They will come up with a candidate soon enough that will be the msm darling. It could very well be mittens. If it becomes clear that the public is not buying into him, they will present us with a new, invigorated gingrich, or it could be palin again, or some other neocon we don't even know about yet. Remember 08: it was Rudy all the way, then they resurrected ol Fred Thompson as a backup...when both flopped, they went with McCain "out of nowhere!", and we got McCain shoved down our throats until most people believed he was the "frontrunner" (even though a couple months earlier, no one took him seriously and he was dead in the water).

The power of the MSM in controlling elections is huge. I wish I were wrong about that.

Haven't you been talking to them the last 2 years. You should be the where and how. Why not just focus on the people around you and hope every one is doing the same. Thats kinda what i thought we have been up to the last 2 years. Haven't been on this site much sense then but i hope we haven't all been sitting around talking about how stupid every one is.
Its not hard to make just one person see the light when you talk to them a lot about the subjects at hand. As far as turning the masses in one powerful strike... that is something that doesn't happen very often. You'v got to be quite the word smith to pull that off and even then get what you need to say published and in front of them. eat the elephant one bite at a time.

Co-opt the Tea Party... and a nice 30-60 second commercial how Mitt Romney destroyed America, can easily destroy this candidate. Romney's BAIN CAPITAL, RomneyCare, and Mandates are just the top 3 on this RINO. A well executed plan can destroy his candidacy. Just like Carly Fiorina that shipped 10,000's of US jobs out of the country, Romney bested that with BAIN to 100,000's of jobs and their companies. Then reconfirms corporate global empires with the people's tax dollars to protect the interest of his corporate buddies.


Romney is just a Corporate Raider profiteering off the over-funded pensions that he shook ever nickel out of and the savings assets of companies or even furthering profits by shipping it all overseas. Now, how did Mitt MANDATE Romney become extremely wealthy so quickly again? Destroying America business and jobs.

This candidate should be in last place.

Disconnected, Uncaring Elitist

Mitt Romney you just lost my vote. "Don't laugh Mitt. . . It's not funny! 4000 dead soldiers because of Ill-conceived Iraq, and he's Laughing about it. Folks you are going to have an income tax until you croak because of A-holes like Romney! An elitiest screwball who has his millions, who could care less if the income tax goes to 40%...he has his money, he doesn't care!



Ole' Mandate Mitt:



Mitt Romney War Monger - Double Guantanamo!



Mitt Romney - The Non Sequitur

Second place?

The only one of two with double digits?

In a straw poll of hidebound NH GOP "officials"?

With almost no advance warning to the grassroots?

That is an outstanding result.

It would have been an even better result if Ron would make it clear that he intends to run.

Agreed. I see the second place 11% figure in such a large poll of candidates in an establishment run straw poll as being awesome!

This is the best damn news I've heard in all day!! This definitely shows we're making inroads and this surely will force the pundits to take notice, especially after a strong finish at CPAC!

Remember, this vote was PARTY insiders, not regular voters. 11% in a party that wanted to act like Ron didn't exist only a couple years ago is a HUGE step forward and it's a very good result, especially when he's beating the media darlings like Palin and the new darling Pence. No one should be surprised about Mitt's total. A lot of people think Mitt is the front runner this time around and plenty of party people like to vote for the guy they think will win, not necessarily who they support in principle. Having said that, read my earlier post on this thread about the liberal influence in the GOP that doesn't mind stuff like Obamacare. There's plenty of sheep, liberals, and idiots in the party...

Not only is 11% from party insiders encouraging, just wait till Ron starts polling strongly in the state and I suspect many of those Romney voters not being very commited to him as a candidate. We will start peeling off a lot of those wishy-washy voters. Psychology plays a big role in voting for most people. They are hesistant to vote for a perceived loser. Once Ron is shown to be viable, they will come over in droves.
