Toe that company line. You are much less bombastically hyperbolic these days. Congratulations.
Not necessarily a Romney supporter at this point, but flip flopping is relative to context, how a question was posed and/or a candidates exact words. Not saying he does not. Heck all candidates can be flippers and floppers. Just sayin'.

The more people look at Romney, the worse he looks. He's a pure airhead. Above all, Romney stands absolutely no chance against President Obama.
I think the dramatic flameout is the reason for the coverage, he'll be a Bachmann-like footnote pretty soon.
I do not think Romney can be dismissed so easily.
At this moment in time he is clearly the front runner, and he is in for the long haul.
On the other hand, I think most Republicans are yearning for a true conservative to lead their party; they saw what happened in '08. I would not discount either Perry or even Paul making a comeback ... but that Santorum guy is a loser and should get out now.

The base/tea party folks are certainly holding out for one of the real conservative offerings, but the bigwigs who actually control things are pretty much all behind Romney and focusing more on keeping the House and regaining the Senate. The presidency's only one piece of the puzzle.
These poll results have been mysteriously missing from Fox News coverage so far. Not sure why they are being so obviously anti-Romney to the point of jeopardizing any legitimacy they ever had in the news business, but they do seem on that path. They are still reporting Herman Cain's soaring in the polls...lol. Catch up Fox...jeez!

I saw that and was confused. They were reporting Cain's "rise in the polls" as if it just happened today, if anything I think we're at the climax of Herman Cain, he will soon be a long forgotten silly footnote of this election season.

The Tea Party has the Godfather of the Tea Party movement, Ron Paul and they refuse to support him because the TP of today is nothing but an astroturf front for corporate fat cats. If they want a real conservative, there's only 1 running and that's Ron Paul, the rest of them are big government neocons.
