Pat Toomey: Mitt Romney is a conservative (Another Vichy Republican sellout like DeMint...)
Morning Call ^ | 3/23/12 | Colby Itkowitz

Mitt Romney got the next best thing Friday to an endorsement from U.S. Sen. Pat Toomey, he got validation.

"I think Mitt Romney is a conservative and if he's president, he'll govern as a conservative," Toomey, R-Pa., told reporters after a speech to the Pennsylvania Leadership Conference, the annual gathering of conservatives in the state.

Toomey made his mark in Washington hunting down and replacing Republican moderates in Congress with Republican conservatives as president of Club for Growth, a powerful anti-tax group.

A tea party kingmaker, U.S. Sen. Jim DeMint, R-S.C., also affirmed Romney's conservatism after meeting with him Thursday on Capitol Hill.

LOL! This is the same group that would drive Reagan out of the corral. He would not be “conservative” enough for them. Because he had prior marriages, was a former Democrat and frequently compromised with Democrats to maintain unity and relations. Reagan also increased the budget and spending while he was in office.

He would definitely be labeled as a RINO/Moderate from this malcontented crowd. Reagan dealt with this group when he was in office, and he had a special description for them. It was hilarious.

ALERT! DANGER WILL ROBINSON!

Everyone who ever took and tried to implement conservative positions, but is not 100% pure (according to true believing Freepers)is AN ENEMY!

Might as well just vote for the Kenyan Communist.

If these guys are not conservative enough for you, you should consider the South Pole as a new home.

No, you go. We're free Americans and we're standing our ground. Thanks.

Smart folks will ask themselves how much money Toomey’s organizations have received from Willard and his pals. They’ve been palling around for awhile, so I have no doubt it’s fairly substantial.

No, we don't vote for Leftists.

Not even the ones with Rs by their names.

I’m with you. The conservatives who endorse Mitt are not crazy SOBs.

No, they just lose their legitimate right to call themselves conservatives, since their actions don't match what they say they are.

Let me ask you a question: If someone says they support marital fidelity, but they fool around on the weekends, are they maritally faithful or not?

"I think Mitt Romney is a conservative and if he's president, he'll govern as a conservative."

So, Pat, how much did Romney pay you for that endorsement?

Does anyone around this site care to remember why Toomey might not exactly be pro-Santorum?

Well, I for one do.

Which is absolutely no excuse for propping up the most liberal governor in the history of the republic.

The GOP-E is doing a full-court press this weekend to get Mitt coronated.

Absolutely. And they're arrogantly expecting us to line up behind their RINO pick like good little boys and girls. FUGOPE

In case anyone missed it, here is a video of Romney calling himself a RINO. Enjoy.
