Mitt v. Hillary would mean another President Clinton.
If he wants to go against Hilary, he’ll need to change parties. He’s got no realistic shot at the nomination unless Guiliani steps down.
This joker not only has the cart well before the horse, the cart has no wheels and the horse isn’t harnessed up.
Poor Mitt Romney hasn’t a chance at the nomination. He is about to be as crushed and outdistanced as the hapless John McCain.
LOL! Dueling RINOs!
Yes, sad to say, that would be true. But for the life of me, I can’t figure out how someone figures Mitt is ahead in this thing. Did I miss like a bunch of polls?
Besides, isn’t Romney in third place behind a guy who hasn’t even officially entered the race?
“Too close to call are Alabama, Indiana and South Carolina.”
Ron Paul could probably beat Hillary in Alabama.
More likely I think he will be kicking Evan Bayh or Mark Warner’s arse in the VP debate. Fred Thompson will handily dispatch Hillary.
Romney is the only Republican with a realistic chance of beating Hillary in 2008.
Then I guess it looks like we get a democrat in the White House. Bummer.
Just see post #10. Some, (even here), don’t think the media would rip him up when the time comes or that he doesn’t have enough skeletons in the closet to let them succeed.
What do you base that on? His support for an assault weapons ban? Do you count on his liberal past to attract the RAT voters like Ghouliani is planning on?
Sorry, I can’t see how he could win.
“Too close to call are Alabama, Indiana and South Carolina.”
With Hillary running? This gent is smoking something illegal.
“loins and sinews”?
Just as I have always suspected, Hillary is a Freeper.
It's the magic underwear.
That’s a snide mormon slur.
You can’t win the Presidency by just appealing to the staunchest conservatives in your own party. You have to be able to appeal to both moderates *and* your own party.
Mitt is the only candidate who both: (a) appeals to moderates (as evidenced by his ability to win in Massachusetts), and (b) has a history of governing with policies that are in alignment with conservatives.
If you ignore for one minute the things coming out of the mouths of each of the top three *declared* candidates, and instead focus on how they actually governed while holding elected office, then Mitt is easily the most conservative of the bunch (Giuliani, McCain, and Romney).
BTW—Mitt *said* the right things to get elected Governor in Massachusetts, but governed in a manner that really pizzed off the social liberals up in that state. To me, that speaks volumes about his conservative credentials.
