I guess Mitt learned the wrong lesson from back then! Mitt believes it is better to be in the sewer than walk the high road! I bet Nixon is looking up with pride these days!
That's great comparison. I'd never thought of it before, but Romney is sort of like Nixon. While Nixon wasn't a spoiled brat like Romney, he was a complete paranoid control freak. I've heard people who attended Romney rallies complain about how orchestrated and fake they seemed. They were actually told when to cheer.

I'm sure he wasn't the first candidate that has done that and I'm sure he won't be the last.

Was it the rants of a raving lunaticwhen he said we are going to experience a crash because of Congress bypassing the free market and manipulating the housing industry? Was it the rantings of a lunatic when he said our foreign policy of occupation and aggression will make us less safe and to expect a retaliation?

Good thinking on your part. He's not the raving lunatic here.
