Mitt Romney And Self-Deportation

Romney was asked how he would reconcile his pledge that, as president, he wouldn’t order mass deportations of undocumented immigrants with his promise to crack down on illegal immigration.

No One Wants To Marry Mr. Electable

Filed in National by on January 22, 2012 3 Comments

Throughout this political season, the only thing Mitt Romney hasn’t flip-flopped on is his reason for his getting the nomination: Electability.

Yawn.

He is the guy that proposes to a woman and cites being a good provider as the main reason she should marry him. He then adds that he’s dependable and quickly points out how passion is over-rated and not a good foundation for a marriage. Now, all of this may be true, depending on who Mr. Electable is proposing, but for most people it just doesn’t cut it.

Filed in National by on January 20, 2012 20 Comments

Romney says “I’ll release [my tax returns] on April 15, and the reason is very simple: I want to beat Barack Obama. I don’t want to give the Democrats a nice little present of having multiple releases. We’re going to have one release.”

If you haven’t watched Newt Gingrich’s Super Pac Ad… watch it now. It is absolutely devastating. Ed Kilgore describes is as “one of the most devilishly effective attack communications I’ve personally ever seen–a heat-seeking missile aimed directly at the white orking class id.”

Before we get into the “I Like to fire people” statement allow me to point out that Romney is a bit of a gaffe machine. There’s the 10,000.00 bet. The “Corporations are people, my friend” comment.  The don’t run for office unless you’re rich beauty of a statement.  These gaffes have one thing in common; […]
