I’m no Romney fan, but he might have been living in poorer digs for the other 22 months. Not only that, but he got an upset stomach from the seasoning the chef used!

Wonder if he didn’t know the 10000$ remark was really stupid until someone reminded him the people he was trying to get to vote for him mostly didn’t have 10k in net assets to bet with.

I’ll bash Romney because there is no position that is near and dear to a ‘Conservative’, that he hasn’t had both a “Pro” and a “Con” viewpoint on. Abortion, gun control, illegal aliens - I’m truly not sure how he feels about cannibalism.

But, I’ll not bash him because he’s been successful.

So why is it we have to get this from the British press, instead of our own press?

Romney is detached. Detached from reality, detached from regular people.

Here’s a hint, Mitt. Reminding me that you were a mormon missionary is not going to endear you to me.

Not for nothing but when you are living in France with all those cafes and restaurants nearby - what the hell do you need a refrigerator in your house for? Even if you don’t eat out every day, most Europeans have no need for a refrigerator at home - they have a culture where they shop daily for fresh ingredients to prepare their meals for that day.

Do we really want a guy who spent time spreading a false religion in other countries as our president?

Successful, fine.

Born rich, fine.

Born rich, then further successful, fine.

Born rich, successful, then stealing the nobility of the working poor who can't seem to get a break, by lying during election time, NOT OKAY.

Me neither but "success" is not the issue. It's "honesty" with the voters. What else will he be dishonest with?

Will he (as many think)pander the liberal votes after he's won the GOP nomination?

If he flip flops on abortion, liberal judges he's nominated and gay marriage, then is dishonest about his toiletless hardships in France... who's to say he cannot flip-flop for the liberal vote as our nominee?

Or Michelle Bachmann. She seems to have seen checks cashed by Newt but totally missed Romney's dishonesty. I think she knows she will be on the ticket with Mitt. He will pander to the democrats (something he's a pro at) and Bachmann will round up the tea party voters.

At least part of his time in France might have been expensive, but certainly wasn’t comfy. He was pronounced dead by a French cop after an auto accident. The person sitting next to him stayed dead, he recovered but IIRC it took a couple months. He was driving, but wasn’t at fault - another car came around a blind curve head on in his lane.

Mitt Romney did his missionary work in France?? So, why is this article important?? To me it isn't...I'm no Romney supporter, but if he is the GOP Candidate I'll vote for him.

Voting #rd party is a vote for the Marxist Jimah Cahtah II (aka 0). (I think I insulted Jimmy Carter when I compare O's administration with his).

The magic word is "IF" which is why we have a primary. He's not the GOP Candidate yet. There are 4 front-runners. So, we need not hand it to the RINO so quickly.
