This is Mitt Romney at a press conference during his 1994 U.S. Senate campaign, answering a question about lobbyists and the influence of money in politics.

It’s bad enough that Romneycare inspired Obamacare. Now it appears that Mittens helped lay the groundwork (at least rhetorically) for what would eventually become the McCain-Feingold bill – an utter failure that was ruled mostly unconstitutional by the Supreme Court in 2010.

And remember, this is one of the two most conservative candidates in the GOP field, supposedly.

Here I thought McCain was the most RINO candidate I've ever seen...

I wouldn't worry too awfully much about that PPP, http://unlikelyvoter.com/2011/12/19/debunking-ppp-in-iowa/

Its reliability and accuracy are highly suspect.

Stranger than fiction:

Gingrich received 31% support, followed by Bachmann at 28%, and Romney at 20%. Sixteen percent of participants voted for Santorum, 3% selected Texas Rep. Ron Paul, and less than one percent chose Huntsman.~ Tea Party Patriots Poll; http://politicalticker.blogs.cnn.com/2011/12/19/gingrich-wins-tea-party-patriots-straw-poll/

Being as the above link is CNN, here is another story on this:

You're supporting the destruction of the party and the country if you support him.

I will not support Romney under any circumstances.

I know, he's crazy. But it would be nice to see $1,000,000,000,000.00 in spending cuts in a year. Nobody else is talking that kind of crazy talk. Too bad he's also apparently a racist. Umm, nobody's perfect?... You're right, where's my straight jacket...
