Romney: End of the road

Romney’s five-day bus tour ends today with stops in his native state of Michigan.

“Mitt Romney has been criss-crossing Midwestern swing states over the past few days as part of an expansive bus tour through Middle America, but on Monday the presumptive Republican nominee found himself on a boat,” The Hill writes. “Romney held a campaign event Monday afternoon on the ‘Spirit of Dubuque,’ a Mississippi River boat that provides tours of the Iowa border town.”

“The Mitt Romney campaign continued to turn President Obama’s words against him Monday in a new Web video that shows a confident Obama accepting responsibility for the state of the US economy,” the Boston Globe writes.

All five of Romney’s sons will be on Conan tomorrow night.

Discuss this post

Another campaign tour telling the same old worn out lies. Will the media ever call Romney out for all his lies? Or will they just keep ignoring the lies so they can keep getting his campaign ad money. I would guess the latter.

I want to know where they are taking these polls at, and why haven't I been able to vote in any of the presidential polls, so who is voting on them, and is the media being one sided! I don't care how much mitt raises, I will STILL vote for OBAMA, for he is not an "OUTSOURCER,' "KNOWS that HEALTHCARE is very IMPORTANT to the ppl who don't have it, and who are ALL the democrats that are against it, I didn't see that poll either. "OBAMA" signed the "GAY RIGHTS BILL" he pushed for GROWTH in the ECONOMY, and AGAIN CONGRESS didn't sign the bill! OBAMA is a normal person, and he understands what a STRUGGLE is. so ppl if you are angry at anyone, let it be CONGRESS, for the president could only do but so much, other than that you'll be saying, he is over stepping his ground, can you say "IMMIGRATION". Come on people even Stevie Wonder can see through this, and besides, I know a MASTER POSITIONER & STRATIGEST, so please remember the earthly law expires the day that you die, but there is a GREATER LAW that ALL should be aware of, and HE makes NO MISTAKES!

'Mittens' is gonna show epic fail Obama the door in November - that will be the true "end of a dismal road" for this nation. You all just keep fooling yourselves. I'd ask what your smoking, but you most likely are all stoned anyway.

    Please, don't give up hope that some day hopefully sooner than later good will overtake evil. As long as there are republinos we must have the strength and stamina to ward off the hatred that the republino party represents. Keep in mind that some people actually believed and believe enough to support Nazis, fascism, racism and race superiority, communism,abuse of power, bullying, murder, discrimination, greed, slavery, rape, torture, humiliation, and lack of caring for humans as well as animals. We must be brave enough to be aware that we live in such a world and fight against the republino evil on a daily basis.

      And what a phony road it has been. No substance. No vision. No clear cut agendas for our countrys future. His boys will also be phony on Conan. What else could they possibly be? These new republicans have screwed up what used to be a perfectly viable political party. Their leadership threw ALL their honor out the window 3.5 yrs ago. Shameful by anyones measurement. Truly shameful.

      The other day I saw a brief interview with BUSH I and he mentioned that neither him or Ronald Regan would be accepted in today's GOP.

      How funny that is -- since today's GOP is consistently saying they represent the Regan era.

      Not really charemor, they get Romney up from his nap, he gets off the bus tells his lies to a crowd of about twenty people which takes about ten minutes, gets back on the bus, lays down to take another nap. This is repeated at every stop. If the media would be truthful (which they won't because of the ad money) they'd report the truth, Romney is the laziest candidate ever.

      The only road that "Romulian Romney" is at the end of is that made of gold on the economic blood of others. The GOP/RNC "Speculator and Chief" plans to drive the Middle Class, the Working Poor, the disabled, and the elderly off the road economically. "Romulian Romney" has NO clue of what an honest days work would even be like, and has NEVER earned any pay of his own. This "Bain Trained" economic speculator has NO clue of what being President means. His intolerance towards others makes him too mentally unstable to ever become President. His Economic Policies of "Tinkle Down Economics" went off the road long ago, and has put our nation in an economic ditch. Hey America! What is that wetness on your economic shoulders?? Don't look up America! It is "Romulian Romney" standing over us economically, poltically, and socially laughing at 99% of Americans. Politically, "Romulian Romney" is at the end of a GOP/RNC political road paid for by the "Darth Rove." AKA. Karl Rove, and his "Special" friend "Goofy Grover." The GOP/RNC "Specualor and Chief" has his economic road paid for by the "Coke/Coal Brothers." At the side of "Romulian Romney's" road socially are the equal rights of women and many others. This "Speculator and Chief" has many "Speculative Corpses" laying in deep economic ditches on both sides of his "Road to Ruin." Think about this America. A "Bain Trained" Speculator as President. With only ONE philosophy in mind. Those citizens that cannot ecomomically defend themselves will economically perish. Yes America! This also includes our brave military veterans who are not able to defend themselves anymore economically. These brave military individuals were too busy defending our way of life, and the GOP/RNC "Romulian" finds this simple economic concept too "Alien" to even comprehend.

      I read in the news that Gov. Romney was flying on his "bus trip". He would fly into a state, get on a bus for a "three hour tour" and then fly off to the next state and do it again. What a poseur this man is.

      Romney does what is best for him , always.
      Veterans, military retirees; note that Romney PROMOTED THE DRAFT, then skipped out to France for extraordinary lenth of time when church missionary tours were limited. When Romney came home, he sided with his dad that the whole Viet Nam War was a scam and that he was against the war. His early flip flops, he is good at.
      Promoting the draft, while Americans were dieing, he skipped out, then says he wishes he could have participated. Pro church, Anti Americam.

      Fairly Reliable Bob, THIS to me is the near ULTIMATE hyprocritical flip-flop. Romney was FOR the war, as long as HE didn't have to go. One article I read some months ago said that the Mormon church -- was at the time -- the ONLY church to be given waivers granted for missionary purposes!?!?

      And Mitt was in a very close ELITE class of those granted Missionary waivers. He'd of been better to of kept his mouth shut ! But NO, he went out and PROMOTED the war, and then went off to France. I have to wonder what the elders of France who knew who Romney was and WHY he was there -- what THEY thought of his waiver to the draft, given it was the US led Allies who LIBERATED France from Hitler!

      When he came home, he found dear-old-Dad was now AGAINST The war? So Mittens hitched a ride on Daddies bus and said that HE TOO, was now against the war!? NOW WHERE ARE THE 'SWIFT BOATERS" ! ! !

      P.S. The company I worked for in '04/05 ALSO *offshored* some of our call-center jobs -- to Argentina and the Phillipines! LESS then a yr later, they had to MOVE THEM BACK to the US because there were too many problems. I even went so far as to tell my accts HOW to circumvent the off-shored call-centers to get to talk to ME, so *I* could take care of them!

      And about the same time, I had technical trouble with my ISP. I called and called and called, and could NEVER understand enough of their broken-english-accent to understand what they were telling me. BUT FINALLY, I called and got someone in FLORIDA!? When she answered the phone in a CLEARLY TOTALLY AMERICAN voice, the first thing I said was:" OH THANK GOD, someone who speaks english" Her reply was:" Yeah, I get that alot"! ! !

      Where is the news media on Williard's religion? The Mormon church teaches that if a White person procreates with a Black person, the White person must be killed.

      What say ye, Willard?

        I don't care how much money he and his cohorts spend. I'm not voting for no damn Mormon heretic. Romney sincerely thinks, he can ride into the White House, by out spending, using lies, jive half truths, dodging his past, hopes and dreams of bigot racist, tea party meat heads, and so called supporters, who don't know, their ass, from a hole in the ground.

        The Obama campaign is heading to Europe over the July 4th holiday with Hollywood actors in tow..... yes, the Dems certainly are thinking only of all the poor, stupid, U.S. citizens they must protect and instruct, and mandate to death.

          If Mitt Romney is elected he will take his orders from the Mormon church. That is what local elected leaders in Utah do and that also include Jason Chaffetz and Orrin Hatch. they don't pass anything in Utah unless the church give it's blessing. We should also check Mitt's immigration status and whether his other wives are with his family members that still live in Mexico and how many children does he really have and I wonder if any of his other wives are underage. The mormon men seem to love it when they are very young.
