The guy has had the worst press of any candidate. He wins states and it is not good enough. He comes in second and it is not good enough. He has the most delegates and it is not good enough. I think he has had enough of reporters.

Funny, I did not see an angry Romney. I saw a reporter try to rile up Romney. Hillary has reporters who worship her and fawn at her every move. Romney has reporters who are hostile towards him. The non-bias meida....

I’m not the biggest Romney fan but that reporter is a little wuss. It’s this infantile, silly variety of “reporting”—the product of an age that is infatuated with the offscreen lives of actors and singers—that makes people see the press as biased and untrustworthy.

President Clinton seems a bit riled over this reporter.

I did not see anything wrong with Romney’s reply to the jerk reporter. ABC is a joke and the press is a joke. What was your point in posting this?

Very few are playing the end of the tape where the lady, who has nothing to do with the Romney campaign, tells the reporter he is “rude and ugly”, something I’m sure we would all have liked to tell him.

Amen to that. And people think the media fears Fred the most? Not a chance. Surely they would were Fred where Romney is but the media most definitely fears Romney.

Well just look at him. He is by far the most presidential looking of the bunch, both sides included. He is as cool as can be under fire, never loses his composure or his smile. He speaks confidently and appears very much in charge.

He is a Republican so of course the media despise him and my opinion is THEY believe he is their biggest threat. The left is 100% form over substance so the physical attractiveness of Romney along with his strong communications skills, frankly scares the hell out of them.

Romney is about 3rd or 4th on my list, but he does seem to face a lot more hostility from both other candidates and the press. I don’t know if the press is “scared” of him or not.

Romney is third on my list also. Behind Duncan Hunter and Fred Thompson. However, Duncan Hunter has not gathered sufficient support to be a viable candidate and If Fred doesn’t win SC or finish a very close second then he is probably not going to continue. I will then fully support Romney on Super Tuesday with my vote here in Missouri.

Of course they are scared of him. He poses the greatest threat to their liberal agendas. They love McCain and Huckabee. Shouldn’t that tell you something? I favor Fred but I don’t think he has a chance. Romney does. That’s why the press has gone after him from day one. I like Romney. He is cool under pressure and doesn’t cry when people disagree with him. He will make a great leader.

I agree......he definitely has staying power, and I like his credentials....his business experience is indeed a plus....

Romney handled that rude and obnoxious little weasel very, very well.

Actually the headline should read: “Angry reporter rips Romney”
