How Does Romney Keep Winning?

I am losing faith faster and faster in this country. A quick check on his campaign shows that most of the time the claims he is making are lies.

Dat hair.

Because he is the lesser of several evils? I dunno...

He clearly has no heart.

***, even Fox News Agrees.

I work for a pet-related business and I can't see how anyone would find him to be the lesser of several evils. I'm even calling myself crazy saying this, but I would say Gingrich would be the least evil between Perry, Santorum and Romney. Because at least he doesn't play himself off as a false christian prophet. Cheating on your wife while she's in the hospital? Meh. people do that all the time! >_>

Interesting articles. I wasn't aware of that.

Clearly, each of these candidates have very well documented evils. Some more then others. They are either synthetic like Romney, hyperbolic like Gingrich, or just plain insane like Perry/Santorum.

To be honest, I don't see any of these Republicans ousting Obama in the General.

boohoo a dog rode on a roof, dogs love that ***...

I'm more concerned with those who let dogs ride lose in their vehicle, this just isn't safe.

I'm also more concerned with Romney changing his mind on everything he used to "support" I could have got behind him awhile back but not now...

Republicans haven't had any decent candidates in several Presidential elections, they're scraping the barrel.

People in our country have become so partisan that the parties will vote for just about anyone to spite the other side. It's stopped being about voting for people with skills or leadership talent and all about voting whoever the media pushes.

Romney is the only candidate the Republican party sees standing a chance of winning so most people will begrudgingly vote for him even if he comes off as a phony who has no idea how normal people live. The lies are worth eating just to oust Obama and to hell with where the country goes after that is the strategy of many voters right now.

Perry is a fool for having hung on so long when it's obvious his supporters have abandoned ship, Santorum is great at energizing his base but has no general election pull and Gingrich is so mad that his front-runner status was defeated by the power of underhanded tactics that it seems all that matters to him now is damaging Romney to fix his bruised ego. Ron Paul? While the youth may back him, he knows as well as the rest he stands no chance of getting the Republican nod and that a 3rd party run would spite Romney into an instant loss, ruin his son's political career and gain him the ire of the entire Republican party.

Wanna see people mad? Have Ron Paul run as a 3rd party spoiler and listen to talk radio after that fact.

On Romneys flipflopping? He's pandering to the Republican base that wants to hear certain things and well.. he's going to tell them what they want to hear. If he did win the presidency he's shifting left into moderateville and you'll hear conservative voters bitter at the fact that he did this the entire 4 years.

Many conservatives know this already but they're out of cards to play. The other candidates are just that poor a lot.

yeah our only hope is that Obama grows a set this time

At least you can get the rest of the family to secure the dogs from the driver's seat. Also, I would imagine they make safety nets that go between the front and back seats nowadays to keep the dogs from distracting the driver.

Fox news really isn't a good thing to bring up in any argument.. Just saying.

As for the OP, the fact that Perry even made it this far, and could actually become president (theoretically) made me lose faith in humanity, or more accurately, our country. I don't even know how he made it to Governor..

to the first part: no, when I mean lose I mean lose...

and ha on the second

I know, but the idea that they could agree with most sane people on something struck me as interesting, to say the least.

Personally, I would give anything to see Romney go down in black flames.

Bah, I must've skimmed over that. Yeah, I would only put them inside the car where they can feel safer in a crate. Worst case scenario you would only lose luggage

My point is more or less, that they aren't a reliable unbiased new source.. I mean they're bound to agree with rational thinking people once in awhile.. But their history kinda destroys any real credit they could ever receive..

I mean it's just my opinion, but I'd never quote Fox news in any argument, well I mean unless I was using them as an example of why you should never listen to mainstream news and why you should form your own opinions..

In reality, Ron Paul is winning, however no one in the Republican national convention likes him, nor does the media... so they make it seem like Romney is winning instead

Yeah don't get me wrong Slip, I'm all against Fox News and what they stand for. I don't even watch news on TV that much, as I rely on the internet to get up-to-date info. And you are right, I probably shouldn't have referred to them as an example.

I'm only saying, if an establishment like them even sees something on agreeable terms most rational people condemn, there's definitely a problem on both ends of the spectrum, no matter how you slice it. Everyone knows not to treat their animals like ***. It's just common sense coming into play here.

I want Paul to win as much as I want Clinton back. I've just kinda given up on that though..

Clinton 2012!

sarcastic?

Nope.. I liked Clinton.. I *** hated Bush and I'm not exactly happy with Obama.. Clinton was the only president in my life thus far that I've been like "He was/is a good president".

I think Obama is making the best of a bad situation, but I can't help feel (even though I know better, logically) that he's not fixing things fast enough or well enough..

Some of the deuces Clinton dropped would probably have made a better president than Bush.

EDIT: Bush couldn't even read the teleprompter well.. He couldn't collect his damned thoughts well enough to read what was wrote for him.. Somehow, we gave him leadership of the country.. If you're going to make decisions for the entire country, you damn well better be able to read at a third grade level.

didn't he graduate from yale or something?

Harvard and Yale I believe.. I'm not sure how though, unless he just slipped by or his professors were paid off. I'd of sent him back to the first grade..

his daddy paid for the graduation

I've lost 100% of my "faith" in this country when I saw the NDAA bill. I mean we really don't have any rights anymore if they say "he/she is bad" and then goes /locks up and or kills. All it takes is some nut job to do stupid stuff like this and with the NDAA they can do anything they want to you using the law lol.

let's face it no one looks all that great for this coming year.(when do they?) So how long till people are getting rounded up in this country(for god knows what reason) is my question.

/sigh that bill grants no such power, go read...

thank god . . .

Vermin Supreme for 2012!

Well don't get ahead of yourself.. I wouldn't really be surprised to find out if/when they do implement something like what everyone feared the NDAA would be, in the near future (5-10 years?) I mean we're already on the verge of it as is..

Kinda funny though, I remember awhile back we had to go on living our lives normally otherwise 'the terrorists win' and now look at this country.. Can't take *** cup cakes or purses with an emblem of a gun on a plane.. I'd say the terrorists are winning.. They're doing exactly what they wanted to, strike fear and terror into the heart of America (and a lot of countries..)

Not to mention every drunk and belligerent passenger is now a front page story.. "We had to divert because some guy was drunk and couldn't get an extra pillow, so he became belligerent.. He was one step away from busting his way into the flight deck and assaulting the captain with a pair of nail clippers.. It was practically a terrorist attack"..

GTFO my news with that ***..
