2010 & 2012

We can only hope that the Republicans can get enough seats in the 2010 elections to re-take the house, stop the Obama drive to socialism and then win the White House in 2012 and go to work to correct the damage Obama has done! For example, one need to look no further than the recent escapades at the UN! Shameful...down right shameful!

Abroad

You gotta hand it to him. He knows how to raise money.

Mitt,

Please help us get Obama out. That socialist is ruining our country.

What?

"Mitt Romney appreciates the support, and the money raised will allow him to stay active politically...."

Is Mitt Romney worth $150 MILLION or not?

Romney will never win so why is Utah still so enamored by everything Romney?

Impressive

I had the priviledge of attending last night and I came away very impressed. Mitt has surrounded himself with a very good team of highly qualified, intelligent, high level of integrity, passionate group.
Unlike our current Communist President who has a bunch of tax evaders, terrorists, america haters on his payroll.

Go Mitt you have my vote in 2012

Future Forecast

I noticed that the event, normally held in the larger Ballrooms of the Grand America Hotel to the smaller 1/3 of the Ballroom at Little America Hotel. One can only hope that support and money is waning.

Chris B.

Well said!!!!

Supporter

Romney! Enough said. I support him big time

ANSWERS

The RE-PUBLI/CONS have all the answers but are waiting to get back in POWER before they bestow their solutions upon the rest of us mere mortals.

Didn't these guys have all the answers, not to mention control of the White House, Senate and House for 6 years?

And we are going to trust them...

Again?

YIKES!

Republicans blew it by not choosing Romney (because of his particular religion), and as a result, the party is falling apart. Glenn Beck is starting a movement that will eventually culminate in a much larger group of people that don't wish to belong to ANY party- and a lot of these people are coming from the Republican Party- like me and my family and friends.

I'm Shocked

I'm shocked Mitt was able to raise so much money in Utah given how unpopular he is with Utahns.

Your R Just Fooling Yourselves

$125,000 is a pretty paltry sum, given that he was preaching to the Utah choir. Has he run out of steam? Also, won't he be as old as McCain was next time he runs.

Mitt uses the same game theory as a panhandler uses. If you want a panhandler to return you give him your money. They same works for Mitt.

Age

McCain is 11 years older than Romney.

Raise cash-yes/get elected-no

The Republicans are letting Romney raise as much cash as possible before they dump him like they always do.

He can raise money, but he will never be accepted enough to be elected.

Romneycare

Let me get this straight... you want to elect Mitt Romney to undo the "damage" done by Obama. The "damage" being health care reform, which is essentially the health care reform of Massachussetts which was signed into law by then-governor Mitt Romney.

That should be an interesting debate.

congrats Mitt

The naysayers are tedious

Dear Johanan

What did you think of Beck's show yesterday, when he said Obama shouldn't campaign for Chicago Olympics in 2016, because the the Vancouver BC Olympics had lost a billion dollars?

How come no one else is as smart as Glenn Beck?

Does that make Obama look stupid or what?

linguini backbone

Mitt's backbone is less sturdy than wet lingiuni. Is Utah too blind to see that this man has 0% political ideals. This is the same guy who FORCED all Massachussets to get medical insurance...the same thing Republicans are complaining about now. As Andrew Aullivan so appropriately coined, " a hollow shell of cynicism and salesmanship". For real principles relating to limited governemnt and conservative ideals, look at Ron Paul.
