I don't know what goon (or otherwise) originally posted that, but someone later posted one with the Romney logo superimposed over it (and wigglin').

I can't see the Romney logo now without seeing sexy Flanders.

"Ready for Hillary" and "Ready for Romney" seem like stupid ways to reinforce the notion that a candidate is the establishment pick. Although Hillary got scooped by an underdog, whereas Romney got nominated last time by being the establishment candidate. I guess he's hoping Jeb won't become the inevitable guy this time.

Of course neither Hillary or Romney had anything to do with choosing those names or starting those PACs. Ready for Hillary has since become the de facto official/unofficial Hillary PAC but it wasn't supposed to be and Mitt Romney wouldn't be behind a group that's webpage was literally set up by a high school student for $300.

Given everything we know of the Romney campaign, I wouldn't be so sure. Smells like something Ann would do.

Romney got nominated last time because he was McCain's runner up and the least bugfuck crazy guy in the room, but more importantly, because for him to lose someone else would have had to be able to beat him, and none of those circus animals could keep it together for more than a few weeks, particularly getting outspent so badly.

Of course he did, he was the lowest bidder, a time tested business technique that never comes back to haunt anyone.

Nah, gently caress him. I want the Romney family to buy an island somewhere in the Caribbean where their sons can do whatever sociopathic things they do and their horse can dance freely and they never deign to meddle in the affairs of America again. Just go somewhere else and leave the rest of us the gently caress alone.

Ted Cruz on Jeb's announcement:

quote:

“If we nominate another candidate in the mold of a Bob Dole or a John McCain or a Mitt Romney — and let me be clear, all three of those men, they’re good men, they’re honorable men, they’re decent men, they’re men of character, they’re war heroes — but what they did didn’t work,. It did not succeed. And if we nominate another candidate in that same mold, the same voters who stayed home in 2008 and 2012 will stay home in 2016, and Hillary Clinton is the next president.”

One of these things is not like the others, one of these things doesn't belong....

I'm more struck by the continuing belief that they lost in 08 and 12 because conservative voters stayed home. Remember, "demographics" is a made-up socialist fake science, like climatology.

This is what amazes me also. Plus, many of those imagined potential voters from eight years ago will be dead by 2016. Everything about Cruz indicates a commitment to doubling down on the conservative.

Hey, you don't understand just how stressful it was for Mitt to demonstrate in favor of the draft when he himself had a missionary exemption! That he was so whole-heartedly a supporter of the war in Vietnam, but unable due to forces that were clearly outside of his control from serving wound him up so tight I doubt he even enjoyed his time in southern France or wherever as much as he could have!
