Romney Continues to Burnish His Conservative Credentials

[○∙◄☻¥tπ[╪AV┼cVê└]

He would be a great, conservative POTUS much like Eisenhower, for example.

LOL at the idea of Romney warning us of the evils of the military-industrial complex.

[Lincoln Republican]

Romney as President would never have allowed the fiscal mess that Obama and Congress have created.

lol... allowed. He would have been their bitch and you know it.

[Lincoln Republican]

The thing is, you see, Obama has no respect from the Republican H/R, and for good reason.

They would work with Romney to solve this fiscal mess.

[Warren 4 Secretary of Everything]

They wouldn't respect Mitt either. And Democrats sure as hell wouldn't respect him.

Yes... how dare he win an election!

[Niemeyerite]

Romney will have been out of office for 10 years in 2016 + He's lost twice in a row + Republicans don't like him after his loss + 47% + 69 years old when he takes office (almost 70) = the best candidate for democrats to keep the White House !!!!

[JQ]

House Republicans are to blame for about 99.9% of the budget BS going on in this country atm. They've done nothing but whine, obstruct Obama's agenda, whine, obstruct Obama's agenda, whine...everything but act like adults and attempt to compromise with the White House. They're one of the biggest reasons the GOP/Romney couldn't get their crap together in 2012 (a la 1996--the '95-'96 shutdown was a creation of the GOP Congress).

As for Romney 2016? Please. The man is the definition of failure.

[MASHED POTATOES. VOTE!]

The best thing Mittens can do for the Republican Party is to spend the rest of his life as a hermit.

[Lincoln Republican]

I detect an extreme amount of malevolence, envy, and resentment over the success Romney has achieved in life.

I dare say Mitt Romney has achieved more success in one year than most members of this forum are likely to achieve in a lifetime.  Just sayin'.

Will Romney ever run for anything again?  Of course not.

I know I've always aspired to lose a presidential election.

What has Mitt Romney achieved exactly? Financial success? If that's it, then he really hasn't achieved much...

If he had founded a software company, a cruse line, or a trendy retailer as a model of economic success instead of being a vulture capitalist we wouldn't have the resentment. His sort of capitalism causes at least as much harm to those who work for the company that he takes over as good. He is better described as an out-sourcer or a job-cutter than a "job creator". Contrast the image that Ross Perot created.  

If he had stayed out of Presidential politics this would be largely unknown.

Bernie Madoff and Alan Stanford had some very good years, too.

He has been exposed. Say what you want, but the derogatory stuff about Mitt Romney is far more genuine than the smears against Barack Obama. He ran on the promise that his acumen as a businessman would solve a budgetary mess in the Federal government. Such came with too high a price tag for most of us.  

[Lincoln Republican]

Financial success is simply one aspect of Romney's life.

His greatest legacy is his family.

I've outperformed my father while Mitt is no more successful than George. When comparing situations, I feel quite alright with how I've turned out.

The can't smoke, can't drink and can't even f*** (if their purpouse isn't having a child) because that's sinning for mormons. What a success! They may have money, but there are many things I do that they can't

BTW, I don't smoke. But it's better than losing an election for the second time in a row.

Mitt actually overperformer his dad by becoming the nominee. George never had this opportunity to fail in national election./

No. While Taft was more conservative than Eisenhower, Ike was not the underling of Dewey as he is sometimes portrayed. The difference was that Taft wanted to rollback the New Deal, which was obviously politically impossible. Eisenhower was content to leave the New Deal together while he focused on foreign affairs, but he resisted LBJ's attempts to expand it numerous times.

So he's a conservative that didn't really do much of anything conservative in his eight years in office. Gotcha.

He was a moderate then and he's very moderate now. He certainly wasn't conservative.

Opposing progressive legislation is not conservative? This is the same Eisenhower who warned of "creeping socialism" during his campaign. Is the only way to be conservative to roll back the New Deal? Then I'm sure you will happily accept George Bush and Richard Nixon into the liberal ranks.

That Eisenhower did not accomplish during his presidency what are "conservative goals" does not mean anything. He was content with running foreign policy and what little oversight he did give over domestic issues was mostly concerned with heading off LBJ.

Sorry man, building roads is not just a liberal position.

LOL. Name some conservative things Eisenhower actually did, please. The Southern Manifesto of all things was written during his presidency, not a liberal Democrat's.

Eisenhower was a moderate who entered the race after fellow moderates begged for him to stop Taft. He wasn't a liberal like Dewey and Rockefeller, but Ike was far closer to them than Robert Taft (a real conservative).

My friend, you are so misinformed it is truly sad.

They can't smoke?  What, and get lung cancer?

They can't drink?  What, and become alcoholics and lose their jobs, their families, and develop liver disease?

True, they do not smoke or drink, however, they are free to indulge in these vices if they so choose.  They have chosen, however, to follow the right path, and avoid these addictive and harmful substances.

And in case you are not aware, sexual intimacy between a couple is an important part of a relationship, and not simply for the purpose of conceiving a baby.  Please contact your nearest therapist.  They will be able to further explain this to you.

You forgot to expound on the evils of coffee and colored folk.

So you believe that colored folk , to use your words, are evil.  I certainly do not believe that, but you evidently do.

After all, you just said You forgot to expound on the evils of .......... colored folk.

Shame on you.

I'd like to think this is sarcasm in reply to my sarcasm. Or at least, I sure hope that's what it is.

[Niemeyerite]

Of course Mormons have sex (many don't), but some (almost all) of them believe it's not good.

You don't get lung cancer if you smoke. It can happen, but it can not happen, too

BTW, many people drink and only a small minority lose their jobs, their families, and develop liver disease. Maybe it's your case, but it's not usual, you see.

Not to talk about coffee, of course.

Even vegans have a better life than a millionaire Mormon!
