NASHUA, N.H. (AP) - Presidential hopeful Mitt Romney took aim at Democratic rivals on Sunday, calling them all unprepared to lead the country and comparing Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton's economic plan to that of Socialist Karl Marx.

"It would be helpful to have a person leading the country who understands how the economy works and has actually managed something," the former Massachusetts governor told reporters after a GOP fundraiser. "In the case of the three Democratic front-runners, not one of them has managed even a corner store, let alone a state or a city."

Romney, who leads Republicans in New Hampshire, has focused his criticism in recent weeks on Clinton, Sen. Barack Obama and former Sen. John Edwards rather than rival Republicans. It's a strategy he hopes will help him maintain his lead over Sen. John McCain and former New York Mayor Rudy Giuliani.

"I wanted to focus on the Democrats," he said. "By and large, the best way to further my interest is to let people know what I would do and to distinguish that from what the Democrats would do."

30. I think the dog on the roof story was in MSM

You know, the one where he made his dog ride on the roof on the long trip?
The one where the dog got so anxious that he had diarrhea that dripped down
the windows of the car? Yah, he sure knows how to manage things!

5. someone

should tell him to get a life.

6. When they say Hispanic...I'd sure like to know what the breakdown

is. I know that Cubans overwhelmingly vote Republican, but I'm curious to know numbers that comprise "The Republican Hispanic Assembly".

23. I believe that Lou Dobbs is a founding member of Republican Hispanic Assembly

I'll put on my Lou Dobbs mask! :eyes:

7. I thought Romney was supposed to be a "Person of Faith?"

"Hillary Clinton just gave a speech the other day about her view on the economy. She said we have been an on-your-own society. She said it's time to get rid of that and replace that with shared responsibility and we're-in-it-together society," Romney told the crowd. "That's out with Adam Smith and in with Karl Marx."


Seems to me an attitude towards society Jesus would support. Unless, of course, Romney is more concerned with keeping gays from getting married and women from having the right to choose then supporting the poor, the ill and the outcasts.

But that last part certainly couldn't be true...

9. How are these insults?

I want socialism and Marx was a great man.

Romney is a corporafascist.

10. "I wanted to focus on the Democrats,"

Code for> I don't want to focus on the duplicitous diaper toting, draft dodging party I am running in.





I least he is taking that one logical position of; not stirring shit because it only makes it smell worse :shrug:

16. how pathetic.

completely pathetic.

[LiberalFighter]

17. I didn't know that his father, George Romney was born in Mexico

And he ran for President?

18. Two peanuts were walking down the street...

one was assulted.

Hat tip to monty python.

[Acadia Blue]

19. Another CEO type president. Another corporotist pig who will

do all he can to create oligarcy and 2 class society.

[Telly Savalas]

20. The president manages the economy? Isn't that a socialist concept?

I thought in a market economy, a nation's citizens were free agents who traded goods and services with one another.

[ckramer]

21. That pig is full of himself

Totally lack of self-awareness.

[Maeve]

25. Yep--totally full of Mitt! eom

[IndianaGreen]

22. Romney is teetering on a "Macaca" moment

His highly publicized bouts of ignorance and bigotry are rapidly approaching those of the late, unlamented, George Allen.

[Bombero1956]

24. what?

that asshole didn't spend enough time in Massachusetts to be able to take credit for "running" a state. :wtf: and now he wants Hispanics to think he's one of them? :wtf:. If Mitt is one of "us" them I'm Canadian because I once spent 3 hours there. :wtf::wtf::mad::argh:

[rocktivity]

28. "Teetering" on a "Macaca Moment?"

He's been there and done that.

:headbang:

29. That "Obama, Osama, Chelsea's Momma" sign took the cake

Not to mention of his distortion of Obama's position of sex education. The kindergarten portion was teaching children to report inappropriate touching, a curriculum that Romney himself had endorsed in the fair state of Massachusetts.

If it weren't for his money, Romney would be in single digits!

[Megahurtz]

26. Hypocrisy Stinks.

>>>"The right answer is not a government takeover....<<<

Tell that to your own stinking Political Party, Romney!

God I just can't stand this guy. :puke:

[roamer65]

27. All blow and no go from a one term governor...

who would not have been re-elected. I'd love him to see him get the Rethug nomination. I can already envision a TV ad with him saying he's pro-choice from 1994 against Teddy Kennedy, then him flip-floping in a recent speech. Then make the pictures from 1994 and now rotate on the TV screen...flip-flop.
