Did the Romney surrogate on Hardball just say...

[renie408]

that Romney is planning to stab the base of the GOP in the back as soon as he is elected??

OH.

MY.

GOD.


This just gets crazier and crazier.

1. See my post on Vandemovingout...

2. I dunno if I heard those exact words

but I sure heard a lot of talk about whether he's 8 pounds of shit in a 5 pound bag versus 9 pounds of shit in a 5 pound bag.

6. Tweety and the other speaker both said that

if the guy was right and Romney talked hard right in the campaign and then cut deals in the middle once elected, the base of the right would go crazy. They compared it to Bush I signing off on taxes after he said "Read my lips".

3. heh. .He's not SUPPOSED to be a Romney surrogate.. He's supposed to

be a neutral commentator. .

11. That guy is a "reporter" for The Politico

Jim VandeSomething.

I can see how the OP thought he was a Romney surrogate. Just as slimy.

12. I came in when my husband yelled for me to come watch and didn't hear who was from where.

He just kept apologizing for Romney the whole time and Tweety and the other reporter were pretty obviously in opposition to just about everything he said. I just assumed it was one of those deals where they get a conservative and a liberal to be 'fair'.

And the guy was trying like hell to get them to cut Romney some slack and Tweety was just out and out laughing at him.

It was AWESOME!

4. Yep, he sure did...

He said, in essence, Romney is lying has ass off to the base and once they elect him, he will throw them aside and 'govern from the middle'. It was very bizarre because he was actually trying to shill FOR Romney, he failed spectacularly.

5. and tweety just said that Bush won all three debates in 2000!!!!????!!!!!!

just shows how cravenly in the tank they were back then

Gore sighed the debates away, I guess, or maybe he was just too orange......

[yardwork]

8. No way. All three? What about the one where w lost the feed on his wire

and kept repeating "it's hard work" over and over again. W didn't win that one.

[PCIntern]

9. Tweety will never ever admit that W wasn't sexy to him...

He had more than a tingle for president codpiece...

[yardwork]

10. It's embarrassing. Tweety should have better taste.

[JI7]

13. i think that was 2004 where Bush lost all the debates but Media whores

never gave credit to Kerry for doing such a good job on it. they never went after bush for stuff like hard work, what about poland, and that long pause he had the way they did Gore for sighing .

the sighing was also one of those things pushed by right wingers and then the media whores push it to make it into some major story.

[yardwork]

14. Oh you're right, I was thinking of 2004.

I hated the media for the way they treated Kerry and Gore. And exactly - the way they treated Gore in 2000, it was a disgrace that they ignored how W did much, much worse in 2004.

7. Claims Romney would govern from the center

HOW THE FUCK DOES HE KNOW? ANYONE KNOW ANYTHING REGARDING ROMNEY??? The man has made it his purpose to be as vanilla as he can. VAGUE ROMNEY.

What was in that tape is how he regards 47% of this country, the entire Democratic Party, are moochers and freeloaders.
