It’s Romney’s birthday today.

I know this because I’m watching Neil Cavuto and the slimebag is Neil’s guest.

[Cincinatus' Wife]

Didn't see this thread earlier!

Thanks!

I put one over here.

GO NEWT!

Today is Romney’s birthday.

I guess he’s 66.

Romney is talking to Neil Cavuto and he’s getting mad...LOL.

He said we cannot go until August without a nominee!

WHY NOT?

[trappedincanuckistan]

Better no nominee than an Obama clone!

[duffee]

I probably won’t be able to watch, I have a group coming at 6 to divy up the Newt signs for our county’s 38 precients. NEWT NEWT NEWT

Are Romney and Paul going to show?

[A. Morgan]

Mitt tries to save face by his absence! LOL I just don’t think that’s gonna work! In fact doing nothing is like OBAMA!

[onyx]

PRECISELY!

[true believer forever]

It will probably be on re-run in the middle of the night, or just turn it up real loud while you are “divvying” - that must be another of those southern terms... Are you okay with signs? because there are a few scattered extra signs that were being claimed this morning by people who were running low... if you are low I can check on them for you...

[true believer forever]

Thanks so much. I want to share :) Happy Viewing tonight!!

[onyx]

GOD BLESS YOU!

No, neither Romney nor Paul are participating!

[true believer forever]

then I answered and said it was a LIE and to never call my number again.

that's campaign 2012 for you - it's got us screaming at our answering machines... oh, November, please come! You're great..

[newzjunkey]

It's billed as a "candidate forum" so I wouldn't expect much in the way of "debate." We'll see.

Given it's a party-sponsored gathering, Newt is likely to be at a disadvantage. Santorum's task, for Romney and the party, is to take down Newt so Romney can finally win in the South.

Newt's task is to be cheerful.

I have no worries about Newt outshining Santorum... but there were 2000 seats that were free to the public, supposedly, and I don’t know much they were manipulated. It is also in a theater, so the audience could be a factor.

Rep. Joe Walsh: We’ve got maybe one election to literally save this country

By not showing up at the Presidential Forum this evening
Romney and Ron Paul are bobbing, weaving and ducking .. doing everything to kept from being called on like kids in class... we’ve all seen it when we went to school they weren’t prepared... being absent isn’t going to cut it!

[Red Steel]

Newt will be on the Hannity show at the top of the hour.

[Leep]

Well, since it isn’t the phone in format there shouldn’t be as many, about 50%, of the questions ask by libs pretending to be “Republicans” or “Independents” :o

[onyx]

I just received my twenty-third robo call from Team Romney!

This one was recorded by our Lt. Governor. I hung up right after he identitfied himself. Didn’t wait to hear the message.

[duffee]

I’m in DeSoto County Ms. The county coordinator for Newt had been sent 50, I’m on my way to pick up 50 more from Shelby County Tn. that have only been used once and the coordinator is meeting someone else for another 25 once used signs. We will pick these up Tuesday night and they will be available for other primaries or November.

[true believer forever]

Godspeed, and thanks so much for the travel time. GO NEWT!
