So far, the Pacific Research Institutes Sally Pipes reports, monthly premiums average $380, not $200, as Romney forecast. The program may cost taxpayers an extra $276.4 million this year, more than double its original $125.4 million estimated expense.That's why I posted this. I don't care for Mitt or Rudy for the primary.

Deroy’s second Pimp-My-RINO column in a row that bashes Mitt while trying to put a shine on Rudy. At the rate Deroy’s going with his blatant electioneering, he’s gonna be subject to McCain-Feingold restrictions.

Personal income advanced 18.2 percent during Romneys days, while it accelerated 49.9 percent during Giuliani time.Boy, talk about a stinker. Rudy was in office twice as long as Mitt, so a percentage comparision is absurd. And Mitt entered office as the country was coming out of a recession.

It seems like comparing apples and oranges. As far as I know, Mass has never sunk to the depths of Sodom and Gomorrah, though they had a big deficit which Romney worked to close. The trouble with comparisons is that if someone does a good job on something, his successor will not have room to do the same. Bill Clinton claims 22m new jobs. After that, there have not been 22m people looking for work.

To: dirtboy
Myth? At least Mitt took on the toughest issues in the most liberal state in the nations and grappled with them long and hard.
How does FRed compare? FRed's pathetic and underwhelming record of executive accomplishment doesn't even rise to the level of farce. Apart from the gang rape of the first amendment that he perpetrated with his mentor and best FRiend John McCain, you could print all of FRed's record of significant accomplishments on the back of a postage stamp.

Some of Mitt’s supporters seem to often times betray
A similar fixation like the Picture of Dorian Gray.
Their candidate is beautiful with strong, ambitious goals,
Supported by an ugliness of gross, vindictive souls.
Sexual in nature are their mean, rapacious hits,
Which only makes one wonder ~ are those sentiments of Mitt’s?

Apple to Apple comparisons are not so easy to do. But at least this attack on Romney comes from a conservative source. Attacks on Romney from the Boston Globe and the New York Times, as I’ve often seen on FreeRepublic, have their own credibility problems. It’s kind of like when George Stephenopolous or James Carville give “advice” to Republicans on “what they should do to win.”
When it comes to endorsements that mean anything to me, there is Ann Coulter. She liked Romney, then later voiced preference to Hunter. Sometime, I hope to hear Thomas Sowell’s opinion. In the mean time, I suggest we respect Ronald Reagan’s 11th commandment and not speak ill of Republicans. After all, some Republican will be running against Hillary and he will have all some amount of negative baggage that was generated by conservatives. Just a thought. :)

During his entire tenure as governor of Massachusetts Romney had a veto proof RAT majority in both houses of the state legislature.He had,in fact,little real power while in office.

At least Mitt took on the toughest issues in the most liberal state in the nations and grappled with them long and hard....before taking the liberal line on each and every one of them.
Later he famously slandered the record of Ronald Reagan in order to prop up his own sh!tty liberal record. Willard the Weatherboy--always a moist finger in the air, always willing to say anything to get elected.

To: Petronski
FRed will never be attacked in this manner. Apart from McCain-Feingold, he has no substantial accomplishments of any kind to even scrutinize let alone attack.
That FRed. He's brilliant. Here, some of us thought that his bankruptcy of accomplishments was due to his legendary laziness. But it turns out he planned it that way to avoid attacks! He was just being visionary and cunning.

How's FRed liking that water? Feeling good . . . feeling warm . . . . a little warmer . . . maybe . . . . maybe now . . . . no, wait little longer . . . . just a little longer . . . swish the water a little with his pinky toe. . . . oooooh! Feeling better all the time . . . not quite there . . . . give it time . . . . don't rush it . . . . give it time . . . . squeeze it through the toesies . . . . mmmmmmmmm . . . . almost warm enough . . . . . .

Deroy Murdock is an ABSOLUTE tool. He needs to resign and campaign for Rudy full-time.
