Mitt Romney’s 1992 Democratic Primary vote for Paul Tsongas — a technocratic modernizer and reformer, but very much a Democrat — raised some Republican eyebrows last week.
What hasn’t been mentioned: Romney’s vote formally enrolled him in the Democratic Party. more…
For anyone who either believes in leprechauns or that Mitt Romney is a conservative this should be of significance, especially since his minions haunted this site making much of the fact that Rick Perry was a Democrat before 1989.
The speculation is that Romney had originally intended to challenge Ted Kennedy in the Democrat primary then decided to run as a Republican. This makes his 1994 campaign strategy much more understandable.
According to a Romney campaign spokesperson, Romney “switched back.” One doesn’t know how Romney managed to “switch back.” According to the town clerk, Romney became an Republican only on October 19, 1993. The implication is that Romney had either never voted between his registration as a independent in 1979 and 1992 (so his vote in 1992 automatically enrolled him as a Democrat) or that he was a regular Democrat voters in those earlier elections and changed to Republican to run for Senate.
Now I’m off to National Review and Jennifer Rubin’s precious little blog to read some more on how conservative Willard Romney is.
No difference? Are you on pot?
you holding your breath?
Right on bro.
I'll not vote for Mitt Romney EVER! Nor will I vote in the general election for anyone who endorses Romney prior to him securing the nomination.
I’ve issued these challenges two, or three times now. They don’t respond.
Romney isn’t even a RINO...he’s a Bloomberg Republican.
Who's buried in Grant's tomb? uhhh! I dunno, uhh jefferson?
Good luck with future surveys, keep at it, lol.
Yes...personally, to paraphrase an oft-quoted politician, "He's an unusually skilled liar."
Politically, I think we'd be looking at the second tern of GHWB.
I remember people like you in '08. Gave us Barry.
I will NEVER get in line w/ Romney. There is NO DIFFERENCE between Hussein & Romney.
Yes there is. One is white, the other half black.
neither are worth a turd though.
You’re a class act, aren’t you? Willard would be proud of you.
No, I won’t stay home. On primary day here in VA, I will vote for Ron Paul the nutcase in an effort to deny Romney my state’s delegates. If Romney somehow becomes the nominee, I will write in Rick Perry and vote for the rest of the ticket. I cannot and will not vote for a man who has the blood of innocents on his hands and who panders to homosexuals. I will not vote for such a despicable, corrupt, vicious, rotten, malicious, calculating puffed-up phony.
But if you like that sort of thing, go for it.
I am not a mitt supporter.
But I have 1 thing he did as governor to support freedom.
He didn’t run for reelection!
I will not vote ROMNEY ever. Better to keep the same and only 4 yrs, than to risk 8 yrs with Romney.
I would put my X on 3rd party RON PAUL (yikes, can't believe I had to say that) before ROMNEY.
P.S. DON'T CALL US FOOLS. We have had to SETTLE in the past, but we are Fools no longer. No Romney, No Way.
LLS
No pot. I’m just tired of the “lesser of two evils” BS.
Speaking of BS, if you’re peddling Romney, you should take that elsewhere.
1. Shares of Aquanet stock will go up.
2. Prices of coffee and booze will drop as demand drops as everyone decides to follow Romney's Mormon rules of no caffeine or alcohol.
3. As government is screwing us, we might as well throw out the definition of marriage so we can marry government.
4. As government is screwing everyone else and us, might as well have socialized healthcare so the government can pay for the SDTs it gives us.
5. Forget moon bases, we all get our own planets we can be gods on.
I'm sure someone else can come up with the other five.
