MMMmm...pardon me, but destructive to WHOM? The left will pound this at him if he is the nominee...see my tagline!
What is short-sighted is that Romney supporters can't see that all of his baggage will be aired out if he is nominated. He can never win the general! The independents will run from him and the conservatives don't trust him, while the Evangelicals will stay home.
Destructive to whom? To all of us who understand the importance of a market economy. These dishonest criticisms undermine support for economic freedom and play into the hands of the left.
I agree that Romney has lots of baggage, but Bain isn’t baggage. All these ads do is provide aid and comfort to the OWS goons and movement socialists. His record in MA should be enough to sink him 10 times over. That record is what he should be beaten with.
I don’t support Mittens. I don’t trust him, and he and Huntsman are the only two potential nominees that I probably wouldn’t vote for.
The best we can hope for in NH tonight is that Romney doesn’t get a big win. If the vote continues to be split, I think a lot of the Establishment Rs will begin to concede that Mittens doesn’t have enough grassroots support to be the nominee...at least I hope so.
