Scarborough Tweet-Taunts Romney: 'A Real Conservative Would Be Winning Now'
News Busters ^ | 9-9-12 | Tim Graham

Posted on 09/09/2012 12:55:08 PM PDT by cdchik123

The Huffington Post is happy: "MSNBC's Joe Scarborough offered some harsh words for Mitt Romney via Twitter on Saturday night."

"Romney will lose if he doesn't dramatically change his strategy," he said. "Negative ads won't substitute for conservative ideas."

The 'Morning Joe' host continued: "The Romney campaign is not conservative. It is just as cynical and risk-averse as Team Obama. A real conservative would be winning now."

..Scarborough also on Saturday criticized Romney for his vague policies.

"Romney has been clear he will avoid specifics on balancing the budget and shrinking government. Not the Reagan and Thatcher way," he said. "The truth is that Thatcher would have lost in 1979 and Reagan would have lost in 1980 if they had run as timid a campaign ad Mitt Romney."

He responded to critics: "Yikes. Denial has set in. Circle the wagons, ignore the storm clouds, blindly follow...Go Team Go!!"

At least a dead body hasn’t been found in Romney’s office.

Is he the one that also said that he was getting anonymous leaks from within the Gop-e that they were worried —or was that another pundit. Joe can be so lame/whatever his reasons are, I agree with this statement.

I agree with Joe, for the most part. I wish Romney would talk more conservatism, but I’m not sure it is in his bones. However, negative ads against Obama will work and are, indeed, necessary.

“What does Scarborough know about being a real conservative?”

He knows what to say in order to get real conservatives not to vote, thus re-electing Obama.

Like others here, I agree wth Joe’s premise, but he’s in no position to judge. He’ spent how many years trying to damage conservatives, and spread lies. He was probably behind Romney or f’ing Huntsman in the primary. He is the first to attack anyone communicating bold conservatism.
