Lie, Spend $$$, and Exploit the uninformed....

This is how you win a presidential primary in Michigan.

Romney claims victory in Michigan

Romney attacked McCain for being realistic, and apparently it worked. Unfortunately for Michigan, Mitt won't even take the time to spit on the state that may have saved, and may ultimately make him the GOP candidate. He'll speed out of there as fast as he can and he won't look back. Mitt Romney an accomplished business man knows better than to fill the heads of blue collar workers with the nonsense of a rejuvenated industrial revolution in America's heartland. He knows that unless there are dramatic upheavals in the world economy, that such a scenario WILL NOT happen in our lifetime, let alone the next 4 years. The path forward to revive the Michigan economy will be rocky, and will be done through better education, and nothing else. The days of the well paid assembly line worker are gone forever.

But alas, Romney is a soul-less opportunist.

McCain had the honesty to speak realistically, and the ignorant people of Michigan punished him (and the rest of us) for it. I've got to say, I believe the home turf advantage gave Romney an edge. I hate to say it, but in this case McCain gave the people of Michigan more credit than they deserved.

McCain's right about Michigan

Experts back up McCain's jobs claim

I'm sick and tired of this smirking, lying, creep that Romney is. I just don't get why people buy into him. My simple guess is that he is young looking and handsome by comparison to other GOP candidates, and that it somehow makes him more presidential. Arguably this usually wins the election, almost always. Picking a president for the average American isn't all that different from choosing their American Idol.

Romney has THE WORST big government record of any of these candidates... his social issues are a joke because he is just going to say and do what his constituency wants, even when it opposes previous positions that he had. Romney created a state mandated health care program in Massachusetts that FINES people who don't have health care, and promotes a state run (money pit) subsidized program. Our budget has been in the red since he left office largely due to this debacle, and it only stands to get worse. REPUBLICAN CANDIDATES ARE SUPPOSED TO FIGHT THIS CRAP NOT SUPPORT IT! People call Huckabee fiscally liberal, but honestly even he has a fiscal conservative record next to Romney's. If you vote for Romney you might as well just vote for Hillary Clinton because that's who you'll be putting into office. After all, her new health care plan IS ROMNEY'S!! Even Barack Obama knows better than to mandate health care! And if Romney somehow wins..... he'll be just as bad if not worse than Hillary. It will basically all the joys of George W. Bush, with another giant failing bureaucracy added on top! Hillary & Romney are two people who want the same thing and will do anything to achieve it. Power. The presidency is nothing more than a trophy for them.
