Milt Romney Walked with SUPERMAN



"Whereas most superheroes' secret identities (Bruce Wayne, Peter Parker) are their true identities
--the people they were before their parents were murdered or they were bitten by radioactive spiders
or exposed to gamma rays or what have you--Superman was born Superman.
It's Clark Kent that is the invented alias, the pose, the "costume."
And in the way Superman plays Kent--weak, self-doubting, cowardly--
we can see what he thinks of the human race overall.
It occurred to me that the same is true of Mitt Romney's desperate,
if never terribly persuasive, impersonation of a conservative Republican."
[from "Mitt Romney as Tarantino's Superman", New Republic]


Proven-Failed Governor Mitt Romney should be NOWHERE near government in the USA.

"As U.S. real output grew 13 percent between 2002 and 2006, Massachusetts trailed at 9 percent.
* Manufacturing employment fell 7 percent nationwide those years, but sank 14 percent under Romney, placing Massachusetts 48th among the states.
* Between fall 2003 and autumn 2006, U.S. job growth averaged 5.4 percent, nearly three times Massachusetts' anemic 1.9 percent pace.
* While 8 million Americans over age 16 found work between 2002 and 2006, the number of employed Massachusetts residents actually declined by 8,500 during those years.
"Massachusetts was the only state to have failed to post any gain in its pool of employed residents," professors Sum and McLaughlin concluded.
In an April 2003 meeting with the Massachusetts congressional delegation in Washington, Romney failed to endorse President Bush's $726 billion tax-cut proposal."

[Cato Institute annual Fiscal Policy Report Card - America's Governors, 2004.]


Alex Beam: “In truth, Ronald Reagan
and Mitt Romney have as much in common
as Cardinal O’Malley and Conan O’Brien.
Deservedly or not, Reagan earned a reputation for constancy.
Once he turned against communism, he opposed it big-time.
…. And our former governor? Inconstancy, thy name is Mitt!
A woman’s right to choose? Yes! No! Yes!
Are we in Massachusetts? Yes! Are we in Iowa? No!
Are we on TV? Whatever!”

Its ridiculous.

Slick Willard should just say he changed his mind for perfectly good reasons, even if they are crassly political ones.

What he should NOT do is come across as a slick politician.

But if he can’t stick to a definite stand, you have to wonder what he’ll be like as President.

My only hope, if by some chance Romney wins, is that conservatives will have significant majorities in both Houses, and, He’ll lack the spine to stand up against conservative legislation. I know it’s not much, but worse case scenario, it’s my elusive dream of a silver lining.

Im sure Willard will find a way to rip a hole in the fabric of space to find a new dimension to flip to.

Romney has no core values - - he is a well-lubricated weather vane.
Yeah, he can flip-flop all he wants at this point. Flip-flopping has become, “There goes Mitt, again,” shrug-worthy.

Romney will flip and flop every time he feels the breath of a Democrat newsroom on his neck. The thing is, he will never end up the right.

RINO rule #1: Run to the right, and govern from the left.

No one in their right mind would be convinced by Gerson’s argument.

The one argument for Romney that actually works with conservatives is that he’d be a better President than our current incumbent by a country mile.

Well, let's think this through...

Whomever is President in 2013 is going to be dealing with a heavily Republican Congress, in both the House and Senate. Given that, which choice, Romney or Obama, will lead to the worse result?

Every Republican in Congress will know that siding with Obama on anything will be political suicide. Obama's policies have failed so spectacularly that nobody will want to hop aboard that train.

Romney, on the other hand, will be able to peel off "centrist" Republicans and partner with Democrats to form a center/left coalition and pass much of the Democrat agenda. Romney has shown, time and time again, that this is his tendency when he is in a position of power. He will feel the need to "do something", and everything he does will be another might-as-well-be-Democrat boondoggle.

Nobody enacts the Democrat agenda more effectively than a RINO. So if it comes down to Romney vs. Obama, I am going to vote for Obama. Better gridlock.

Better still to choose a better nominee, so it won't come to that...

Never mind that he’s a hypocrite, a supporter of gay “marriage” and abortion on demand, and that great program, RomneyCare.

He’s a POS.
