I don’t see Mitt being electable, especially in the south.

The only people in the south who wont vote for Mitt because of his faith are simply bigots. Thankfully, the rest of America, not so much.

I run a business…does that mean I’m more qualified than Hillary Clinton to run the United States?

The answer to your question is an emphatic “yes”

It’ll be an “internship” as Mitt likes to say for all of them…Mitt included.

And by the way…I’ll be supporting whoever the Republican candidate is.

I am far more concerned with electability because Hillary scares the crap outta me.

Hill is unqualified for that job as well.

Hollowpoint, give it a rest. Your anti-Mitt screed is getting tiresome.

THOU SHALT NOT TAKE THE NAME OF YOUR LORD MITT IN VAIN.

Of course, the first thing I thought of when I saw the post is that Hollowpoint would be here. I can’t think of anyone on the Right who wouldn’t agree with this ad except Hollowpoint. After all, it shows off one of Mitt’s strenghts… and he(or is it she?) can’t have that!

Bashing Hillary, promoting yourself at the same time in a very effective manner (without taking down any other Republican)…. what’s not to like?

Hollowpoint, give it a rest. Your anti-Mitt screed is getting tiresome.

Great ad. I don’t know why Romney fails the smell test so much.

He was once named one of the top 10 RINOs, but changed numerous positions almost overnight prior to his campaign in order to sound more conservative. He also comes off as a finger-to-the-wind, focus group driven slickster who’ll say anything to get votes without having a core political philosophy, so yeah- he just don’t smell right. (though it could be all the hair gel)

He simply inspires little confidence that his current positions (which often conflict with his previous but recent ones) would remain current posistions if elected.

There’s also his support for certain big government programs (increased foreign aid, ag subsidies, corporate welfare for the auto industry, medicare reform, etc) which induce skepticism about his claims to be a fiscal conservative. He also supports increased federal gun control, which doesn’t do much to win over 2nd amendment enthusiasts.

I almost hate to bring this up because forming an association in any way with Olberman can only hurt the good man Mitt, but, is it possible that Mitt and KO are the same person? My goodness, watching that commercial all I could think was that he looks exactly like KO minus the glasses. Perhaps it is like a Superman/Clark Kent senario? With the glasses he’s a pink panty wearing whiney BDS spewing liberal, without the glasses he becomes a Hillary Clinton attacking/Governer/Business Tycoon soon to be President of the Untied States. Has anybody ever seen the two in the same room at the same time?

Though I am a little leery that csdeven supports him so…maniacally.

“Her big answer on whether she would release the papers from her White House years was particularly troubling because she is running on her record as first lady as much as on her record as a senator,” he said. “How can people fully judge that record if the documents from those years remain locked away?”
