If Willard thinks this last week was tough, he better pull up his big boy panties & buckle his seat belt!

I have seen plastic potted plants which look more authentic then Willard does...

Gonna be hard for him to pass the *sniff* test with these die hard conservatives! ;o)

Romney's CPAC speech was inspiring. Independents like myself are watching him and WILL vote for him. Obama has destroyed our economy by increasing our debt by 50%, no budgets for THREE years, FUDGED the numbers about unemployment, inflation, and jobs"saved". All these people do is spend money we don't have (up to $1.40 spent for every dollar earned).

America has officially hit 100% of debt to GDP, that's in the same category as Greece, Portugal, and Ireland. If Obama is reelected, America's debt is on track to reach $24 TRILLION at the end of his second term and we WILL face a Greece type wall. I almost don't want Romney to win because all the libtards will then blame him for him for "economic destruction" that Obama is already causing.

you slipped up when you referred to Democrats as "libtards." No Independent uses that term. You are a right-wing nut.

Not only a right wing nut, but a comment spammer who is spreading his 'seed' all over the place!

@Amy - Yeah, I'm a "right-wing nut" that supports the Dream Act, eliminating the Bush tax cuts (for all levels), cutting the military, against Iraq/Afghanistan wars, against big oil (no keystone pipeline), and for cap n trade. Although, I also support traditional marriage and am against global warming. Yeah, you libtards keep it up to show how idiotic you look supporting a president who is financially out of control and will cause the downfall of the dollar and America if he's elected to a second term.

RationalOne-674831 - you are only Rational in your own mind. And, all the figures in your post are made up - I'm guessing by you. When someone has to just spout lie after lie after lie - they are impressing no one but themselves. And, I love how you resort to 1st grade name calling. Makes your posts compelte! Complete nonsense!

You are NO Independent and - just for clarity - no true Independent is impressed by Romney. We just gag at the sight of him!

Romney called himself "severely conservative" in front of CPAC today. I wonder if he will call himself "severely moderate" in front of the crowd in Portland, Me tonight?

(I'll let you know tomorrow! He's right down the street from where I work right now:)

No only did Romney lost 3 contests this week--turnout was down and he had less votes than before. Now that's a tough week.

Obama effectively lost the fall election this week with his incredible botched mandate on contraceptives....I would say he had a worse week.

Course you moonbats are Obama spambot zombies and wouldnt know it

    Obama team MSNBC coverage of the controversial contraceptive rule:

    1) announce policy , with spin about how wonderful it was for their hero Obama

    2) Totally ignore the outcry and opposition, no coverage at all for a week!

    3) Mention the issue briefly , but classify opposition as limited to the "Catholic Church and conservative Republicans" (totally untrue)....then Chuck Todd gives the spin that it isnt that important in the big picture

    4) cover Obama's compromise as a brilliant political move to lessen the controversy (of course, if your news source is MSNBC, you wonder what controversy they're referring to)

    "Romulian Romney's" economic policies are "Lost At Sea," and his Super PAC is full of "Political Crap!" That is fact! The biggest issues facing our nation are economic. NOT CONTRACEPTION! Again! This is fact!
