Recently in Mitt Romney Category

It became apparent fairly early in the evening last night that the Republicans were going to get thumped.  As state results began to march across the map, with major battleground states turning blue, and Tea Party candidates losing, Republican hopes waned.  Their plan simply didn't work.  The hundreds of millions of billionaires' money didn't work.  The politics of division didn't work.  The Tea Party revolution of 2010 failed. Despite almost unanimous prognostication that the race...

Buried in Mitt Romney's speech in Virginia yesterday in which he toned his criticism of President Obama over the consulate attack in Libya was this little tidbit:"Romney criticized Obama for reductions in defense spending and the potential deep cuts if the White House and Congress can't agree to a budget deal by the end of this year and sequestration ensues."Ever since FDR, we've had the capacity to be engaged in two conflicts at once," Romney...

Is it me, or has the cast of characters really changed in the GOP at the convention this year?  Also, what about the subjects that have been the keystones of Republican focus for over a decade?  Listening to the speeches last night, I was more struck by what is not being said and who is not present rather than who is there and what is being said. Who's missing?  Only former president George W. Bush,...

The Romney campaign has decided they aren't moving the needle far enough and fast enough with economic issues, plus they can't overcome the fact that people just don't like Mitt Romney, so it's time to pull out the old Republican tried and true--the president is near."Having survived a summer of attacks but still trailing the president narrowly in most national polls, Mr. Romney's campaign remains focused intently on the economy as the issue that can...

Mitt Romney thinks he made a funny with his "no one's ever asked to see my birth certificate" line in Michigan yesterday:"In an interview with CBS Evening News anchor Scott Pelley on Friday, Mitt Romney played down the remarks he made about President Obama's origins, arguing that they amounted to a joke and not a "swipe" at the president."No, no, not a swipe," Romney said. "I've said throughout the campaign and before, there's no question...

Fiction:Fact:But that won't stop Mendacious Mitt and his sidekick, Lyin' Ryan....

April:"With all the challenges the nation faces, this is not the time for President Obama's hide and seek campaign.... Unlike President Obama, you don't have to wait until after the election to find out what I believe in -- or what my plans are."Yesterday:"Advisers say the campaign has no plans to pivot from its previous view that diving into details during a general-election race would be suicidal.The Romney strategy is simple: Hammer away at Obama...

Has there ever been a more brazen, bald-faced, shameless, liar running for president than Mitt Romney? This guy makes Richard Nixon look like Abraham Lincoln. Yesterday in Ohio: "His [Obama's] campaign and his surrogates have made wild and reckless accusations that disgrace the office of the Presidency."This on the same day that the Romney campaign released yet another ad with the lie about President Obama ending work requirements for welfare, because you know (wink, wink)...

Rolls Royce?  Romney?  I dunno, just sayin'....
