King of Bain, “When Mitt Romney Came To Town” [Trailer]

I’m not unbiased in the matter, and it makes me uncomfortable when the right attacks the right with class warfare. That said, Romney had no problem  attacking from the left this cycle  and it is a damn good trailer…

Enough with this [Candidate X] Must Drop Out Bullshit

(The graphic to your left was lifted by those upstanding lads at Misfit Politics)

I’m a Not-Romney guy. Newt Gingrich is my Not-Romney of choice. I’ve already discussed why Rick Perry campaign and Jon Huntsman campaign haven’t impressed me. Rick Santorum? I’ll have to Google him when I get home, but meh.

I like Mr. T’s taking on the entire Republican Primary better though…

And This is Why We Hate Mitt Romney

I’m trying to get used to the idea of Mitt Romney as our Presidential candidate. He seems to be the only one organized enough to run a national campaign, and if he doesn’t motivate me I can always find Senate and other local candidates I can channel my energy on. Fine.

Then of course he goes and reminds us why so many activists don’t like him and necessarily trust him. Romney was recently on one of them tele-townhall’s for some tea party organization, and said the following…
