It’s always somebody else’s fault with Romney, ain’t it.

If he gave a rip about the Constitution he would have vetoed the bill and let the chips fall where they may. It’s as simple as that.

Kinda like he did to Ted Kennedy? What's he gonna do, try and flank 'em on the Left again?

You are incredibly dishonest in your characterizations. 'Outflank Kennedy on the left????' You're just plain illogical. This is a campaign flyer listing Romney's positions on 24 issues - ALL to the right of Kennedy: Romney Never was a "Liberal" . . . No, not even close.

Stop misleading and distorting. You're doing everyone a disservice. It's a sign of bad character.

Mitt will do well enough with the base once they learn more about his background and business and family. There is a lot to like in him. He would govern more consistently conservative than GWB, IMHO.

Give me a break. The video is avaiable to everybody. They can easily see for themselves that Romney tried to out-Left Ted Kennedy.

"I believe that abortion should be safe and legal in this country. I have since the time that my mom took that position when she ran in 1970 as a US Senate candidate. I believe that since Roe v. Wade has been the law for 20 years we should sustain and support it."

Mitt is a great communicator.

He must be! In fact, he uses both sides of his mouth!

It's irrelevent. He had a sworn duty to uphold the Constitution. As usual, he failed in that duty.

“Were he to be the nominee the media would display his church as a wacky, polygamous cult. “

So what... Bush is *Methodist* fer crying out loud and they make him seem like a cult member for beign too overtly christian.

I’m not sure what you mean . I’m not LDS and it’s truly not a big deal to me that Mitt is LDS .

I can’t wait for that ! I love good debates and Mitt sure seems fiesty in a debate .

Back in ‘96, I was salivating at the thought of Buchanan debating Klinton . It was of course a dream, and regardless of where you stand on Buchanan , it would have been great to see Buchanan debate the slickster .

Mitt Romney on Gun Control.

Joining the NRA as part of setting up his Presidential run does not an RKBA supporter make. More like a John Effin Kerry style campaign flip-flop...

No Mitt. Never a gun grabber of any stripe. Ever. This is not negotiable.

2004. Massachewsh*ts Assault Weapon Ban. Ring a bell? Even a protest veto would have been better than blatant capitulation. Mitt is on record as SUPPORTING bans.

Joining the NRA last November, about when he started talking himself up for a Presidential run, does not a 2A supporter make.

Well just so you know, Mitt was the only candidate to attend the Shot Show this year , and was well recieved . The NSSF and the NRA appear to be quite comfortable with Romney .They of course have not endorsed anyone , but Mitt has made very good moves to show where he would preside on this issue .

It’s a very difficult proposition comparing what Mitt faced in Mass to the country as whole.
He actually pulled off pro-gun advancements in that bill . Would you rather he vetoed it , had it overidden and been stuck with no pro-gun provisions ?
The NRA backed that bill because it was as good as it was going to get , and Mitt pulled it off. Do you think a Dim would have done that ? No way ....

I have mixed feelings on Gun control!

I believe one of the reasons for the Second Amendment was to protect citizens from an over dominating government...

Bravo!

I also think gun nuts like you should NOT be allow to own a gun because you guys are too consumed and obessed about it and make it harder to keep and bear arms!

No idea what that means. But that’s not unusual with your posts...

I learned three lessons that day. The first is that my Dad really is pretty frugal. There isn't much that bothers him more than wasting money. The second is that my Dad honestly believes he can overcome any challenge with enough hard work and ingenuity. And third, I learned that my Dad cares for me enough to spend his day looking for an anchor in the Atlantic Ocean. He didn't care so much about finding the anchor as he did about teaching me the first two lessons – being wise with money and not letting anything stand in my way.

You know, that's really a great story about Mitt. It rings true as to his character and general outlook, very consistent with everything else the public knows about him.
