Given Romney’s track record of political opportunism, what would happen if you could prove to him statistically that calling Obama a socialist would attract independents in the general election instead of driving them away? Would Mitt still object to using that term on principle or would it be time for a second look at red meat? That is to say, how much of his smugness in the clip is justified by being genuinely above-the-fray and how much of it is just a pose aimed at dismissing Santorum as a cheap rhetorical bottom-feeder.

It works well for Barry and the ‘RATS. The Republicans need to try it some time.
Romney is a certain loser in November
When I look at Mittens, I see a real wimp.
"I have to tell you. Sen. Obama is a decent person and a person you don’t have to be scared of as president of the United States," McCain told a supporter at a town hall meeting in Minnesota who said he was “scared” of the prospect of an Obama presidency and of who the Democrat would appoint to the Supreme Court.

true that
Thanks Mitt for letting us know what you really think of us.
Willard, you are too chicken to tell the truth!
McCain without the excitement.
Pray for America
At least, McCain intended to insult the base.
Romney does it by accident.
It's also very easy to tick off the base and they all stay home.
Good point, McCain hates Republicans.
If Mittens, and the MSM, would go after Obama as hard as they have gone after Republicans - CONSERVATIVE Republicans, specifically - then we wouldn’t be sitting in this boat overlooking the precipice of failed-countries!
Even worse than the picture I painted above, is the fact that we got Obama - The Won - standing and doing his best George Washington “Crossing the Delaware” pose as he is proudly guiding us toward that very precipice!
Just like people in the media; also like Jeb Bush and Chris Christie saying that Newt was going a little overboard with his language about Obama. Duh, now we are not suppose to call out Obama for his unconstitutional activities or to show the differences in a pro growth idea vs. the redistribution of wealth idea. It is becoming very scary to see the establishment and the media taking away our voices to refer to us as extreme. We are being silence through political correctness, making individuals have least confidence in themselves relying on the government and by the weak politicians and their policies. Get me a patriot, like now. Where are the strong patriots who want to fight. I am supporting Newt to the end. Very upset about this mess that we’re in because I want reforms.
It’s the opposite. Mitt’s just telling us what the world thinks of us. Nearly every school teacher works to indoctrinate their students in a liberal world view. The media is against us along with academia. Sometimes conservatives are utterly naive.
Our agenda isn’t going to be well served if we’re easily painted as kooks and radicals. Santorum fell right into the trap and stayed there. It is bad strategy. Instead we need to be the steady voice of reason. I like Santorum, but unless he can focus and stay on message he’s not ready for prime time. When you’re winning you don’t need to go on the offensive, you just work hard to hold the line.
Willard, you are too chicken to tell the truth!
He’s too stupid to know the truth. The whole , I can’t say anything bad about anyone but Republicans, is a loser game plan.
Don’t rouse the peasants!
