Proof??? Evidence??? Romney was not governor in the 90’s so why are you blaming him?

We had Bill Weld, then he left to be ambassador to Mexico. Then Paul Celluci took over after Weld left. Then Celluci went up to Canada to be ambassador there leaving that walking disaster Jane Swift to be governor.

I think the Massachusetts republican party has been in a shambles for years. I can recall three incidents where Republicans were decimated and stabbed in the back by other Republicans during primaries. The party has been steadily going down hill. This is what Romney inherited.

Romney is the only choice for Republicans.

How many times have we heard that from the established GOP camp?

Too bad non of these candidates were conservative to begin with. Otherwise, all this vote begging and trying to convince people they are now conservatives wouldn't be happening.

You have a major league ignorance problem, doncha boy ? I’m not voting for McCain. I’m not voting for Huckster. I’m sure as hell not voting for you-know-who.

And, yup, by your qualifications, Howard Dean and Mike Dukakis can be the GOP Presidential nominee. Nice to see folks like you who are removing the bar of standards down to as liberal as we can find.

Romney on immigration ... in his own words ... 2006 ...

telling a New Hampshire newspaper: “Those who’ve been arrested or convicted of crimes shouldn’t be here. Those that are here paying taxes and not taking government benefits should begin a process toward application for citizenship, as they would from their home country.”

The Boston Globe reported late 2006 that several illegal immigrants, including at least one from Guatemala, worked at the lawn care company that worked on Romney’s two-and-a-half acre property in a Boston suburb for a decade. His aides have said that Romney was not aware of the workers’ status, and that the owner was in the country legally.

Good list on McCain. You might want to add this one (it would cost each family of four $3500 according to a study released by MIT last year):
• McCain-Lieberman bill [Climate Stewardship Act of 2003 (S. 139)] to establish a Kyoto style cap-and-trade system for greenhouse gases in the United States. [Some more info here]
The successor legislation is the Lieberman-Warner bill. I guess Johnny ducked out when he decided he might get some flack from conservatives if he chose to run for President (even though he continues to tout cap-and-trade and his effort with Lieberman on the campaign trail).

You said the party was dead “a long time.” I disproved that falsehood. If you remember, it was ole Romney who promised to fix things, turn it around from the deliberately inflicted losses under Weld (the only WORSE Governor than Romney — and whom is backing him 100%, an endorsement he seems to want to keep quiet, since ole Weld is a Clintonista), and it was nothing but a lie. He had no intention of doing anything but to use the office as a stepping stone to the Presidency, no intention of doing his job, of which was little more than a nuisance to him. He was a big “F” for failure.

We’re not looking at anything Mitt did yesterday. Didn’t you know that. Tomorrow is another day. And tomorrow we’re going to vote like there’s no tomorrow then either. Because we won’t be able to think about today. We must recognize that Mitt is in a grove here. We can’t look at yesterday or think about tomorrow.

Get it!!! /s

Bet you got a number of voice mails/answering machines with no respondents to your questions.

McCain has had 28 years to fix the problems in Washington and has done nothing but make it worse. How on Earth can you even give him positive attributes by dissing Romney? I definitely know how you feel with the selection we have left, but for goodness sakes McCain would be worse! Global Warming...ugh! We would join Kyoto again! Ugh!!!

You are attempting to rationalize with a McCain nut.
