“Her positions are not terribly relevant for my campaign” (Romney, speaking of his wife in 07)

Interesting comment, since he's pretending to defend his wife in 2012.

This article is from 2007 and illustrates the sort of chameleons these two a-holes are.

http://thecaucus.blogs.nytimes.com/2007/05/09/ann-romneys-planned-parenthood-donation/

Mitt Romney’s campaign confirmed to ABC News today that his wife, Ann Romney, donated $150 to Planned Parenthood in 1994.... the day before Mr. Romney is scheduled to receive a “Political Leadership Award” form Massachusetts Citizens for Life.

He pointed out that today his wife is co-chairman of Massachusetts Citizens for Life...

The donations illustrate the difficult transitions for Republican politicians trying to win their party’s presidential nomination after a career of appealing to liberal voters.

“I’m not trying to have it both ways,” he said. “I was effectively pro-choice. And now I’m pro-life"


Well well well, Romney the chameleon apparently switches his opinions more often than he changes his underpants. Same applies to his wife, Ms. Moneybags.

A 20 point difference in women preferring the policies of Obama over Romney.

Boo-yah!

Very interesting.
But, I think he won't be the veep that Romney wants to campaign with.
Because it won't be a balanced ticket.

Get it, balanced ticket?
Oh, forget it.

not your the OP, but to this garbage. Who really gives a shit what she says? It's all a distraction. The guy is a corporate fascist, and his wife is a fucking diversion from what Romney would do to this country if he were elected. He so fucked up that he probably makes himself believe what he does is a good thing for the country as a whole. But isn't that what insane people do... rationalize their insanity?

Ms. Rmoneybags is a distraction. She's pointless and contributes nothing good to mankind, just like her idiot husband. They only do harm.
