Give Romney credit for this. He is good at what he does. He does takeovers. Workers learned this the hard way when Romney ran Bain. Conservatives will learn the hard way once Romney is nominated, if he is.

He told gays and abortionists in 2002 that he wanted to moderate the GOP. He meant it.

Where did they get the idea Mitt is fooling Conservatives? That is utterly stupid. He’s got his 20% and that’s it.

This article didn’t deserve a barf alert. The author - a conservative - has illustrated what Romney is setting out to do.
To Slick Willard, conservatives are disposable. And we have no assurance that if elected, he would govern as a conservative President.
Mittens is too big a risk to the conservative movement to gamble on his fidelity.
We have been duly warned.

This wins the award for the stupidest thing I read this week. The writer must have just come from an Occupy meeting and hit the peace pipe a little to hard. Geez.

Why diss him?
He is right about Romney’s strategy. He’s out to sucker conservatives.
And then fire them the first chance he gets.
No one on our side should be a streetwalker for Mittens.
That says it all.

He is secretly Pro abortion,pro same sex marriage, pro embryonic stem cell research. If you really want to hear more about Mitt Romney, read: “Can Mitt Romney Serve Two Masters?” This guy will say anything to get votes!
The book tells the entire story of his pre-political and his political careers. He is as dangerous as Barack! But don’t take my word for it. Vet the guy, there is too much to lose to vote blindly!

If conservatives are that stupid to drop their principles and core convictions to service Pimp Romney, they shouldn’t complain when he sells them out later.

First off, a hostile take over of the Right by this boob is a joke. Flat in the polls Mittens at 25% says all you need to know about this so called take over. It ain’t happening, so why write like it is. Then the whole thing comparing Mittens strategery to that of his Bain days is strained. It was just plain odd and I stand by that impression. I don’t care what the writers intention was, it was lost on me.

That is exactly what Romney trying to do. To take over GOP without conservatives’ blessings. In a hostile takeover, you don’t need friends, just convenient tools. And Mittens is no dummy when it comes to engineering a takeover.

I have not been taken over, hostilely or otherwise.
And I would vote for Ubama before I would vote for Myth.
At least Ubama would be gridlocked.

Take over. Mitt keeps writing the checks and they endorse. Real simple.

Ping. It’s part of the Romney “inevitability” campaign. We can’t beat it so we might as well join it.
There are two other guys trying to fool conservatives—Perry and Gingrich.
Sorry. No sale.
