I suppose if you want something bad enough, you’ll do anything to get it. Except for Ron Paul, that about sums up the GOP field’s quest for their party’s nomination. Newt does well attacking Obama but cannot or will not limit his fire in that direction. Just yesterday he sniped at Romney for being too rich to care about what gas costs. First off that is just a BS argument best used by some lefty. Next, Romney has probably given more money away than Newt has made in his lifetime so he must have some compassion for the poor and needy. Last, Newt, when you make these unscripted comments you sound like a petty, envious jackass. You have made them so often that I’m pretty sure that that is exactly what you are. Besides, you are no pauper yourself. I’m sure you could sustain your lifestyle if gas got to $6 a gallon. Were Romney’s staff a bunch of bitter whiners like Newt, they come up with a line for Newt like, “Newt’s too worried about the cost of diamonds at Tiffany’s to care about the cost of gas.”
Santorum cannot help himself either. He is constantly whining about Romney’s money. Get over it Rick. Romney has the money because he has support. In several posts under, Lex lifted data from a Real Clear Politics graph to demonstrate that Romney has had steady support since the beginning of the process. Gain support and you’ll get money. You sound like some crummy small time college, let’s say Meatchicken (aka Michigan), whining because all the good athletes want play in the SEC. STFU, win some games and eventually they may want to play at your second rate BS university. I suggest that at some point you lose the sweater vest. It worked for Jim Tressel for a while, then he crashed and burned – big time.
Romney is the only one of the three that can be counted upon not to be bitching and whining like a cut dog about the other two. Throughout the process he’s had a smile on his face while he shoves the shive into an opponent’s back. He didn’t complain as one by one the “not Romney” flavor of the month rose to the top. He just used his resources to go about regaining the upper hand. His two chief rivals think this is unfair, even though they have both done the exact same thing within their own more limited resources.
Let’s just stipulate that Romney is a rich guy. He probably hangs out with other rich guys. He’s unlikely to show up at my compound and spend an evening drinking beer and pitching washers in the barn. I'm not sure I want a guy who thinks that that is time well spent as president anyway. But I am sure I do not want another ruling class career politician that is represented by Santorum, Gingrich and Paul as president. I want a guy who knows business, knows how to pick other good outside talent. I do not care what he did in MA with Romneycare. He has said 10,000,000 times, he’d repeal P-BOcare. That’s good enough for me. He has a plan to cut taxes, reinvest in the military and has condemned the P-BO’s overreach into the religious sector with enough vigor for me.
As smooth as he is, Romney is prone to the political gaff – my wife drives a couple of Cadillacs, probably because he’s not a career politician. And that Mr. & Mrs. America is the main point. He is not the most conservative. I am, but he is the most qualified to begin to get things turned around. That alone will be a daunting task. Newt will be mired in battles over funding for his moon colony 10 days into his administration. Santorum will also be locked in unnecessary battles early on and look whinny doing it. Romney will focus on the fire closest to his feet and get things done. He needs a good, strong, young conservative to balance the ticket and pick up the torch in 2020. Romney/Rubio.
