It is amazing how many experts there are at being able to accurately predict what is going to happen. I've heard Romney will destroy the GOP, as well as just about every other candidate or the experts know so-and-so can, or cannot win.

The truth is NO ONE knows what is going to happen. Everyone is entitled to give an opinion but that's all it is--an opinion.

Jane Swift wrote this and that is all that one needs to know.

I think that someone less credible than this shameless hack could criticize Romney much more effectively if they only had a brain.

Looks like the same 1/2 dozen or so people on this board that are on a jihad against Mitt. Sometimes you can overplay your hand.

For those interested just do a search on some of them starting with Ol” Sparkey, Liesler and so on. You will find the “Mormon problem” in there postings.

Young blue collar people are fleeing Massachusetts in significant numbers--and many others who stay work under the table.

High taxes is one reason--and Romney's new mandatory health care insurance is another.

Give it a few years and nobody in Mass. will be able to get a toilet fixed.

When the &^%t flows all over their house they will remember Mitt's term as governor.

I really really hope we can do better.

:-(

I don’t know much about MA politics but doesn’t this lady (Swift) have some kind of grudge against Mitt? At least that’s what I heard.

Check out the author: Jane Swift, the "acting governor" whose plans for power Romney ruined.

Hell hath no fury...

Jane Swift is a fellow Mass. Republican.....!!

She was "acting governor" prior to the 2001 election. She was passed over in favor of Romney by the state GOP.

There's a well known saying: hell hath no fury...

“Jane Swift served as actring governor of Massachusetts from 2001 to 2003.”

She’s not too swift.

"You’re carrying water for Hillary with your attacks on President Romney"

And "President Romney" is carrying ALL the water for RINO, flip flopping, lying, big government, dirtbag politicians every where.

“This shows they are afraid of Romney. And why I support him.”

YEP.

It’s called MDS.

“In a Romney-Clinton match-up, Democrats need only take a page from the George W. Bush playbook: Undermine the voters’ sense that Romney can be trusted by highlighting the number of times he’s conveniently changed his mind.”

The writer may have some truth in her assertions, but the idea that anyone would be concerned about Romney flip-flopping as against the terrible ammoral/untruthful record of the Clintons is truly amazing. The news pundits are already talking about Clinton fatigue!

It all goes back to bigotry. Pure and simple.

That’s self evident.

The Prime Directive of the Romney Sleaze Machine is thus:

When JoeFreeper criticizes Willard, Willard’s fans attack JoeFreeper.

At least when you do this, Checkers, ping those you mention. It’s an unwritten FR rule (and also the courteous and brave thing to do).
