So he’s a liar. Yeah. We know. Now he’s faking it as a Conservative.

Can not stand Romney. I’m not about to vote for a Mormon theocracy headed by a liar beholden to Salt Lake via Temple blood oaths.

Romney’s faked it in the other 49 states as well.

Mitt took no salary while governor...we got what we paid for.

p.s. Santorum sucks ass too; I hope we have a draft/brokered convention.

Romney speaking as a conservative is like me speaking as a Mexican. I might be able to say some words, but that doesn’t mean I have any idea what they mean.

"That same article quoted his top strategist at the time, Mike Murphy, as saying Mr. Romney had been 'a pro-life Mormon faking it as a pro-choice friendly.'"

That's an outright lie. Romney did several abortion-friendly things while he was governor. Not just said them, but did them.

He included subsidized abortions in Romneycare, as something every woman had a right to. And he appointed several flaming leftist abortionist judges to state courts. And when he designed the Board of Directors of Romneycare, he put the head of Planned Parenthood of Massachusetts on it, Ex Officio. So, Planned Parenthood always has an inside governing influence on Romneycare, and it doesn't even need to send lobbyists around to do it.

Not to mention Romney's role in establishing gay marriage in Massachusetts.

That “faking it” card is a tough one to play. You can never come right out and say it, because you are admitting you are a liar. It does more harm than good. Even if an operative is the one saying it.

So all you can do is “wink” it and hope the ones that count catch your wink. That’s not easy and prone to failure.

I was expecting the “I was just faking in a liberal community” excuse but am still surprised at just how blunt they came out with it. It means he lied to get the job and didn’t do anything to stop what he was philosophically against - meaning it was not based on core principles or strong driven “help his community” agenda. IOW, he took the job for the power.

Which is how I see his presidential bid. What do people with all the money they want crave next: Power. Power for the sake of power. And that is not the kind of mindset we want behind our president motivating his actions.

What it actually means is he’ll do or say anything to get elected.

Tired to those sorts.

I don’t know which side he’s faking. I don’t care to find out. The bottom line is that I don’t trust Mitt Romney.

I’ve actually come to this same conclusion in recent months. He’s not liberal...he shifted leftward to get elected in MA. He also is not conservative. He shifted far right in 2008 and inched back toward the middle in 2009-2012. He’s somewhere in the middle. I am no fan of mushy moderates, so this is in no way a supportive message. I just think he is a milquetoast moderate guy...no real vision or agenda to do anything spectacular...just an ambitious guy willing to do whatever it takes to get to the oval office.

So either he faked it, and Romney is a fake.
Or he didn’t fake it, and Romney is a liberal.

The real question is how many times has Mitt’s wife had to fake it.

Those of us who live in Massachusetts have known for many years that Mitt Romney is a leftist liberal.

The aborted babies that he is responsible for are NOT faking dead. Someone truly prolife would never fake a pro-abortion position. This is beyond sick to even think anyone would buy it.

I heard Mittens say that he is “conservative on issues that matter most” to conservatives.
...Whatever that means.
