Pardon my ignorance, but who is Mitch Daniels? Is he related to Margaret Truman Daniels?
Did anyone catch the startling comment by Andrea Mitchell, post debate? The thread (with video) below covers it.
Romney Adviser Said Party Elites Will Find Alternative If Romney Can't Win Florida
My cross-thread post (so many questions, yet unanswered)
Full Andrea Mitchell quote:
ANDREA MITCHELL: "I talked to a top Romney adviser tonight who said, 'Look, if Mitt Romney can not win here in Florida then we're going to have to try to reinvent the smoke-filled room which has been democratized by all these primaries. And we're going to have try to come with someone as an alternative to Newt Gingrich who could be Jeb Bush, Mitch Daniels, someone.' Because there is such a desperation by the so-called party elites, but that's exactly what Gingrich is playing against."

Andrea Mitchell was breathless to report this, and I was shocked to hear it. Is she talking about a replacement for Romney OR the introduction of an additional RINO to split the primary votes against Newt? leading to a brokered convention?
Why would a "top Romney adviser" be telling AM this now?
If you were Romney, wouldn't you fire the "top Romney adviser" immediately?
Would Romney be willing to get out of the race so quickly if he loses FLA?
Wouldn't such a tactic backfire on the RINO elites? Wonder if that's why Coulter was in such a state of panic on O'Reilly's program.

Another article that covers the Andrea Mitchell comment:
Yes, I heard her say this and nearly jumped out of my couch!
Well, the rumor is that if Mittens loses in Floriduh, the GOP Elite will move to replace him.
Yes and yes. Have been watching this little sideshow with great interest. If WE win, they will attempt a coup. That is the only word for it, so the WIN MUST be decisive. And I mean we had better frikkin’ be so ready for combat that they don’t dare attempt it. If they are willing to do whatevr it takes, we have to be ready to doubledown and do TWICE what it takes.
They pulled the wool over our eyes with GWB and won that round hands down. GWB was nothing less than a continuation of clinton, and obama is a ccntinuation of GWB. romney or someone of his ilk would be the continuation of obama.
We cannot let them do that to us again. EVER.
One thing we have in our favor is that thy are simply clueless a to who the Independent voters in this country are. THEY think independents are liberals and ‘moderates’ that they have to please. I think it is US. More and more of us left the GOP out of principle when they returned to dem lite. I would rather slit my wrists than register as a democrat. Others on this forum have done the same and are reregistering GOP to vite for Newt.
Are Kristol and Barnes still the alpha dog Faux conservatives on Faux News?
I don’t watch Faux News anymore, there were so many Barbies with lots of hair, shining white teeth showing way too much leg, I felt like I was watching a soft porn channel instead of seeking valuable information.
“You are wrong...Kristol has NEVER been a Romney fan,”
You sure about that. I remember in 2008 the NR endorsed Romney.
I too wish we had true moral leadership. But then we haven’t had that since... Calvin Coolidge. In the purest sense.
Television,and hollyweird have a lot to answer for. Marxists know this— and the really nasty part about that is that they have no morals at all— but use moralistic arguments to push their junk. Remember, jimmah cahtah was to be a clean moralistic baptist lay minister type— and turned out to be a corrupt, saudi-owned, anti-semitic, anti-catholic, incompetent boob who preached moralism to a deaf world, and gave us iran, and took away the panama canal. A tool of the Rockefellers.
So what do we have with obama?- a tool of one worlders and the extragovernmental world bankers. No regard for our sovereignty or our constitution. It is a time for patriots who can dismantle this nightmare— and important to realize that it won’t take a saint to do it. Oh, for a moral populace instead of the narcissistic pagans we have.
Jeb Bush? are they nuts? Too many Bushes, thought of like conservative kennedys by the left.
This is really disturbing, and I’m pissed at the incredible manipulation of our electoral process by these non-working elitist morons who are NOT patriots. I don’t know what they are, but they need to go away.
Mitch who? He almost put me to sleep.
Yeah, I am sure about it. He was Sarah Palin’s biggest cheerleader, started talking about her for VP before most anyone else ever heard of her...wanted her to run in 2012 & if not her, Mitch Daniels or Rubio. This was long before Newt announced, but Romney had already announced.
Nothing self rightous about Bill, not one thing. What an Obama.
