Romney, an empty expensive suit who is nothing more than a slick used car salesman

REAGAN, LIMBAUGH BLAST ROMNEY FOR SMEARS

Commentary by Jim Campbell

Willard “Mitt” Romney and Barack Obama have a number of things in common.  Romney blasts Newt for being a lobbyist, when he was factually a consultant as his released contract proved.  Why is it when Willard Romney talks about his 12 years in the private sector at BLAIN CAPITAL he doesn’t refer to himself as what he really was.  Romney was a “salesman” pure and simple.  His slickness is clearly show during the debate.

Would you buy a used car from Mr. Slick?

Like Obama, they are bother strangers with facts and the truth.  As people catch on to Romney his ship will hit the rocks.  After all, with the exception of his one term as an overblown governor he has lost every race he has entered. Perhaps the two reasons above are why!

Willard Romney an expert at the Shell Game.

That’s my story and I’m sticking to it, I’m J.C. and I approve this message.

Ronald Reagan’s eldest son Mike Reagan has issued a statement lambasting Mitt Romney and his supporters for claims that Romney’s Republican presidential rival Newt Gingrich was a strong critic of President Reagan.

Reagan says such claims are false.

Even Rush Limbaugh, shocked by the Romney claims, chimed on his Thursday radio broadcast to say “This is obviously a coordinated attack to take Newt out here in Florida.”

Rush slammed the Romney-backed smear campaign against Newt.

“That kind of stuff is why people hate Romney so much,” Limbaugh said.

Limbaugh added that Newt has always been a conservative from his early days in national talk radio in the 1980s.

“He was perhaps the premier defender of Ronald Reagan,” Limbaugh said.

On Thursday, Mike Reagan, a respected conservative commentator, responded to the Gingrich critics with this statement to Newsmax:

“I am deeply disturbed that supporters of Mitt Romney are claiming that Newt Gingrich is not a true Reaganite and are even claiming that Newt was a strong critic of my father.

“Recently I endorsed Newt Gingrich for president because I believe that Newt is the only Republican candidate who has both consistently backed the conservative policies that my father championed and the only Republican that will continue to implement his vision.

“It surprises me that Mitt Romney and his supporters would raise this issue — when Mitt by his own admission voted for Jimmy Carter and Walter Mondale who opposed my father, and later supported liberal Democrat Paul Tsongas for president.

“As governor of Massachusetts,Romney’s achievement was the most socialistic healthcare plan in the nation up until that time.

“Say what you want about Newt Gingrich but when he was Speaker of the House he surrounded himself with Reagan conservatives and implemented a Ronald Reagan program of low taxes and restrained federal spending.

“Newt’s conservative program created a huge economic boom and balanced the budget for the first time in more than a generation.”

Mike Reagan concluded: “I would take Newt Gingrich’s record any day over Mitt Romney’s.”

And Nancy Reagan, Reagan’s wife, has stressed Gingrich’s close relationship with her late husband.

In a 1995 speech at a dinner honoring Ronald Reagan,Nancy said: “The dramatic movement of 1995 is an outgrowth of a much earlier crusade that goes back half a century. Barry Goldwater handed the torch to Ronnie, and in turn Ronnie turned that torch over to Newt and the Republican members of Congress to keep that dream alive.”

FAMOUS LAST WORDS

“For all the backbiting by his former 1990s House Republican colleagues, had it not been for Mr. Gingrich, most of them would still likely be nameless backbenchers. That’s because it was Mr. Gingrich who was most responsible for propelling the Republicans’ historic takeover of the House in 1994 and much of their success afterward.” – Columnist Mark Pfeifle

“A lot can happen in four days, but as of today, the Florida primary and the GOP presidential race are again Mitt Romney’s to lose. . . . The question now is whether there is anything left to trip him up. . . . If nothing recasts this race in a significant way over the next four days – and there are no more debates until late February – Romney should win.” – Aaron Blake of The Fix, 1/27/12
