You’re relentless.

I think my comment about the necessity of adopting Conservatism isn’t farfetched. That’s not to say he’s Conservative in heart.

Mittler? Few will make the connection between genocide and infanticide.

I think Romney-Ryan plan to defund a lot of things.

Big Government has been put on notice.

One of the quickest way of eliminating abortion is to defund Planned Parenthood. I believe Romney/Ryan will do this once they start taking a knife to the budget. And that’s what frightens the left.

Mitt Romney was pro-abortion for 42 years, he fund raised for Planned Parenthood and supported them, 4 days ago he declared that he is still pro-abortion, and has been openly, throughout the campaign.

Did that knock your legs out from under you?

“And you are decidedly anti-RNC nominee.”

“I see from your posts on FR, you will be staying busy posting anti-Romney comments.”

“To me that makes you pro-Obama in the election.”

GO TO HELL.

By what I have heard, Mitt sure sounds like he is becoming more conservative.

From what I have heard in bits and pieces last night, yes, it sure sounds like Mitt is moving right.

If he wants to protect his family and ours from the destruction being done to the U.S. -- he will move Right. I believe he understands that.

I was wondering if you knew, not your opinion.

“”Tell me something, and please answer, you are a Romney supporter and vetted him carefully, did you know “throughout this campaign”, that Mitt was a “health of the mother” abortion supporter?
Did any or all of you Romney supporters reading this know that, or is this a bombshell that just dropped on you?””

Mitt is sure is starting to act conservative. Some FRpers FORGET that people CAN and DO CHANGE.

Mitt will be pushed whichever way his followers are pushing him. If we tea-partiers shout more and demonstrate more and come out more, we can push him more to our side. I have no illusions about Mitt being anywhere near a Palin, but he’s pliable, so lets ply him to our side.

“Is Mitt Becoming More Conservative?”

Unlikely.

No!!! ROTFLOL Really now!!! Let me get this straight you honestly really think that Mitt Romney is now going to sell out the all the Money-Men who got him here? That he is going to reverse his political ideological stances on issues that he has spent his whole political career advancing? Come on now nice try at spin but that cycle shut off a long time ago.

I mean really people have access to LexusNexis, Government.com,org,net, all his speeches, government business, private sector records, etc... people who took to the time to look into Mitt Romney know exactly who he is and what he stands for. There is no guessing about who Mitt is anymore. It is all out there with no interpretation needed.

It was a nice speech on American exceptionalism but he is not going to throw away his core beliefs out the window based on a campaign speech.

That isn't true at all, it never has been, the man has been on a single minded political road his entire life, liberal. The man is 66 years old and has never wavered from his political beliefs except when campaigning for this national position to rule the GOP, now that he has wrapped up the nomination he has already moved against the tea party and the right, and reverted back to his pro-abortion position.

Once the election is over, he will do what he wants as he reshapes the party into the image of himself and his mentor, William Weld.

You answer post 52, did you know? Or are you shocked?
