   If Romney could just pick Condi Rice and convince her to go both ways (bi), he would easily become the next President of the United States of America.

   @Mary:
   Okay. Ruler of the world.
   Still has nothing to do with the political climate of this country and those who are so satisfied with the way things are they won't lift a finger to change it.

   With a black-woman-lezbian running mate, Romney would not only get more votes, he would get more votes away from president Obama.
   A gay person running for office mobilizes a huge block of swing voters.(discrimination FOR rather than against gays. Still discrimination) Voters who vote based on what they want, rather than what America needs)
   Also, with a black running mate, some swing voters who vote along colored lines rather than American lines would swing Romneys way. President Obama would not recieve roughly 100% of the black vote again. (rascism in action)
   And statistics show that when a woman runs for office, she can count on OVER half of all women voters voting for her instead of him. (se x discrimination in action)

   Everyone already knows he tapped Ryan. Why keep repeating it.
   THINGS THAT GO WITHOUT SAYING. (banasy's specialty)
   My comments are simply a sad commentary on the way Americans vote these days.
   And who could argue that had Romeny chosen a gay black woman, he would get more votes b/c of rascism and se x discrimination being such a huge part of the American scene.

     Not to put too fine a point on it, sir, but "if he picked..." Ad nauseum is repeating it.

   If you could just pick staying off line and stay that way, you could easily become President of your own party on another site.

   I have to wonder what criteria – if any – is used for "Sponsored links" on the side. I've got a gun training ad. Anyone else have that?

    Romney's attempt at humor from June 2011

    "I saw the young man over there with eggs Benedict, with hollandaise sauce. And I was going to suggest to you that you serve your eggs with hollandaise sauce in hubcaps. Because there's no plates like chrome for the hollandaise."

    Lamo, to the gun training ad, @ BOMBO ©
    Back on topic. Romney infuriating the Israeli community with his recent speech while visiting, shows his ignorance... very reminiscent of Bush Jr. Ugh !

    Could it be that Romney has a short memory ?

    Mitt Romney in 2012: "I don't manage the money that I have. In order to make sure that I didn't have a conflict of interest while I was governor or while I was considering a run for national office, I had a blind trust established."

    Mitt Romney in 1994: "The blind trust is an age-old ruse, if you will, which is to say, you can always tell the blind trust what it can and cannot do. You give a blind trust rules."
