Very impressive.

I think that "Romney" will become a synonym for committing political suicide. E.g., "Scott Brown Romneyed himself last week when he claimed the ability to discern heritage by glancing at people."

Greg Mitchell ?@GregMitch

How could that be? After all, the MSM things he is such a nice young man, and he brought his mother to the AARP convention.

These Republicans are really dipshits. They started running on the idea of killing "Obamacare". If they would have stuck with that, maybe they would have been successful. But they just couldn't help themselves. They had to go 10 bridges to far.
