Mitt Romney, phony?
Posted by on Sunday, December 23, 2007 at 3:00 pm

The Concord Monitor on Mitt Romney:

If you followed only his tenure as governor of Massachusetts, you might imagine Romney as a pragmatic moderate with liberal positions on numerous social issues and an ability to work well with Democrats. If you followed only his campaign for president, you’d swear he was a red-meat conservative, pandering to the religious right, whatever the cost. Pay attention to both, and you’re left to wonder if there’s anything at all at his core. …

When New Hampshire partisans are asked to defend the state’s first-in-the-nation primary, we talk about our ability to see the candidates up close, ask tough questions and see through the baloney. If a candidate is a phony, we assure ourselves and the rest of the world, we’ll know it.

Mitt Romney is such a candidate. New Hampshire Republicans and independents must vote no.

Ouch. (Hat tip: Byron York at NRO’s The Corner. That would be the same NRO that endorsed Romney.)

  1. Condor Says:

    I totally agree with this. Mitt Romney seems to me to be the absolute worst candidate of the Republican lot. His political answers in the debates are totally transparent as such. I’m surprised the voters haven’t seen through this yet. The governor has no clothes.

  2. Mad Max, Esquire Says:

    Mitt Romney suffers from Hillary Clinton syndrome…say absolutely anything you have to to get elected and believe nothing.

  3. Joe Mama Says:

    That speaks well of NRO and Byron York.
