Romney birth certificate remark sets off firestorm - Political Hotsheet - CBS News

I predict that next week, his bulldog (Anne) will be hitting all the morning talk shows, telling everyone what a silly prankster her Mittens is.
this will be the big question he has to answer now in the next current news cycle.

romney is his own worst enemy.

if the GOP had a credible candidate running romney wouldve never won the primary.

No. That's pretty much your job, all day, every day, to the point where it's pretty much standard operating procedure to skip right over most of what you say.

Ive always said I dont trust Romney, but per previous posts, I thought he was a nice man, raised good kids, etc..This takes the cake. This man has a JD/MBA from Harvard, has made millions, has no skeletons compared to other politicians, and most importantly the economy is SCREAMING for help. Yet he resorts to this...I just dont get it. There are so many independents like me, who would vote for him, if he would stop catering to the fringe element of his party. I just dont know what he will do once in office. He seems to want it so bad, he would do anything.

Of course it is. The GOP is pandering to them. I think 7 of the Convention speakers are birthers. Others, that actually know better, are even pretending that this using the weak minded, is not true. It's sad really, that so many of those being used, are completely unaware.

Just one of the posters who made the statement of the President being racists. Not hard to find at all.

So why does Herman Cain see it necessary to do so?...Il tell you why, because for the people on the far right to "Tolerate" him...notice I said "Tolerate" not "Accept"...you have to share the same bigoted views they do.

Santorum would have been better. Mitt is just as kooky it turns out, but Santorum understood what it is like to be a working class person in America.
