Demos launch attack on Romney
624 comments | Read story
The best comment is 'we have to look at what he has done and not what he has said.' Bravo, I agree 100% and if that is truly done, Romney outshines any of these critics. Romney needs some help on responding to the attacks of flip-flopping. He isn't nearly as bad as 99% of the congress and senate, but for some reason, he doesn't combat it well and therefore he is a prime target for such attacks.
I, for one, hope Romney isn't the VP pick, because McCain makes me sick with his politics and believe he'll the lose the presidency. Thus leaving a door open in four years for Romney to win the Republican nomination and defeat the incumbent Obama whose 4 years will have been a farce.
The day a gay, leftist Democrat says something nice about straight, rightist Republican Mitt will really be news.
Stinging, inconsistent attacks that lack any credibility because of their source. lol
"God hasn't spoken to man since Moses," when this clearly contradicts LDS dogma.
Gov. Romney has taken stands on positions while a candidate for president, therefore, he becomes a target for democrats because, 1) he is right and 2) he proposes actions and bring solutions to the table.
The American people will see this and understand. There is no wonder why the approval rating of the democrat lead congress is near single digits. As they continue to point fingers and continue to be obstacles and create problems, in order to get headlines, rather than bring solutions, they will continue to falter.

Flip floppers may be only right half the time - but ideologs are often wrong all the time
The way the DNC has now raised their game in their all-out ATTACK against Romney just confirms to me that I am "right on". Romney/McCain can win!! GO "MCCAIN/ROMNEY'08"! :)
Understand for myself what they really mean.
Gather unbiased information freely.
Decide for myself who we really need.
This has been one of the most atrocious election years ever -- all we have been fed is sound bites and unsound opinions -- from all sides.
Oh how I long for the days when you could meet a candidate, look him in the eye, feel his grip, and know from personal experience if he was what he said he was.
Outside of what is illegal I don't care what politicians do as long as they stick to the plan I elected them for far too often our politicians think they get 4 years between acountability then the lies come out again I can't hardly stand it. At least Mitt is saying what he will do to represent me I like that it means he get's me enough said
I think it's funny that Barney Frank would take pot-shots at Romney. Frank says money losing businesses like Ford should be able to own banks with access to deposit insurance, but profitable enterprises like Home Depot should not. This is the same Barney Frank whose staffer was running a male prostitution ring out of Frank's DC condo.

And Woodward's comment is hysterical: "Look at this guy's track record. Look what he's actually done, not what he says...." Better hope that test isn't applied to Senator Obama. LOL
Obama will be the next president although I won't be voting for Obama or McCain.
Obama would be a disaster as president.
Please John McCain, choose him!!!!!!!!
Plez!!!!!!!!!!!!
About Romney, Woodward said, "We need to actually make sure we're informing the public. Look at this guy's track record. Look what he's actually done, not what he says, because he clearly can't maintain the position for more than a couple sound bites."
Sounds like he's talking about his own candidate for President.
What has Obama DONE? What is his TRACK RECORD?
If I were a Democrat I would attack him too.
Nobody is as arrogant as the Democrats. They think they have a right to choose the Republican leadership.
They tried to get rid of Ed Meese under Reagan.
They got rid of Newt Gingrich (although Gingrich helped it along with his affair).
They tried to get rid of Carl Rove.
Now they are trying to pick McCain's running mate.
Democrats hate effective Republicans. If they were not effective the Dems would promote them.
"I'm curious how Romney will explain:
"God hasn't spoken to man since Moses," when this clearly contradicts LDS dogma."
As a Mormon I would never vote for Romney because he's a liar, lacks integrity and constantly changes positions to suit the target voting block.
Romney has no shame. He denies that God has spoken to Joseph Smith and speaks to Latter-day prophets and still claims to be a Mormon to gain the support of Mormons while denying Joseph Smith to appease the evangelicals.
Other examples of Romney lies include the time he said he SAW his father march with Martin Luther King only to retract and say that it was a "figure of speech" and he meant he was alive at the time.
Then we receive reports that prior to saying he saw his father march with MLK he was telling people that he and his father marched with Martin Luther King. I guess it was a figure of speech too and Mitt Romney was ONLY alive at the time King marched.
Either way I would never vote for him since he's a lying flip-flopper who uses the Church as a way to get votes.
Thanks for the ringing endorsement of John McCain. I hope he chooses Romney as Vice President so Mitt can explain to us how McCain is the wrong man to lead the U.S. Now Romney is campaigning for McCain even though we all know how he believes he lacks any leadership ability and doesn't know anything about the economy.
Now there's a dream team.
Right up there with Cheney and Bush.
"I've always wanted Romney as McCain's running mate and believe that would be a very strong ticket that will win the election."
This doesn't make a lot of sense. Romney has one of the worst records and would be a liability to McCain yet you want him to be McCain's running mate.
"The way the DNC has now raised their game in their all-out ATTACK against Romney just confirms to me that I am "right on". Romney/McCain can win!! GO "MCCAIN/ROMNEY'08"! :)
There are 8 others on the website, and Romney was the last to be added, and they discuss how each of them would be a poor choice for Vice President and would just be another replacement for Dick Cheney. So his FINALLY being added doesn't seem to support your argument that Romney's the best choice because Democrats are going "all-out" since they went all out on the others first which LOGICALLY means they would be the stronger candidates by your argument.
I suggest you get your facts straight before posting because you are making yourself look stupid.
There are numerous choices and yet McCain's list includes some of the worst demonstrating lack of judgment.
There's dissent in the ranks. Huckabee and co. are also campaigning against Romney. Huckabee claims it's not about religion; personally, I think it has everything to do with religion. A huge percentage of the religious right just doesn't like Mormons.
