as is should be.
I found that remark weak, flat, insulting and condescending as anything I have heard in a while from a politician.
Again, I applaud the efforts of Operation Hilarity which did help to "jump start" the seriousness that we know is Rick Santorum.
While the Dixie South, in all its backwardness and ignorance did accomplish one thing, they refuted a phony coming into their back yard.
And refuted him soundly.
Next stop for the Mittster is my stomping ground, Land of Lincoln, Illinois.
And while Illinois is known for moderate Republicans, it is the counties OUTSIDE of the Chicago area that the Mittster should be concerned with.
Republican presidential front-runner Mitt Romney's campaign has long considered Illinois to be in its win column, but a new Chicago Tribune/WGN-TV poll shows the candidate has some work to do to make that a reality.
The survey found Romney slightly ahead of Rick Santorum, 35% to 31% — within the poll's 4-percentage-point margin of error. Trailing far behind were Newt Gingrich with 12% and Texas Rep. Ron Paul with 7%. Another 16% were undecided.
Yes, Illinois (and we are never in a really heated contest) will be inundated with those
Mitt Romney Super Pac Ads. Which means, I will watch MORE CABLE.
Republican presidential candidate Mitt Romney might not be campaigning in Illinois until Monday, but he's poised to saturate the state's airwaves during the final week before the Illinois primary.
The contender and a political action committee backing his candidacy have poured in another $1.35 million into Chicago's TV ad market, sources familiar with the buy said Tuesday.
All told, the former Massachusetts governor and his allies have spent $2.26 million on television commercials in Illinois, with more than $1.7 million of that coming from the Restore Our Future super PAC.
Illinois should be a NON-ISSUE for Romney, but the look of the ad buy states other stuff, primarily that he has not been able to slam the door on Santorum or even Gingrich. And it does show how weak a candidate Mitt Romney really is.
I don't like any of them, but at least I would know what I would get with Gingrich, Santorum or Paul. Romney? That is his main problem, his whole candidacy is clouded with a big question mark of who he really is.
As my mama always told me, "when you make your bed, you gotta lye in it". That is what Romney is doing right now and not liking the outcome.
