FORT MYERS, Florida (AP)– Republican presidential hopeful Mitt Romney offered a verbal tour of "Hillary's House of Horrors" on Saturday, conjuring images of Halloween spook houses to underscore his criticisms of Democratic front-runner Hillary Rodham Clinton.

"You go in one room, she wants to raise your taxes. You go in another room and she wants to have government taking over health care," Romney said to laughter and applause at a town hall meeting in southwest Florida. "You go in the next room and she's weakened homeland security by voting against the authority of our government to listen in to al-Qaida's calls."

Romney said he would keep Clinton from reaching the White House not by acting like her — an apparent dig at rival Rudy Giuliani — but by building on the conservative foundation laid by Ronald Reagan.

Romney also touted his bipartisan work with a Democratic legislature while he was governor of Massachusetts. Responding to an audience member who expressed frustration with Congress members who strictly vote along party lines, Romney pledged to work with opposition leaders. "We had to agree to solve things together," Romney said, citing his state's health care reform effort and balanced budget. "I will not make it a personal, rancorous battle."

bus?

Really, after that remark no one should have listened to another word he has to say.

2. I suppose Willard's Magic Underwear© protect him from the

deadly irony in such statements.

hours to Canada as the terrified dog defected and shook w/ fear.

10. Yes, and I thought about that dog when I posted this.

It's Romney's version of Frist "adopting" and eviscerating cats under false pretenses and George W. Bush sticking firecrackers up frog asses. It tells you a lot about the person, and for some reason, the GOP keeps pushing that "family vales" garbage.

:patriot:

5. Romney is a calculating liar

6. He probably got the script from those gold scrolls that only

Joe Smith saw and then buried deep so only Mitt could Find them...

I think I'd rather have a Rastafarian as president than a Morman...
