It looks like after spending 30 million dollars and year after year you are campaigning for an elected position you can get some traction and Mitts is getting traction. If you add in the fact that all other candidates have given up on debating your record, you are going to rise in the polls. Newt,Perry,Santorum,Paul made it pretty clear last night they want Republicans to send their donations to Romney because they don't have what it takes to go after Romney anymore. Newt,Paul,Santorum and Huntsman all endorsed Romney last night.
What with rabid liberals foaming slander about Santorum and RINO McCain endorsing Romney, I choose Santorum by association.
Ha! You used "foaming" and "Santorum" in the same sentence, you braindead right-wing knuckle-dragger! Oh, by the way, it's not slander when a candidate is called out on their actions or quotes. Da$n you right-wingers are stupid, it's painful to witness.
Finally
Tired voting for non conservatives for republican tickets, this year is conservative’s year we have to make sure we are electing true conservative
god help us all, if any of these republicans get into office. you think it's bad now, it is only going to get worse.
Romney critized Jon Huntsman for serving his country under Obama administration,as ambassador to China, what's wrong with that. Romney is a real moron, I can believe somebody got to vote for that idiot.
I really can't believe this is all you got. Good luck Repubs, you are going to need it.
My Daddy told me that when people use the word "Truth" in their posts, it is because they are liars.
Romney LIED again – he stated he did NOT see the ad
Then he stated EACH POINT of the ad – damn “gotcha,” so sad
Then he told the TRUTH about points in the ad that were LIES
And his "buddies" and "millionaires" are behind it – Hmm, his ties!
Then it's the "bean bag" comment – Bring it On!!
Romney is NOT what he is shaping out to be
His followers knows little about him – really!!
Especially NH – Is it all they are looking for is a neighbor to win?
NOT really examining how much "flip-flopping" LYING" comes from MITTens?
David Gregory did a great job today... Last night's debate was very boring and had NO SUBSTANCE and it was like hearing the same old stuff!!!
Obama 2012!
When $100 million has to be spent in the primaries to convince republicans that Mittens is the best candidate, the response is "Houston, we have a problem."
GOP idiots are Thugs of USA! o.k, True, true, and true.....
Its fact that romneys bain capital is nothing more than a glorified payday loan business. He also states that only rich people should be president.he said if you need the job of pres.to pay your mortgage then you need not run. What a double doucebag
It is the truth that repubelicans love their country more than americans or money.how's that wire pallidan ha ha
ROMNEY EXPOSED January 8, 2012. It's about time. LOVED IT.
I'm from mass and I think dip romney was the worst gov we ever had. When he says he balance the budget every year he's lying.he left a budget defict of 1 billion dallars for the next gov and where are the disk drives you stole which are public property???
Cannot wait for the real debates if flip-flop Romney is somehow the nominee (Huntsman is the better choice).
Mitt will not be able to get away with his constant lies, and Romney's neo-Con agenda will be exposed in front of independents.
