Team Romney: No, we’re not declaring ‘cease-fire’ on Obamacare

Washington Examiner ^

[Perdogg]

In the days since the Supreme Court decision upholding Obamacare, some Democrats and commentators in the press have suggested that Mitt Romney is declaring a “cease-fire” on the issue and will no longer make it a centerpiece of his campaign to defeat President Obama.

Crap. Pure crap.

[Dysart]

That's fine; it's your prerogative to think and act upon that assertion if you wish, even it's not in your interest. I've reached another conclusion and it wasn't very hard, really. Sometimes you have to take a broader, longer view in the nasty business of politics. Consider it.

And, Norman, it's been delightful, but we're off to get a big fat juicy steak directly. (I'm thinking I better relish it now before The King and his supporters determines the consumption of beef not only violates Cow rights but compounds globull worming, or whatever it's called.)

A reminder: Vote Obama 2012!!

Anyway, good post, Kenny. And like I say, it’s one of the reasons I get all my news and commentary from FR, because of the multitude of good ideas presented here, by some posters some of the time. No place is 100%. That’s impossible. But this place is way up there in intelligent discussion, despite some obvious counter-examples that you might see.

Logic, pure logic

“We can’t stop electing liberal Republicans. “

Then America is over.

All, it’s been fun but I have to sign off. I’ll check back in later.

I feel that with Romney we at least have a shot at a SCOTUS nominee who is to the right of Kagan.

Yeah, we my even get another Roberts.

ABO was coined by Sarah Palin (in case you didn't know). In its context it meant "anyone who is running for the GOP nomination".

I think your hyperbolic idea she might have meant Bill Ayers is a bit wacked out. But you knew that.......

Soooo, what was the meaning of your post?

We must campaign for the re-election of the worst President in American history in order to accomplish nothing but harm for America.

Romney is going to repeal Obamacare and President Obama is going to keep it.

So who is going to repeal RomneyCare since Romney is going to keep it ???

It is a cast in gold fact that since Reagan left, the candidates offered by the GOP have gotten more liberal with each election.

I don't think that GWB was more liberal than Bob Dole.

[dragnet2]

Are you suggesting Romney is a conservative with a conservative history?

This is a simple... Yes or no?

Not a paragraph of long winded babble...Just yes or no.

Go ahead, give it a shot yam.

[rogue yam]

Mclame isn’t a strong conservative.

That's putting it mildly.

And yet there was none of the lies and hysteria directed at him and his supporters that you see on every political thread these days on FR.

Why is that?

One word: Mormonism.

GWB was a disaster for us.

Replacing Ginsburg with a Roberts would be a good thing. I’d prefer another Thomas. We should be working to insure that happens.

The chance of it occurring with Obama as President is zero.

[rogue yam]

My estimation is that you are utterly irrational and dishonest.

I think that every single thing you say is a lie, and that you are incapable of learning anything.

That is my answer to your question.

rogue yam is, as usual, light years from the truth.

His snake-Master, Mitt Romney, had his surrogates
backstab Gov. Palin and her CHILDREN
on the Eve of Election 2008.

FLASHBACK:

The McCain/Palin ticket was up ++4 to 10 pts
in some polls, days prior to Election 2008.
So rather than helping the GOP, Romney and
TeamROMNEY and the RNME (Republican National Media Establishment)
decided …to attack Gov. Palin to throw Election2008.

Romney, and the Van der Sloot RNME RINOs for Obama in 2008

Late in October, The American Spectator's The Prowler revealed:
"Former Mitt Romney presidential campaign staffers…
have been involved in spreading anti-Palin spin to reporters, seeking to diminish her standing after the election.
'Sarah Palin is a lightweight, she won't be the first, not even the third, person people will think of when it comes to 2012,'
says one former Romney aide…
'The only serious candidate ready to challenge to lead the Republican Party is Mitt Romney.
"Some former Romney aides were behind the recent leaks to media, including CNN, that Governor Sarah Palin was a 'diva' and was going off message intentionally."

---

The Palmetto Scoop reported: "One of the first stories to hit the national airwaves was
the claim of a major internal strife between close McCain aides and the folks handling his running mate Sarah Palin."
"I’m told by very good sources that this was indeed the case and that a rift had developed, but it was between Palin’s people and the staffers brought on from the failed presidential campaign of former Gov. Mitt Romney, not McCain aides."
"The sources said nearly 80 percent of Romney’s former staff was absorbed by McCain and these individuals were responsible for what amounts to a premeditated, last-minute sabotage of Palin."
… aides loyal to Romney inside the McCain campaign, said The Scoop, reportedly saw
that Palin would be a serious contender for the Republican nomination in 2012 or 2016, which made her a threat to another presidential quest by Romney.

---

"These staffers are now out trying to finish her off ….hoping it would ingratiate themselves with Mitt Romney."

---

"Who's the Palin Leaker from the McCain Campaign?
National Review Online The publication of a Vanity Fair profile of Sarah Palin
appears to have opened old wounds in the McCain campaign.
... the source of the “Diva” leak was Nicolle Wallace’s husband."

"Peeking Out From the McCain Wreckage: Mitt Romney"

"Someone's got to say it: IS MITT ROMNEY RESPONSIBLE FOR OBAMA'S VICTORY?"

"Vanity: Team Romney Sabotaged Palin and Continuing to Do So?"

"Romney Supporters Trashing Palin"

"Romney advisors sniping at Palin?"

False dichotomy.

There are other solutions. Neither one is good for either of the bad guys.

Thanks for playing.

And welcome to FR.

GWB was a disaster for us.

Two questions:

1) Compared to whom?

2) Therefore what?

[hoosiermama]

thanks. Those all seem to have a connection to health care. Was looking for taxes contained in the bill that have absolutely NO connection to medicine. ...Pure taxes. If what I’ve read there may be a huge increase in Inheritance tax, a tax on the sale of real estate, and a tax on any financial transaction.....Tax, tax, tax.
