66. Romney gets a pass because Big Bird is scared he might win!
Sun Nov 4, 2012, 05:19 PM
Nov 2012

Dems somewhat over-reacted to Nixon in the midst of war. But they failed to nail Romney because they wished that he and his baggage would be Republican candidate. But they never figured how strong is race issue. First debate was like a Great White Hope creamed Mohammed Ali in boxing or Williams sisters in tennis. They don't care if Romney is Jack the Ripper....HE'S WHITE and they wanted to "put the white back in the White house." That's why to me this is as historically portentous an election as Germany in 30s. Herr Hitler was no more radical as a candidate and JUST AS MENDACIOUS....the Nazi Revolution came later. That's why Romney's must be crushed at the polls-- to affirm loudly: Americans are too smart to eat s--t and think it a McDonald's freebee!

I hate to think that a lot of Dems are being accommodating in fear that they have to call this thing "Mr. President." IF ROMNEY WINS IT SHOWS THE WORLD THAT AMERICANS' MINDS ARE CAPTIVES OF TV COMMERCIALS RATHER THAN FACTS.

Read Joan Hoff's NIXON RECONSIDERED. Romney is far more dishonest and a predatory corpoRATe type. So why didn't Dems pick up on the lead of Sen. Harry Reid to hit Romney's taxes at least as truthfully intensive as Romney hit Obama with Birther crap? Are Liberals scared of Romney?

TRUTH MUST DESTROY EVIL AS THE ENLIGHTENMENT DESTROYED THE DARK AGES!!!!!
