These Romney brain f-—s are becoming more frequent. What is the man smoking?

The Amish have a great sanction for bad boys or girls. It’s called shunning. Can’t we just shun this......idiot?

ROMNEY CHANGES....

Whoda thunk???

[Soul of the South]

There are so many reasons not to support him it is difficult to remember them all.

Politico -- "Romney spoke Wednesday in front of a long-defunct mall near Los Angeles, and repeatedly pointed out that the mall's closure wasn't entirely Obama's fault. 'Obviously, the challenges here are not all the result of the current administration,' Romney said, waving at the building behind him."

See, Romney *can* appeal to the birchers.

When 2 strong conservatives run with a moderate, and neither conservative will back down the moderate will be the one elected every time.

Mike Church calls him “Mitt for brains”.

[MasterGunner01]

Mittens has taken so many “nuanced” positions on everything that he's a spherical candidate. He could have a one man debate with himself (without any other candidates present) and who knows which one of the Romney schizophrenic persona would win?

Myth Romney looks more and more like sleazy used car salesman every time he opens his mouth. Go away, Myth. You're a legend in your own mind.

[Chgogal]

McRomney has no credibility.

[W. W. SMITH]

Romney is just one of three or four who will run saying, I can do every thing that Obama can, only better. They will then go on to lose the general election and loudly proclaim from the sidelines that they could have bankrupted the country faster than Obama did.
Take a look at history people. We are repeating the nineteen thirties. Let us not repeat Alf Landon who ran with, I can do the same as FDR only better and after losing insisted that he could have done it faster.

Please let us throw out the Alf Landons and nominate a history changer. I believe that person to be Sarah Palin. She can eliminate the Obama second term and I believe guide us away from oblivion as a nation.

Since when has Romney been opposed to crony capitalism? I think his Olympics thing showed him to be a master of it.

That was more of a LDS Church "put on a good front for the rest of the world" thing.

[tsowellfan]

I did not read the article but I would assume he's handing some of the blame to Pelosi and Harry Reid, right?

[GailA]

some just like his Ken looks...plastic.

[Windflier]

some just like his Ken looks...plastic.

I have one or two conservative friends who (unbelievably) support Romney. Here's why:

They recall something about him being successful in business.
He's personally wealthy.
He helped to fix an Olympics debacle.
He was Governor of Massachusetts.
He ran in the 2008 primary.
He claims to be a conservative.
He's got really white teeth and good hair.

That's about it. When I question them closely, I find that they're completely uninformed about his real track record in government, or about his real political bona fides.
