Some people generate rumors, because they want them to be true.
Then there others who jump to accept the rumors, because they also want them to be true.
Who is the more pathetic?

"Who is the more pathetic?"

My vote goes to the intellectually challenged who can't stop worshipping at the throne of a complete and total fraud.

I have only positive things to say about Jandel and Palin.
You are the one who keeps digging up negative things to say about candidates.

McCain was the only one with a chance.

Well partly because of the backstabbing by people like you, we are probably all going to be worshiping at the feet of a real fraud, OBAMA.

This is not about digging, it is about exposing a sleazy, short lived, one term politician.

When you find a scummy liberal, you have to make sure that he does not spend a $150,000,000 dollars to steal your goals for your nation and your fellow man.

Whom did I backstab, Bronkie ? You’re not talking about that liberal fraud who has the people of Massachusetts worshipping at the feet of Debbil Patrick ?

Nope...and the only reason McCain is doing as well as he is can be credited to Palin and Obama himself! Romney wouldnt have picked Palin and actually may be doing a lot worse.

Would he have made the mistakes McCain has? Romney is a fighter so I guess we will never know.

“Romney is a fighter “


For what? Homosexuals in the military, abortion, anti-second amendment, illegal aliens, planned parenthood fundraising.

God knows what he did in those four short years when he governed, although he did appoint 75% democrat Judges.

I honestly think McCain should mention that he will appoint Romney as Economic Guru to help put economy back in order and Guiliani Attorney General who took on the mob and now will take on “crooked washington insiders and wall street” etc...

Yeah, because we all want the guy that gave Massachusetts budget-busting Socialized Medicine to be the Republican "Economic Guru." Brilliant. Hell, why not hire Barney Frank and Chris Dodd for bookends ?

None of the other guys, as VP or Pres, would have energized the base like McCain’s pick of Palin. We would not be seeing 10,000 in attendance at rallies if Palin was not on the ticket, and McCain was the only one with the chutzpah to pick her. So at least we have the majority of the base, )but only because of Palin), which we would not have if Guiliani, Huckabee, or Romney were President or VP. That MHO.

I voted for Rudy in the primary!

Were you using another name before the "Not a Purge" purge?

I just wish John McCain would open his mouth and Newt Gingrich’s words would come out. Newt is so logical and such an effective communicator. He outlines what to do in easily understandable steps. he would wipe the floor with Mr. vague generality Obama.

First, Romney the traitor CONTINUES to have his minions
ruin this election. Bastard Mitt.

Second, Romney destroyed the economic miracle of Massachusetts
BEFORE he tanked the state with his socialized medicine.

Romney wiped out Massachusetts.

The five states with least favorable business climates are Califorinia (lowest ranking), New York, Michigan, New Jersey and Massachusetts.

Romney was rated a "C" overall by Cato. Here are the facts.

As U.S. real output grew 13 percent between 2002 and 2006, Massachusetts trailed at 9 percent.
* Manufacturing employment fell 7 percent nationwide those years, but sank 14 percent under Romney, placing Massachusetts 48th among the states.
* Between fall 2003 and autumn 2006, U.S. job growth averaged 5.4 percent, nearly three times Massachusetts' anemic 1.9 percent pace.
* While 8 million Americans over age 16 found work between 2002 and 2006, the number of employed Massachusetts residents actually declined by 8,500 during those years.
"Massachusetts was the only state to have failed to post any gain in its pool of employed residents," professors Sum and McLaughlin concluded.
In an April 2003 meeting with the Massachusetts congressional delegation in Washington, Romney failed to endorse President Bush's $726 billion tax-cut proposal.
