“Romney Touts Ability to Find Common Ground With Democrats”

Yeah, and as you point out, that is the main problem with so many of the republicans.

[Lakeshark]

or he has had his head in the sand for the last 20 years.

I might politely suggest it has been far closer to something in his own body than the sand....

I'm sure Chamberlain bragged about his ability to work with Hitler too. Some say he was just naive. However: If you hold this view, reading The Chamberlain-Hitler Collusion will shock. You will find out that the British ruling class found nothing abhorrent in the Nazis. They welcomed Hitler's regime (as they did Franco's and Mussolini's), encouraged Germany to re-arm, and fully expected to work in alliance with it, right up until 1939. The book dispels the idea that Chamberlain desired a deal with Hitler because he was naive or wanted to avoid bloodshed. Indeed much of Chamberlain's hopes rested on encouraging Germany to go to war - against the Soviet Union. I'm not comparing Romney with Chamberlain other than making a point that working with one's opponents is either naive or there is a hidden agenda.

Does the RINO think that this is going to win conservatives hearts?

Romney reminds us so much of McCain.

[fish hawk]

He can find common ground with quite a few Republicans. Lugar, Snowe, Lindsy Graham, McCain, etc. What he can't do is find common ground with the Tea Party and without their support, he is dead.

BIRDS OF A FEATHER...............

“I worked with [former Massachusetts Sen.] Ted Kennedy, for Pete’s sakes,”

We know! On RomneyCare. That's the PROBLEM, not a PLUS.

Get a clue -there IS no 'working WITH" the devil. they do NOT work 'with' us, the ride roughshod until our RHINO's give in.

You do not make deals with the devil and come out even, let alone ahead..."for Pete's " or anyone Else's sake.

We realize you're making nice with them still, so's they'll continue to back you for our candidate - but we don't want you, you lily-livered traitor, aka "Plastic Man"

All RINOS act alike, ie, liberals..................

[SMARTY]

I wish I knew what some of these ‘Conservatives’ like Mitt find so attractive about the bi-partisan, ‘common ground’ path.

It is a blind alley and we have been down there before. Why are there any REMAINING Conservatives STILL think THAT is the way? When a cat sits on a hot stove and gets burned, he won't sit on another hot stove again.... and if he's a real smart cat, he will never sit on a cold one EITHER!!

[Red Badger]

What he can't do is find common ground with the Tea Party and without their support, he is dead.

Don't be so sure. The NE liberal RINO Club will support him to the hilt.............

[5thGenTexan]

Birds of a feather, eh? He agrees so much he should run as a Democrat.

[little jeremiah]

If the Republicans could find common ground with the Constitution, then I would listen.

[Retired COB]

Mitt Romney struck a conciliatory note in New Hampshire on Monday by lamenting partisan feuding while touting his record of working with Democrats

Hey Mitt, why don't you change parties and run against Obama in the primary????

If we wanted to elect someone who could get along with the Democrats, we'd vote for a Democrat! I don't vote to send anyone to DC to get along with the enemy.

[fish hawk]

I’m hoping there are way more Tea Party “get out and vote” members than there are RINO lovers.

[Red Badger]

The Tea Party people are spread out all over the country. The NE RINOs are concentrated....................

[Diogenesis]

Romney, he is not like the others.

[Impy]

There is no common ground. Except on the chasing interns front where members of both parties have manged to find a consensus.

Assuming we win the Presidency, we will pick up a lot of seats in the Senate. We’ll wind up with 55 to 60 seats and, if we don’t hit 60 in 2012, we’ll for sure hit 60 in 2014.

Bottom line: we don’t need no stinkin’ Democrats.
