"Mitt Romney is close to finishing off his rivals for the Republican presidential nomination"

The hell he is.

[Lazlo in PA]

I see the Romney boys at the Weakly Substandard are trying to sell the inevitability argument again. Maybe it was just me, but this “overwhelming” win tonight was by 11 points in a contest Milt spent a TON of money in. He also couldn’t break 50% again. All Romney had to sell anyone was that the other guy sucks.

If I was Fred “The Beadle” Barnse, I would be less concerned with Milts VP choices and more with why this guy is still such a total dud.

[RIghtwardHo]

He could run with Moses and I wouldn’t vote for him.

No Romney, no way.

And save the “inevitability” BS.

Romney is going to need some very conservative cabinet picks to really convince anybody that he’s even remotely conservative.

[Thunder90]

Also not happening. Ryan does not appeal to the moderates, and that’s what the GOP-E will be gunning for during this election. They will go for Susana Martinez or someone else like her (It will be a moderate woman who is a minority).

[Keyes2000mt]

Personally, should Romney end up the nominee, I hope he chooses some dullard. An empty suit with a somewhat right leaning record. He promised it’ll be someone pro-life. So maybe it could be Rob Portman. That way, if the ticket goes down in flames, we won’t have lost a rising national star.

[Washi]

I can’t think of any running mate that Romney could name (and that would agree to run with him) that would cause me to change my mind and actually vote for him.

[garandgal]

If anything could make me even less excited to vote for Romney in the general, this would do it!

Paul Ryan has NO resume to recommend him, he has spent his entire life in politics; and his campaign contributions would be cannon fodder. He is a DISASTER on health care; by the time the Dems/Media get done using his own words against him, Obamacare will have 80% support.

Old political adage...candidates seldom quit the race, they just run out of money and then their opponents can whip them mercilessly in ads.

According to a report filed Tuesday night with the Federal Election Commission, at the end of February:

Rick Santorum had $2.6 million in the bank and $900,000 debt.
Newt Gingrich $1.54 million in the bank and $1.55 million debt.
Mitt Romney had $7.3 million in the bank and no debt.
Ron Paul had about $1.4 million in the bank, no debt.

[Nik Naym]

If they resurrected Thomas Jefferson to run with Romney I STILL wouldn’t vote for the bastard.

No Romney.

Not on any ticket.

Not for any office.

Not ever.

Why won't he ask Santorum? Inquiring minds... ( I won't vote for Mitt; if Mitt gives away $$$-free cars and college loans— like I said months ago; whatever sell out signs up with Romneycare Mittens; to me is dead. Not a conservative in my eyes could do that. This party loyalty — is done and over with. Let them find a vote getter for Mitt. As soon as it begins, we all should say no. If the repubs take the house and senate, Obummer can't do much like Clinton's last 4 years. There is already polls out saying the repubs may not overtake Obama if the gas prices come down/the jobs go up and don't you think Obama won't turn things around) So, whatever little window dressing GOP-e gets for Mitt, is a sell-out-a spade is a spade.

[hosepipe]

Romney is the new Juan Mclaim...
Pity is most republicans cannot remember 2008..

[Caipirabob]

Romney-Ryan?

As long as there's no romney. Yeah, I could see it happening.

[Georgia Girl 2]

Well I see the Weekly Sub Standard is still shilling for Mitt. They should have to register as an official lobbyist group.
