Mitt Romney 2012?
The Tusk ^ | 09/03/2009 | R Hargraves

Posted on 09/03/2009 8:55:03 AM PDT by KatyLoraleyVidales

All of you former Right Up Front readers know of my undying affection and unyielding loyalty to Mitt Romney. Indeed, he is my first choice for the nomination in 2012. Now it looks like the Stormin' Mormon may be testing the waters for an encore run at the GOP knod. Politico's Jonathan Martin has the details.

After a few stops in some early primary states and lavish fundraiser at a "trendy" Washington eatery, there are many reasons for any former Romney fan to be hopeful. And who better to go up against a now-obviously undisciplined current White House resident than the uber-disciplined, results oriented former businessman and governor?

Lucky for those of us squarely in the Mitt camp, it appears we're in good company. In March, he won the CPAC presidential preference straw poll for the third year in a row...

Then why is it costing Massachusetts millions in over runs.

You may want to review the reality not the original promotional brochure...

Harry Truman was a failure as a businessman and by nearly all accounts one of the best presidents of the 20th Century.

Too bad he was a liberal Democrat.

It would be nice if we actually got to pick our nominee this time.

Amen, Brother!

The MSM trolls trying to foist off leftists in drag onto us can pound sand.

All either clueless or worse.

Hmm... Interesting this particular n00b chose to smack us with this less-than-delightful turd on this particular occasion.

I sense that team Romney is in the beginnings of an offensive.

With Palin’s Facebook smack-down of Obamacare and the hard core reality of Romneycare along with his still unwavering support of his creation, Mitt's already non existent relevancy is now truing towards being a full blown joke...

Oh, he's been a full-blown joke now for a long time. I'm only sorry I didn't recognize that in 1994. I was 20 and still subscribed to that ignorant mindset about any Republican being better than any Democrat, not considering we had an invading army within (the only army Slick was ever with).

Not sure where you get your bullshit talking points from:

http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/1960820/posts

But we conservatives don’t appreciate lying liberal tactics like what you posted. The RomneyCare program is a fiscal disaster and no amount of sugar can make that pile of dung smell sweet.

As Jim Robinson has said in the past...if you want to back Romney you are on the wrong forum.

Thanks for the ping Rabs.

Wagglebee: Harry Truman was a failure as a businessman and by nearly all accounts one of the best presidents of the 20th Century.

Are you a conservative freeper or a liberal historian?

Truman was an unqualified (least qualified in recent history till Obama) product of a corrupt Kansas City political machine (another similarity to Obama) and an epic fail on domestic and foreign policy.

He was horrendously unpopular for most of his Presidency. "To err is Truman" was the saying. After his death haughty historians decided they liked him and suddenly he's "great".

Add in misplaced adulation for him fulfilling his minimum job requirement during WW2, the popular and foolish myth that democrats were "good and honorable" before the 60's and a lot of bizarre simpatico on the part of Bush and other prominent Republicans cause he was a "War President" (zippity do dah) and you a have a popular image that is in starker contrast with reality than perhaps any other President.

From a issues perceptive and from a popularity perspective he was crap. Communism exploded as the Soviets occupied and enslaved millions and he did nothing expect give billions of taxpayer dollars away to Western Europe and mismanage the Korean War.

As a typical union owned dem he vetoed the much needed Taft-Hartley act. Read his speeches on domestic policy, sounds exactly like Al Gore. Pure class warfare 'GOP wants to take the bottle of our your babies' mouth' crap.

It's a testament to how bad FDR, Johnson, Carter and Clinton (though in writing this I'm feeling maybe Clinton was as quite as harmful) were that he's not the worst modern President.

Perhaps this post qualifies as a tirade but I'm sick of the casual admiration some freepers have for this awful socialist President. If FR existed in the late 40's every thread would have been about how much Truman needed to take a long walk off a short pier. Some liberal eggheads decide he was great and people just swallow it.
