ports. Over 4,100 killed in a sensless war where no one could possibly win and I can go on, and on, and on.

Now there is a "Conservative" that want's to win the White House bid. This "Conservative" has spent five years in a POW camp. That does not make him Presidential material.

I do not want a man, with such high family and moral values, that he thought so little of his wife and chose to flaunt his affairs in the public eye.

Nor do I want a man who, because of his despicable behavior and high moral values chose to divorce his crippled wife and marry the rich tart just one month after the divorce was finalized.

I am surprised just how many people think they can excuse this type of behavior but, unlike them, I will vote for the person that respects their spouse and family because that person would also respect their country.

McCain is not that type of person.

Kim, Charlotte, NC   June 26th, 2008 3:59 pm ET

Marc PDX....I I guess you have been watching FOX news. Obama put his career on hold by turning down high paying jobs after Law school to help the less fortunate.

So again.....McCain and his followers want to continue to demoralize Obama and name call every chance they get.

So childish.........

Obama Supporter from FL   June 26th, 2008 3:58 pm ET

I'm not a mormon, but I really think it is offensive for people to criticize mormons by saying they are a cult or they are polygamists. The mormon church EXCOMMUNICATES polygamists!

Look, I think Mitt Romney is a moron with bad ideas who comes across as fake, but that doesn't mean we can't be respectful to people of other faiths.

Blaine, NY   June 26th, 2008 3:55 pm ET

I agree with Romney. Get off your high horse Roberts. Obama just voted with the Republicans to make himself look different.

He's a fake and we all see it.

Bruce   June 26th, 2008 3:54 pm ET

He is soooo right. Fuel conservation and higher fuel economy standards are liberal crack-pot issues. So is nuclear proliferation, global warming, education, universal healthcare, and anything else that would actually benefit ordinary citizens. I guess the conservative agenda would include wasting fuel, encouraging a nuclear shoot-out, propping up the insurance, drug, oil, auto, tobacco and energy industries no matter what they do to us. How did Mitt ever lose in the primaries?

Peter   June 26th, 2008 3:54 pm ET

Mitt Romney is attacking Obama after McLame did it to him and thats what killed Romney's campaign, the fact that he thinks its right to do now is why im not a republican...

If "liberal" is your only attack, then Obama have in the bag. Notice McCain's got others to stick their foot in their mouths on his behalf. Thanks Romney and Black. Don't make up lies to help your campaign. Ask Hillary about that. It won't work at all. You're fooling nobody.

Sebastian   June 26th, 2008 3:45 pm ET

Good work John. This is in the spirit of Tim Russert ... always prepared with facts to refute the obfuscation of a politician.

The rest of the media should be talking notes. This is what we expect.

Mitt is lame.

Richard, St. Paul, MN   June 26th, 2008 3:45 pm ET

There goes Romney, speaking without his brain again..... but then he's been doing that for about a decade now. He should go into stand up comedy if he's going to speak without facts... and so should the rest of the Republicans. Facts seem to be like kryptonite to these crooks.

That's because the GOP has distorted the term "liberal" beyond all sense of the word. It no longer has meaning.
All republicans have left after a disastrous 7 years is to call anything they don't like or agree with "liberal."

Len in Washington   June 26th, 2008 3:34 pm ET

Romney is an elitist, arrogant, and self-serving–all the things the Republicans are saying about Barack. I certainly hope McCain does not pick him as V-P candidate. But they would make a good "Flip Flopper" team! John Roberts – you always give good interviews!

I wonder if there is anything that they might say about "POLICY" rather than expending all their energy trying to bring BARAK "THE NEXT PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES" down with their small talk...""

BUSH/ CHENEY/ ,MCWAR/ McROMNEY.....what a bunch of winners

Rudy NYC   June 26th, 2008 3:30 pm ET

Obama picks another endorsement, which means the next line of GOP attack will be to go after Obama's endorsers as anti-American, anti-Semitic, etc., because Hamas endorsed Obama.

Here's the logic behind so many GOP attacks, most recently Romney.

England is an island.
I am standing on the island of Puerto Rico.
That means I must be in England.

For all of you loser-liberal Romney bashers... Mitt Romney has great hair. That's why he lost the primaries. McCain and the others were jealous of his hair and got together to undermine his campaign. It was not about the issues. It was about his hair.

Liberals especially hate nice hair.

Don't let them get to you, Mitt! Romeny '20!

JB in NJ   June 26th, 2008 3:23 pm ET

What do you expect an empty suit like Romney to say? The guy is a big zero. He reminds me of that talking head that Chris Matthews recently put in his place. The guy was parroting the Republican talking points and he was exposed on the air for not knowing what he was talking about. Sounds like Romney's younger brother.

Too bad Roberts did not ask a follow-up and ask Romney if he thinks Lugar is a liberal too! That would have been a good question. Lugar is very popular in IN. Would like to see how Romney would characterize Lugar if you put him on the spot to see what would come out of his mouth.

DJ, LA, CA   June 26th, 2008 3:18 pm ET

Yes it is "odd" how the method of Romney's hate-filled madness is purely based on comparing himself to Reagan and dismissing anything positive a Democrat has done as "liberal agendas".

Odd yes, but highly predictable for Mitt. Obviously he was only concerned about smearing and spreading lies about Obama and...since you put him in his place, he basically had no comeback except the "L" word.

A Nightingale Sings in Berkley Square   June 26th, 2008 3:16 pm ET

MITT IS ONE SMART PERSON.

McCain likes the labor members, He will go to bat for them time after time. The union leadership, however, should get on a boat to South America as they will be persona non gratis.

obama is a disaster waiting to happen. He will tax and spend our money and give big hand outs to the welfare queens in the ghetto, THEN HE WILL TAKE OUR GUNS AWAY.

He has no plans to withdraw our troops from Iraq. Just big talk. A lot of hot air. No one wants our soldiers in Iraq but no intelligent person wants them out of there so Iran can get control of that oil rich country. So be careful about the guy with cotton candy speeches with no truth to them.

Vote for McCain, he will be on your side.

Nunya   June 26th, 2008 3:09 pm ET

Wake up and pay attention. All politicians speak in something of a shorthand at times, because they can't explain every last detail in terms that everyon moron will understand. Proliferation as a term or political topic isn't liberal in and of itself, but the attitude with which you approach that topic very much can be. The liberal attitude is that you believe you actually can trust that others can be convinced and/or trusted to cut back on their stockpiles. The conservative attitude on the topic generally is that such trust is unwarranted and there is nothing to be done other than make sure that you use yours while they're bigger than the other guy's. Since the group in question was promoting that an approach of cutting back, then yes, it qualifies as 'liberal'.

And clearly, any attempt by the government to force companies to adhere to mileage guidelines is environmentalist and promoting big-government – how much more clearly liberal can you get?

Marc PDX   June 26th, 2008 3:06 pm ET

So, let me see if I understand this by using recent examples. When Clinton was president he worked out a deal with North Korea to prevent their development of nuclear weapons. But his approach was via "dialog" only – and trust and mutual respect. And the North Koreans secretly developed nuclear weapon technology until George Bush became president and demanded (and wouldn't back down) 6 party carrot & stick negotiations with verification requirements. Today, as reported by CNN below, North Korea came clean on its nuclear weapons program. Now, tell me which party is better at finding and stopping nuclear proliferation? I know, I know: it's the Democrats and Barak is going to show us how it's done by having a meaningful dialog with the extremely right wing Theocracy in Tehran – or else he'll leave them alone altogether (which is what I suspect will really happen). Either way it will probably lead to Israel dealing with the problem directly and the US having a worse problem land back in our lap. But "we love you, Obama" because we're airheads!

Dont you know....? Republicans LIE like people breathe. It come naturally to them... and when you try to stop em, they fight to the death...

John   June 26th, 2008 3:04 pm ET

My daughter has a relevant bumper sticker: "Real conservatives conserve the environment". "Phony" conservatives like Bush, McCain, and Romney conserve the oil companies...and the pharmaceutical companies, and the auto companies, and any other industry that buys its way into the righthand side of congress. Liberal policies? Here are a few, compliments of Bush and his Republican minions: A "spend now pay later" fiscal policy; a "don't worry about emergeny management, immigration, infrastructure, education" policy; a "shoot first and don't bother me with the details" policy in Iraq; a "screw our constitutional right to privacy policy; etc. These aren't just liberal policies, these are radical policies! We must not allow this to continue.

AH   June 26th, 2008 3:02 pm ET

If Barack Obama puts Hilary Clinton in as the "VP" look out McCain.
Obama/Clinton will be leading in triple digits.

Noah   June 26th, 2008 3:01 pm ET

Mitt was my least favorite of everyone that ran this year. I'm an Obama supporter but I’m VERY glad that McCain won the nomination. Now I just hope he doesn’t select him for his running mate.

VB Lincoln Park NJ   June 26th, 2008 3:00 pm ET

Any criticism of Obama from losers like Romney are worthy only of the laughter they engender.

So sorry "swift-boat" liars, it's not going to work this time.

oil rules   June 26th, 2008 2:58 pm ET

It is funny how legislating better gas mileage will help. Just because congress tells automakers to get better mileage doesn't mean it is possible. Of course one fast and easy way to do it is to cut down on the steel and add more plastic in cars. Which of course hurts the steel industry and makes the cars more prone to being death traps. Talk about lives for economy......

Vincent from Ireland   June 26th, 2008 2:57 pm ET

Too bad mitt wasn't the repub nominee, the beat down the GOP would receive would have been even fiercer in November....what a tool.

Nate   June 26th, 2008 2:55 pm ET

It's amazing they consider these things liberal issues. It's kinda like global warming. I never understood why it was a political issue. Oh, wait I remember. Big Oil, Coal, Auto, and Industry paid the Republicans to fight against something that would be bad for business for them. It's criminal that the goverment took part in that deception.

A lot of these issues become politicized because someone gets paid to support an agenda, and despite how much sense a particular position makes, they take the other side.

Donkey Party   June 26th, 2008 2:53 pm ET

I really hope McAncient is still considering this dolt for VP... then the landslide will be an avalanche of epic proportions.

heartlight 3, Maui, HI   June 26th, 2008 2:53 pm ET

Using the term "liberal" as a dirty word is so yesterday. Today "liberal" means progressive and looking forward instead of backward.

Man Without a Planet   June 26th, 2008 2:52 pm ET

I heard someone say that if McCain won they were moving to Canada.
But if Obama wins where can one go?

Danel   June 26th, 2008 2:51 pm ET

It's the silly season folks. Parrots are coming home to roast. Romney will sing like a canary just so McCain will put him as a VP. Thanks to Romney I am paying more for my medical out of pocket.

Dorian in NC   June 26th, 2008 2:50 pm ET

GREAT JOB INTERVIEWING JOHN!!

I had a Tim Russert flashback because you made Romney face commonsense questions when attacking false claims.

Continue that vigor with EVERYONE politician, Democrat & Republican...

Mitt Romney has what eight kids? Can I relate to him. no.

Peter E   June 26th, 2008 2:46 pm ET

Why do you think the term 'neo-conservative' was coined? It's because we, true conservatives left the republican party, disgusted by their foreign interventionism, their excessive federalism, and record deficit spending!
Vote Libertarian! Vote for freedom!

Chut Pata   June 26th, 2008 2:45 pm ET

McCain has successfully "Out-Bushed" Mitt Romney to become the pub nominee and hence McBush. Mitt is just licking his wounds.

Compared to the neo-con Mitt Romney, McCain is a democrat!!!

Ryan from Denver   June 26th, 2008 2:45 pm ET

Roberts,
By definition "(bi)partisan" highlights parties! To say the "non-proliferation measure" and "increasing gas mileage requirements" are "liberal" measures does not negate their 'partisaness'. I hope you were able to point out Romney's category error—responding to your remarks with “liberal” is arguable, but more importantly, it renders the statement “never been a part of a bipartisan group that came together to solve a controversial issue” FALSE.

Peter E   June 26th, 2008 2:44 pm ET

Face it: it's not as if the republicans have been truly 'conservative' ever since Reagan, and especially since Bush. That's why millions of us left them.
Or did you think that foreign interventionism and record deficit spending are 'conservative?'
Vote Ron Paul! Vote to respect the Constitution! Vote for change you can TRUST in!

Proud Vet   June 26th, 2008 2:43 pm ET

Mr. John King, what did you expect the mitt to say? he is just a repugnant simple mind

Ryan, New York, NY   June 26th, 2008 2:39 pm ET

Silly liberals try to increase fuel efficiency. Why can't they simply see that we can drill for more oil? It's not like there's a limited supply or anything.

Twit Romney for VP.

Mark   June 26th, 2008 2:39 pm ET

Romney is an amazingly stupid and opportunistic politician. He reminds one of Bush but with better luck in business. What wouldn't he say or do to become McCain's VP?

He is a politician in the meanest sense. What Romney certainly is not is a public servant of the American people.

Adam Habib Dallas, TX   June 26th, 2008 2:39 pm ET

What is Mit Romney's policy? He was govt govt healthcare and now he is against it. He was Anti-abortion and then he was against it.

Shelly in IL   June 26th, 2008 2:37 pm ET

Seems to me as if Sen. Obama cant get a break from these blood-sucking GOP's. That's alright, because Sen. John Kerry will back Obama and wage an attack against Mitt.

Marc PDX   June 26th, 2008 2:36 pm ET

I live in Oregon and although Gordon Smith runs as a Republican, if he were in an eastern state he would be solidly a Democrat. Jim Webb (D-Va), for instance is considerably more conservative than Gordon Smith. So it's hardly a case of reaching across party lines to work with him.

Ex-mod-GOP for Obama   June 26th, 2008 2:35 pm ET

Nice try, but that dog don't hunt. If this is the best they have (and it certainly seems to be), then Obama will win hugely in November.

Marc PDX   June 26th, 2008 2:32 pm ET

The actual McCain quote was “[Obama] has never put his career on the line for a cause greater than himself". Neither of these two positions referred to constitute putting his career on the line as they are positions that liberals support. It happens that conservatives also support non-proliferation but neither issue is "going out on a limb" for Barak Obama. That was the point being made and sadly CNN wants to parse words and deflect the issue away from the original point. (Yes, Romney said it poorly – but the point that Obama hasn't ever risked anything to stand up for a position is the actual point on the table here).

Willow, from Iowa   June 26th, 2008 2:28 pm ET

Of course, nonproliferation is now a liberal view. The conservatives want McCain as President and he wants World War III. Ought to start calling him McGoldwater.

Beverly, NYC   June 26th, 2008 2:28 pm ET

Spoken like a true member of the rich elite, non-proliferation and gasoline mileage are American issues. I guess these issue only affect the little guy, we care about $4 gas and our children being used as pawns in unnecessary wars. Can't wait to see McCain spin Romney's comments and blame Obama. Just what the country needs a new older decider. Can we move up the election so this stupidity can be over!!!!

OBAMA

J from PA   June 26th, 2008 2:27 pm ET

Obama, 'the next great Communicator' continues to pander on about his bipartisanship, but has nothing of substance to show for it. He is an arrogant Senator who lacks any true productivity in the Senate. He needs to spend more time in the trenches learning more about being a representative from his state, before he can even hope to be the commander in chief.

Gary B   June 26th, 2008 2:27 pm ET

John Roberts, do your job! You started to question him but then said 'what John McCain's campaign says' then you let him slide on lies. ASK HIM TO GIVE EXAMPLES OF WHAT HE'S SAYING! Then, challenge him if it incorrect!!!

I wish you would stop bringing these pundits on to just banter the 'message of the day'

Gary

Peter Frederick   June 26th, 2008 2:25 pm ET

To Lisa. Barack's answer to the $30/summer gas gimmick that effectively gives the money to the oil companies is $1000 in tax rebate. Surely you can take the $30 out of that.

Not fooled by distractions.   June 26th, 2008 2:23 pm ET

Knowing Mitt Romney he probably had no earthly idea what Mr. Roberts was talking about. When you send out a surrogate, at least send one with some snap. Poor choice in using that squawking flip flopper Romney. Lord, imagine the world of hurt we'd be in with McSame/Romney running the show. Dumb and Dumber.

Cheaters always Prosper   June 26th, 2008 2:22 pm ET

I just realized that John McCain reminds me of Randall from Monster's Inc. you know the you know the lizard with the ability to change his color from purple and blue to blend into his surroundings at will, much like a chameleon, making him invisible.

He worked as a Scarer for the power company (Hmmm... what party is in power now?), and was working on a way to eventually rise to the leader of that company.

Funny how art imitates life.

Bob PDX   June 26th, 2008 2:21 pm ET

So did John Roberts bring this information up to Romney as a follow up question? If so, what was Romney's response? If Roberts did not bring this up as a follow up question, he failed the interview. If he had to do a bunch of research afterward to come up with this information and then extrapolate it out in this article, it comes off more as an opinion piece than news.

Joe - Chicago, IL   June 26th, 2008 2:20 pm ET

Those crazy liberals and their desire for Fuel Effeciency and Non-proliferation. Next thing you know those crazy liberals will call for public education and giving women and minorities the right to vote.

tina   June 26th, 2008 2:19 pm ET

Kick Hillary to the Curb   June 26th, 2008 2:19 pm ET

Mitt ROmney is speaking like an idiot! Painting someone a Liberal but the right policies doesn't make Barack a bad candidate. Mitt stop trying so hard to get the VP, you so selfish! You have no interest in AMerica! You are an aristocrat from a cult religion.

MMN - Milwaukee WI   June 26th, 2008 2:19 pm ET

Romney:

If you keep your mouth shut, your foot will not end up in it.

skunkrat The Marine   June 26th, 2008 2:19 pm ET

Another IDIOT, he doesn't even know the meaning of non proliferation.
Mitt is a good example of a misinformed talking head. If the issues mentioned were so liberal, why was it necessary for Sen. Obama to reach out to his Republican counterparts. This guy had to get lucky in business, he would be homeless if he had been required to think.

Debbie,Ewing,Nj   June 26th, 2008 2:19 pm ET

McBush and friends you are very stupid. Didn't you learn anything from the primaries. Attacking Obama was Hillary's main tactic. It didn't work for her it won't work for you. While you're trying to throw people off from focusing on you by attacking Obama, we are looking to see what you are made of. So far, it looks like nothing but war and more war.

Chris in Oregon   June 26th, 2008 2:16 pm ET

I guess Romney just showed the country his views are out dated and idiotic. Good job, Mitt!

tim in carroll   June 26th, 2008 2:16 pm ET

WELL IT LOOKS LIKE THE REPUBLICAN HACKS ALL GOT TGETHER AND DECIDED TO START CALLING BARACK OBAMA NAMES.

THEY ARE APPARENTLY SO OLD AND TIRED THAT THEY DON'T DON'T REMEMBER THEIR CHILDHOODS. WHEN THEY CALLED PEOPLE NAMES BACK IN THIRD GRADE, THEIR POOR LITTLE TARGETS DIDN'T BECOME WHAT THEY PATHETICALLY TRIED TO CALL THEM.

AND THEN ADULTS WOULD HAVE TO TELL THEM TO KNOCK IT OFF!

WELL, REPUB LICANS, WE ADULTS UNDERSTAND YOUR PROBLEM. YOUR CANDIDATE McCAIN IS LIMP. HE MEETS SECRETLY WITH BUSH SUPPORTERS AND THEN SUDDENLY HE'S IN FAVOR OF OFF-SHORE DRILLING. WE CAN'T WAIT TO SEE WHAT HE COMES UP WITH NEXT AFTER HIS SECRET MEETING WITH CONSERVATIVES EARLIER TODAY.

IT'S TRULY SAD THAT YOUR PARTY IS SO DEVOID OF LEADERS THAT YOU CAN'T THINK UP ANYTHING NICE TO SAY ABOUT McCAIN.

WE ADULTS – AND THE REST OF AMERICA – ARE VOTING FOR OBAMA AND MOVING FORWARD. YOU CAN STAY BACK THE IN THIRD GRADE WHERE YOU'RE OBVIOUSLY COMFORTABLE.

Will from NYC   June 26th, 2008 2:15 pm ET

Improved gas milage is often a by-product of engineering advances by all automakers (engine power, tire design, lighter and stronger frame/body materials, etc.)

Romney and his ilk are doomed to repeating the mistakes of the past. Go back to school...brush up on some history duncecap!!

Kavin   June 26th, 2008 2:14 pm ET

WHY is Mitt Romney still getting time in front of a camera. He's a joke – completely changed his views and was noted as a liar during the campaign. He's desperate to become VP – even changing his nasty tune against John McCain over the past few months.

Edmund   June 26th, 2008 2:14 pm ET

Mitt Romney needs to go to Utah and farm wheat or something. The more he talks, the more my head hurts. I would sooner eat a ball of aluminum foil soaked in chicken fat than listen to him anymore. At this point, voting for a Republican is the same thing as putting a bullet in our future's head, and stealing it's wallet as it dies.

Proud American   June 26th, 2008 2:13 pm ET

Romney is such an idiot. So the two things that Barack reached across the aisle dont count cause they are liberal?!? Better gas mileage and proliferration benefit ALL Americans!! Especiallly in the world we live today. Not only are you and your Republican buddies out of touch you're also too stupid to know just how stupid you are.

britney spears   June 26th, 2008 2:13 pm ET

Thanks for confirming that Repubs don't consider nuclear non-proliferation to be an important issue.

Which would help explain why our Repub Admin outed a CIA operative working on that very same issue.

Pathetic ya'll....

Tim Weiss   June 26th, 2008 2:13 pm ET

Way to bring in the straw-man, Mitt...

John, Brooklyn, New York   June 26th, 2008 2:12 pm ET

Case in point that Mitt Romney has no content – only talking points. And, of course, the core of all Republican talking points is the following formula: 1) avoid the facts, 2) if the facts don't fly, call them a name (in this case "arrogant" and 3) if 1 and 2 don't work...just call them a liberal.

It worked on the playground when we were kids, but the political equivalent to "And your mom wears combat boots" just makes Mitt Romney look partisan ans silly. Besides....the tired use of the "L-bomb" is so hackneyed – America is so over the old style political games.

PG   June 26th, 2008 2:12 pm ET

Ian stated: "Mitt Romney is a tool. If he's so for the war in Iraq why hasn't one single one of his sons gone over there to fight?"

I agree. Bush, Romney, McSame, all want this conflict in Iraq to continue but their children/family members are not willing to step up to the plate and fight their war for them. There too busy making wedding plans and spending money.

Rational1   June 26th, 2008 2:09 pm ET

Is putting your foot in your mouth is the new "high five"? So much for the "fist bump". Their transparency is blinding. Has anyone noticed that almost everything these guys have said, has come back to haunt them in some way? Is it just me?

Farrell, Houston, Tx   June 26th, 2008 2:07 pm ET

Mitt Romney may be a smart man but to me he is a real "ODD BALL" and it is unclear what his agenda is.

Debby   June 26th, 2008 2:03 pm ET

I agree with Romney about Obama raising taxes. There is no way his economic plan is going to work if he doesn't. I disagree that Obama doesn't work across the isle even if Romney said those were liberal issues but Obama did make the effort to work with Republicans.

Justin from West Haven, CT   June 26th, 2008 2:03 pm ET

Scott   June 26th, 2008 1:58 pm ET

Selective political memory at it's finest.
The problem is that the "Red-Staters" will gobble up what McCain and/or Romney says without question. Only us truly informed voters will know the realtiy and based on what happened in 2000 and 2004 I fear forthe results of the 2008 Presidential election.
Beleive it or not I am a registered Republican who voted for the Democratic candidate in 2000 and 2004.
Like any well-inromed voter I vote the issues, not the candidate.

Dave   June 26th, 2008 1:50 pm ET

So typical and predictable… When a loud-mouthed conservative twit like Romney is faced with issues he knows nothing about (not an unusual scenario), he trots out the “liberal” label and attacks the positions of others while offering nothing coherent himself. This is exactly why this loser got his clock cleaned. Then again, one would think that a chickenhawk like Romney would know plenty about non-proliferation – at least on a personal level. Go home idiot…

Phil in KC   June 26th, 2008 1:49 pm ET

That's an easy one. Anything that Obama supports will be labeled as "Liberal". And all the Ditto-heads will boo it and support that postion. Too bad for them that, for the majority of Americans, "Liberal" is not a dirty word – just a political position

Emma, San Jose, CA   June 26th, 2008 1:49 pm ET

Who does Romney think he is kidding? He is salivating about the possibility of being a Vice President and one step away from the presidency. What a puppet he is turning out to be.

Oh My~ Romney has taken Liberal-bashing to a whole new level. Romney is certainly trying to win the audition for VP isn't he. His ineptitude on this and other issues epitomizes the core of the Republican Party....They have no platform to run on other than "fear and smear" and this just adds a new one.......ignorance!

Anything that makes you think Bush is a Democrat is some powerful psychotropic stuff.

Patrick Henry, Ft. Myers   June 26th, 2008 1:42 pm ET

I watched the inerview on CNN this morning, and it left me flabbergasted!!!! When Roberts spelled out examples exposing the lie about Obama having no record of working in a bi-partisan maner, Romney quickly dismissed this info by stating that these were liberal issues. Non-proliferation???....the very foundation of the illegal invasion and overthrow of the government f Iraq...this is a liberal agenda. Come on Mit.

PUMA PAC people I hope that you are happy with your choise in this election. Hillary will not be voting with you this time. You all look so stupid in the eyes of all the world that I miss you guys on here sometimes. Your leader was on tv and he sounded about as stupid as you all do. Vote Mcsame what a shame. Give up and stop kicking against that stone and come on back home people. Help save our kids from McWAR. He loves the sound of body counts on the news every day. Don't be like him. Stand up to him. It's time to move on and put our house back in order. We must ALL stand behind Obama and change what is going on in Washington.

can we just end the debate and recognize that republicans are the dumbest people alive?

DB   June 26th, 2008 1:35 pm ET

The republicans are already getting desperate as they have resorted to the Kitchen sink strategy! Unfoturnately this kind of strategy on works on low information voters as we saw in the democratic primaries. The Obama campaign has plenty of time exhibit Barack's true character. It does make things a lot easier when the Republicans look like idiots.

Annette   June 26th, 2008 1:35 pm ET

John,

He has no clue what he is talking about. Which by the way, is why he is not the presumptive nominee. This guy is all money with no substance.

Jackie   June 26th, 2008 1:34 pm ET

Romney is out of the race. He should stop sticking his foot in his mouth. Proliferation is a liberal issue? When did the conservatives decide they were in support of nuclear expansion?

I love the way Republicans throw the word 'liberal' around like it's an obscenity.

Casey in CA.   June 26th, 2008 1:34 pm ET

McCain and Romney deserve each other – both are full of themselves and puppets for the Bush/Rove Regime.

patti   June 26th, 2008 1:32 pm ET

Thank you John Roberts for doing your homework and reporting the facts of the story after the initial comments were made, proving again that the media can do it's job, serving the need for correct information, without taking sides. It's not the reporter's fault if erroneous information is being put out there by one side or the other.

Drill Sgt Moss   June 26th, 2008 1:32 pm ET

Don't expect Romney to make sense, EVER

Good job, John- CNN needs more people to keep these idiots in check and not let them spew their talking points ad nauseam

The Surly Scholar   June 26th, 2008 1:32 pm ET

Of course, Mitt. Nothing smacks of elitist latte liberalism like trying to protect the human race from nuclear annihilation. You just go right on thinking that.

saga for Obama   June 26th, 2008 1:29 pm ET

please watch this interview, we are witnessing the desperation of the Republican party, those who are the Rich white men clinging to power and greed at the expense of the American people. they will lie cheat and steal to hold on to their God...Money and Power. Romney clearly is sticking to the Republican script of lies, half truths and fear....
well mr Romney, we have seen this movie, now America is choosing to write a new script.
we will not how to the Lies of the republican party any more, we will not submit to the fear tactics you try to envelope us with. America was built on the courage of her people and this administration has caused us shame, we are seeing through Romney , Black and a host of the rich white men who support the millionaire Senator McCain that if McCain gets into office it will be business as usual.
Obama 08

Jamaal Kansas   June 26th, 2008 1:29 pm ET

These Republicans are Something Else they try there dirty tactics and Fear mongering and they start to believe there own stuff they are pretty funny

June Ankenney   June 26th, 2008 1:28 pm ET

Okay, we get it, Roberts: you want us to vote for Obama. No way!!!

charles   June 26th, 2008 1:28 pm ET

no one cares wat romney says. no one listens coz we know wat he says makes no sense.not that wat mcCain says makes any sense either.

Concerned INDEPENDENT CT voter   June 26th, 2008 1:26 pm ET

ok... MITT?

Lets just be 5th graders and cry & scream & disagree with any & everything the other camp says...

This counrty is run by "yes-men" I swear!!! DEM are not excluded... However i see more consistency w/Obama

Debra Austin, Texas   June 26th, 2008 1:26 pm ET

Now the Rethuglicans are just making me laugh. Soon, they'll be claiming the Bill of Rights is a liberal cause. OH! They already do, EXCEPT when it means they can 'git sum mo guns'! What complete brain drainers.

Dem 08   June 26th, 2008 1:26 pm ET

All say WOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Thanks Robert. we are going to see a lot of wild cards thrown out there.

Gorbashov   June 26th, 2008 1:26 pm ET

Oh yeah.....................you........................you.................liberal.................there, now what do you have to say?

Is this all these clowns got?

If this is their A Team this is going to be easier then most had thought!

What a moron....................not to be confused with mormon.

fighting the smears   June 26th, 2008 1:25 pm ET

gas mileage is a liberal issue? I hope you people who are actually considering voting for mcCain realize that the GOP does not care about your pain at the pump.

Bishop   June 26th, 2008 1:25 pm ET

Well THIS guy sounds worst than McCain. NO wonder he LOST!!!

Jamaal Kansas   June 26th, 2008 1:25 pm ET

That is the reason why is not out campaigning right now he is a liar and the Republicans could not even trust him he is irrelvant to the situation at hand and he is just trying to win brownie points from Old McShame and then he might get the VP spot. This is a Perfect Example why no one Trust the Republicans

Nicole in NE   June 26th, 2008 1:24 pm ET

Yes everyone LET"S NUKE UP and Global Warming is not real!

haha, I don't think Mitt's going to be top choice for VP now! : )

GO AWAY!!!!   June 26th, 2008 1:24 pm ET

Romney ..........shot back, saying that “Actually, on both cases, you’re talking about two liberal positions, non-proliferation as well as the gasoline mileage."YOU know where he's saying it..............AT HOME !!!!

unions are not stupid   June 26th, 2008 1:24 pm ET

It is funny now there Lieberman has fallen under such close scrutiny for snaking around Washington and changing position like the wind as well as party I might add. Now it seems they are using Mitt Romney as there lie spreading attack dog! Problem is there is a reason that his numbers kept dropping when he would go campaign. Why? He had a problem with the truth and he kept getting called on it even by other republicans! what a joke!

Raymond Duke   June 26th, 2008 1:23 pm ET

It does not suprise me with your take on this . I use to watch you of the morning on cnn. I quite after giving you a long period to report the news without your liberal stance for Obama. Apparently whatever country you came from and got your citizenship here was very liberal. All anybody has got to do is go on the proper website and they can get the real deal on Obama's bills and reaching across the aisle. He is great signing on to peoples bill that has already been wrote and then trying to claim credit for them. Do the news and not your bais slants and someday you may actually be appreciated by the american people.

Jeff D, South Bend, IN   June 26th, 2008 1:23 pm ET

Wolf, come on – Romney is barely a step and a half above Bush on the stupid-meter. What did you expect?

Anonymous   June 26th, 2008 1:22 pm ET

I didn't see this interview, but did Roberts question Romney about his statement? Ask him to expound? Call him on such a stupid remark? If he did then I'm impressed, but somehow I doubt it.

Also, taking Romney's statements as truth, wouldn't the fact that Obama worked with Republicans on a "liberal" issue mean that he works that much better across the aisle? Or did the fact that Romney completely reversed himself within one sentence go unnoticed?

"He has never worked in a bi-partisan group."

"Well, what about these?"

"He worked on those but they're liberal."

Romney makes all other empty suits look positively full. He's Dubya with better hair.

noMcBush, cambridge, MA   June 26th, 2008 1:21 pm ET

Brilliant. Now non-nuclear-proliferation and national security are "liberal" issues, so what do Repubs run on? Anti-national-security?

Bye bye VP for Mitt, not that it would matter anyway....

Kaye - Jacksonville FL   June 26th, 2008 1:19 pm ET

Good grief! First of all, who cares what Romney thinks about anything? Second, his comments are as looney as anything coming out of McCain's mouth (and Rove's and every other Repub trying to get some traction in this campaign)....

The republican campaign may end up more entertaining than anything I can find on Comedy Central....stay tuned.

independent   June 26th, 2008 1:19 pm ET

mitt and john are dolts.they just dont get it.noone believes a word that comes out of those two's mouths.the republican party sure didnt have much to chose from ,this year.after all the bs they try to force down our throats,i'll be surprised if they dont have to disband that party after this election.

Joe Utha   June 26th, 2008 1:19 pm ET

this guy needs some educaion on economy and war in Iraq. McBush his buddy is flip flop and his dumb. how are we solving our problems?

Here, I'll hook you up, LOL!!!

Franky   June 26th, 2008 1:17 pm ET

No offense to Mitt but wasn't he the one stealing my boy's "liberal ideas?" No offense to him but a conservative doesn't "change" his convictions.....if you know what I mean.

Chris   June 26th, 2008 1:17 pm ET

Who cares... we're moving in the wrong direction and McCain
1. Represents 25+ yrs of that direction
2. The Bush direction

I'd vote Mickey Mouse in b4 voting for McSame

John in Ohio   June 26th, 2008 1:17 pm ET

The Republican Party is going to be hilariously fractured and schizophrenic this year. The ad McCain is running in Ohio makes no mention at all of his position in the Republican party, and instead talks about how he stood up to Bush on environmental issues and how much of an environmentalist he is. Of course, they don't mention his actual voting record, but the ad does mention all the "plans" he says he has for improving the environment.

Not buying it.

Then you have moron clowns like Romney claiming nuclear non-proliferation is a liberal issue, and you have a Republican Senator in Oregon trying to use a complimentary statement of him from Obama in a campaign ad, and it all adds up to hilarity.

Watching the Republicans it is clear that this will be the silliest of silly seasons in recent memory. Even better then Bill Clinton vs Bob "Viagra" Dole in 1996.

Eric in New Mexico   June 26th, 2008 1:16 pm ET

VERY WEAK...Try again McCain Campaign!

Bob Indianapolis, IN   June 26th, 2008 1:12 pm ET

Romney is one of those politicians that looks like a game show host. No matter how much invectice he spouts, this much is certain: with regards to the bloated, rotting corpse that is the Republican Party, GAME OVER!

paula   June 26th, 2008 12:39 pm ET

That's funny. You have Mitt saying that nonproliferation is a liberal issue, and you have other McCain backers making asinine comments about how another terror attack on US soil would help his campaign. Spooky!

proud army and navy mom   June 26th, 2008 12:39 pm ET

mitt will do or say anything to be mcbush's VP.
he is so fake that it is pathetic.

I have my problems with Hillary's money management, but at least she's better than romney, who wasted milions of his own money to lose the nomination.....he should have loaned it to his campaign like hillary did, but i guess he got millions to throw away. talking about out of touch. this man is scary rich.

Nova from NV   June 26th, 2008 12:39 pm ET

Let's look at the evidents of such claims: When there is a controversial issue facing our nation, looks like McCain is usually in the news headlining a bi-partisan group to resolve the issues. Where's Obama? He is out voting along the party lines keeping the partisan bickering. The evidence strongly shows MCCain as a maverick and a great leader. As for Obama, just a typical partisan senator.

People let's judge the candidate for the color of their content and not the color of their skin please.

WE NEED THE TRUTH   June 26th, 2008 12:39 pm ET

Notice the spin on this – I mean we have two important issues here and even though democrats and republicans worked together on this....it's being spinned as liberal positions.

GIVE ME A BREAK!!!!!!!!!

The Repubs are pulling out all the stops to fight the person who should be our next President........Barack Obama!

Nikki, Florida   June 26th, 2008 12:39 pm ET

I thought improving gas mileage to lower gas costs was an American issue, not a liberal issue. Not to mention, we're not all rich like Mitt Romney and not all of us can afford $5/gal. gas.

Justin (ny)   June 26th, 2008 12:38 pm ET

Are you really surprised that the GOP would stoop to such a low level of attack? Based on lies? Because I'm not.

They will say and do ANYthing they can to manipulate the public to their side. They can try as much as they want, but its not going to work. Not this time.

Hope will triumph over fear and manipulation......finally!!

The Wizard   June 26th, 2008 12:38 pm ET

Romney is a pansy for McBush. Pay no attention to the man behind the curtain–seriously.

jay miller   June 26th, 2008 12:37 pm ET

What a foolish man Romney sounds like. He uses the "L" word like so many Republicans do as a curse word To make things worse, his followers will believe it without really listening to what he says..I'm sure if there is a follow-up, he'll say it was taken out of context, and that's not what he really means.

Angus McDugan   June 26th, 2008 12:37 pm ET

Of course he does. He dropped his pastor and church of 20+ years like a rock once they became an issue. This man stands for nothing. He states that he wil change the way things are done in Washington, but he does not provide a plan. How cowardly. I am for mom and apple pie, but what the heck does that mean? Obama: You don't know jack about me, but I am for positive change. Wow!

CP-Texas   June 26th, 2008 12:37 pm ET

They will say anything, contradict themselves, yada, yada, yada.....Idiot. Does not know of what he speaks, no facts, just attack, attack, attack. Makes him look ignorant...go comb your hair.

tpsmith   June 26th, 2008 12:37 pm ET

Romney is a complete dufus. Why is the media wasting time on him?

Mike in Columbus   June 26th, 2008 12:37 pm ET

Guilty as charged!

I fall into the liberal group who wants more fuel- efficiency and less nuclear weapons.

How Un-American of me.

Mike   June 26th, 2008 12:36 pm ET

As far as Bush is concerned, he promised to be a Reagan Rebulican and he instead turned into a Democrat. He was far more a Republican when he was Govenor of Texas than he is today as President.

duh   June 26th, 2008 12:36 pm ET

Obviosly George W. Bush is the EPITOME of peace. What more peace loving and making President of the US has there EVER BEEN? none!

We love President Bush. Long may peace loving Bush Rule!!!

Dan, TX   June 26th, 2008 12:36 pm ET

This makes me want to vote for McCain and then move to Canada just to watch the train wreck that would be the USA.

Kiah   June 26th, 2008 12:35 pm ET

Good ole Mitt. Impressing us with his vast political knowledge as always.

Felice Judkins   June 26th, 2008 12:35 pm ET

Just goes to show you that the folks in GOP would rather use the same old tagline of "liberal" and not come up with ideas that are going to benefit us as a nation. The problem with GOP is that they attack personally because they don't have any ideas or policies to move us forward. That is why the GOP has become a caricature of it's former self. they have no substance, no agenda and no vision. It amazes me how they walk in lock step and repeat talking points that may actually be flat out wrong. And these are the folks that want to get back in the White House; OMG what a scary thought!

Mark Webb   June 26th, 2008 12:35 pm ET

This guy is simply stupid!!! Why continue listening to him?
Anyway he lost Rebub primaries. Does he hope to get on McFossil ticket with such imbecilities? Not so sure.

IAMWMD   June 26th, 2008 12:35 pm ET

If working across the isles to increase fuel efficiency is considered to liberal by the rightwingers, I guess it would take an act of God to get the Republicans to help everyday Americans instead of big business.

John   June 26th, 2008 12:35 pm ET

The republican game is getting sickening nowadays. All they do is paint oponents as something or the other without facing the issues at hand. From Carl Rove(who i think shouldn't show his face anywhere for the Valerie Plame incident) saying Obama is proud and arrogant to Romney saying what ever pleases him. It seems like their antics never change.

Brendan H., San Antonio, TX   June 26th, 2008 12:35 pm ET

Perhaps Romney's "Holy Underwear" was in a bundle?!

Rob K   June 26th, 2008 12:35 pm ET

So....the conservative position would be in FAVOR of nuclear proliferation?? Conservatives would like to see as many countries as possible with nuclear weapons? Well, in that case, Governor, fine. I'll concede the point. "Liberal" is now security-minded folks without suicidal tendencies.

I'm glad we could all be set straight by an empty suit containing no heart, and an empty haircut containing no brain.

jen   June 26th, 2008 12:35 pm ET

McCain supporters...."The gift that just keeps giving".

@everyamericans   June 26th, 2008 12:34 pm ET

the republicans dont have a clue about the economy; so they throw the word 'liberal' around to scare american voters...even Romney, the soooooore Loser, can't speak on the issues other than calling names!

Not This Time!!!!!

Obama All The Waaaaaaaaaaaay To The White House!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Lisa   June 26th, 2008 12:34 pm ET

I ask Barack to borrow $30 to pay for gas, and he has yet to respond. That's rude considering $30 is not a lot of money.

NYC   June 26th, 2008 12:33 pm ET

ROMNEY IS A RICH FOOL AND A WANNA BE. THIS JOKER HATES BECAUSE HE RAN A SORRY CAMPAIGN.

Neutral   June 26th, 2008 12:33 pm ET

Romney needs as much help as McCain in his thoughtless outbursts. he is trying hard to be VP but it will not help the Republicans to have two people who don't seem to think before they speak.

Jason   June 26th, 2008 12:33 pm ET

Romney only said that because he is, ahem, "A politician who puts party and self-interest above the needs of the nation." And above common sense, it would appear.

Angie   June 26th, 2008 12:33 pm ET

The republicans are desparate. Throwing mud on wall to see what sticks. It's not going to work this time. OBAMA 08.

Jim   June 26th, 2008 12:32 pm ET

Wow this guy is great, John Roberts, I have to find out when he's on I'm gonna start watching his show! A man with a head on his shoulder, good to see!

JPK   June 26th, 2008 12:32 pm ET

Rom who? The dude is just a looser.

Saul Alinsky   June 26th, 2008 12:32 pm ET

Is ACORN the organization Barack Obama worked out of as a community organizer in Chicago conservative?

USAF Staff Sergeant   June 26th, 2008 12:31 pm ET

Romney is a fool. He tries to hit Obama on lack of experience, but he has even less.

Romney, along with all McCain supporters, just echo whatever junk McCain is trying to throw at Obama at any given time.

Braden   June 26th, 2008 12:31 pm ET

haha... umm OK Mitt. I guess proliferating nuclear weapons to unstable regimes and continuing to drive 12 mpg rated cars would be the conservative stance then? They never cease to amaze me.... typical Republican caught in a lie, so they just throw the word 'liberal' out there.

Down with Obama   June 26th, 2008 12:31 pm ET

I think they paint a pretty clear picture of Obama....me, me, me!!!!!!

CW4Barak   June 26th, 2008 12:31 pm ET

They are drowning and grasping....they realize their method to win the election, damage Obama's reputation and feed the American people more fear about terrorism, is not working....so they are grasping...the ship is going down!

Amy Kathleen   June 26th, 2008 12:31 pm ET

Doubt we've seen the last of it. A favorite tactic, Clintons used it as well, say anything in a decisive manner, regardless of how accurate, and your followers won't check it, and will then parrot it so much people will start to believe it was always true.

ANGIE   June 26th, 2008 12:30 pm ET

shut up romney you make my skin crawl go back to your hole you wanted to take elderly peoples social security away you slimy snake!!!

Loretta from California   June 26th, 2008 12:30 pm ET

Wolf, It doesn't strike me as odd. It's more flip-flopping on the GOP side. It's what they do best while trying to get elected. But we simply will not be fooled this time. NOT THIS TIME!!!

DEMOCRATS UNITE!!!

John McCain-McFlip-Flop-McBush is no "maverick"   June 26th, 2008 12:29 pm ET

Keeping talking it up Romney! You know nothing about "nucular" proliferation which is why you aren't the nominee. Stick to what you know (i.e., nothing).

Ryan   June 26th, 2008 12:28 pm ET

Mitt Romney's a tool.. but I'm glad to see he now considers national security as a liberal issue.. haha

Ian   June 26th, 2008 12:27 pm ET

Mitt Romney is a tool. If he's so for the war in Iraq why hasn't one single one of his sons gone over there to fight?

JIM...TX   June 26th, 2008 12:26 pm ET

More DUMBING up by the 2 biggest losers in that party :)
