Talking Politics - Mitt 2012!

Mitt 2012!


Mitt Romney could have fought on, trying to deny John McCain a majority going into the convention and then convincing Mike Huckabee's delegates to go with him because McCain hates God. But perhaps he's learned an important lesson about the Republican Party: they always nominate someone who has proven his loyalty to the party.

That's why I predicted from the start, and never stopped predicting, that they would nominate McCain. Sure, they would take a look at more interesting, exciting, and ideologically pure candidates, but McCain was the only one in the field who had really proven his loyalty to the GOP -- by supporting candidates nationally, and of course by turning around and supporting GW Bush in 2000.

Romney, by bowing out, supporting McCain, and bashing the Dems (who apparently intend to surrender to the terrorists as soon as they enter office), has put himself in excellent position for the '12 nomination (assuming McCain loses this November).

Well that's definately ONE way to put it!

Here's another: Mitt Romney has spent approx $1.16 million per delegate, a rate that would have cost him $1.33 billion to win the nomination!

well now, it seems mitt has good judgement on ONE thing...save some of that money for the kids and their kids and there kids. that spending thing combined with a twisted ego made for an odd circus.
bye,mitt. go home a listen to bob dylan and find yourself...particularly in that verse,"...you'd know what a drag it is to see you."

Just for the record, I also think Romney was a fraud.

However, when I heard Mitt had withdrawn, my first thought was, "Whew, now the Phoenix can end its jihad and 'Talking Politics is once again readable." However, after seeing the headline of this article I fear we will be reading for the next four years the Phoenix's attempts to wreck Romney's 2012 presidential run. Aye Caramba!!
