Why the hell are people voting for Mitt?

[robzilla]

Mitt Romney never has anything meaningful to say, so why are people voting for him?
are they voting for his hairstyle or something? Mitt is basically a Jersey Shore canidate, because I think his millions are going towards GTL (Gym, laundry, and tanning).
Ron Paul is killing it with voters between 20-30, getting almost 50% of that demographics vote.
It obvious that Mitt would never beat Obama, but Ron Paul would have a chance.

The hardcore republicans are going to vote Rep no matter who is running.
OWS protesters and students, are going to be split.
Ron Paul would also divide the Dem vote too.

Ron Paul would have a chance [against Obama].

Obama would win in a landslide

[wtt0315]

Most people besides degen pot smoking young people don't like Ron paul

[EmpireMaker]

Obama 93% Paul 7%

[robzilla]

Seabiscuit could be the nomination of the republicans, and he would get all the republican vote. Most Americans only vote for the party, not for the person.

[beg154860]

Yeah only junkies think Ron Paul would make a great president why are people on these forums so obsessed with ron paul

[MUHerd37]

Why would anyone vote for Obama?

[Dutch]

People are voting for Mitt because he's a distinguished looking older gentleman with graying temples. Duh.

[milwaukee mike]

people are voting for mitt because the powers that be tell us he is the only guy that can win the republican nomination.
because mitt and obama will continue these bankrupting wars of agression against enemies that don't exist.

[Sam Odom]

Mittens or Obama are NOT the answer to our problems

Mitt is a Corporatist

Obama is a Marxist

this is a big reason why many people are voting for him

did you write that yourself?? If so very nice

It obvious that Mitt would never beat Obama, but Ron Paul would have a chance.

Mitt could easily, easily beat Obama, and in fact as I have said, I'd put him as a slight favorite at the moment. Watch what happens once he officially becomes the nominee. The national repub machine will galvanize around him, and everything going on now will seem like a million years away, no one will remember any of it. They will take in tons of corporate and wall street money, distill the "messaging" and pound it out, over and over again, where they need to.

Ron Paul would not have a chance for exactly the same reasons. If he stayed true to what he says he believes, the repub machine would not support him at all, he would get less corporate/wall st money than obama would get, and he would get trounced.

Ron Paul is solid except his monetary policy ideas are a laughing stock among economists

[MUHerd37]

Ron Paul is solid except his monetary policy ideas are a laughing stock among economists

You can't be that dumb. Do you even really know his economic ideas? Left wing economists hate his ideas of course. I like his economic ideas such as having the government stop giving corporations handouts and subsidies. He wants to audit the Fed. He wants to cut the massive spending of the government. He says cut $1 trillion from the budget immediately. Of course the left wing economists hate that. They want big a government and tons of spending.

[High3rEl3m3nt]

Anyone else wish that the Republican primaries kicked off in some legit states? Iowa? N.H?...how about Florida, Texas, California, New York, or another big state?

See, you don't even know what monetary policies are.

I highlighted the things that are NOT monetary policies.

Ron paul is a loon and has no grip on reality, mitt won in iowa by 8 votes and won in new hampshire as expected cause its his own backyard, he is not gonna do well from here on out heading down south. Newt is gonna get the nomination.

[teaserpleaser]

Obama would win in a landslide

.... Obama is still going to win by a large margin. Why vote for Mitt? Been asking the same question for a while. Obama is lock and the knownothings on here laughed at me last year when I asked what odds and where can I bet obama wins a 2nd term. Not so funny now huh

[CanuckG]

LOL man you Americans are fukked.

[teaserpleaser]

Newt is really the best chance to beat obama but hope mitt can pull it out. Newt has best chance to debate obama would crush Mitt it would be sad to watch.

[MC PICKS]

LOL man you Americans are fukked.

If obama gets a second term we are for sure.

[MC PICKS]

Newt is really the best chance to beat obama but hope mitt can pull it out. Newt has best chance to debate obama would crush Mitt it would be sad to watch.

Newt will crush obama in the debates, romney will do well too but not as well as newt, newt just flat out knows his shit.

[MysteryMung]

Ron Paul is solid except his monetary policy ideas are a laughing stock among economists

LOL seriously, go back to the gold standard...

Otherwise, there are plenty of people who aren't "potsmoking hippies" that support Ron Paul and his overall notion of small decentralized federal government. I bet we continue to see Ron Paul finishing second and close thirds throughout the primary season - there can't be THAT many hippies fellas.

hey MORON - do you know what MONEY is???

cutting one trillion from the deficit is MONEY therefore it is MONEY POLICIES

thats just a little thing called COMMON SENSE that you moron liberals DO NOT HAVE

also you highlighted "having the government stop giving corporations handouts and subsidies"

well what are they handing out to the corporation, cheese and crackers? NO THERE HANDING OUT MONEY MORON!!! So its MONEY POLICY!!!

no wonder this country is going down the tubes

[MysteryMung]

LOL man you Americans are fukked.

Things would be a lot easier if we had 300 million less people.

[teaserpleaser]

Newt will crush obama in the debates, romney will do well too but not as well as newt, newt just flat out knows his shit.

newt is good but I already said that I see mitt dropping the ball at some point he cant out talk Obama. You'll see mitt will come out of this and Obama will make this look easy.

[kidcudi92]

This is why the country will never change, people keep voting for the same dumbass candidates with the same agenda, what party they are is irrelevant. Then they will call the candidate who WANTS to make changes to a declining country a loon. Incredible. Think for yourself once in awhile.

[Emily_Haines]

What difference does it make? Mitt is basically a white Obama.

If Paul don't win we are all fuked.

Newt is articulate and aggressive no doubt; the most complete speaker and politician in the Republican package. Newt is also a 30 year Washington insider however, has had plenty of scandals during those times, and has bailed on two wives in the middle of their cancer death tenures - doesn't play well with a lot of "Christian Conservatives" with "Core Family Values", and for a lot of older Americans, Newt - been there, seen that.

Newt is a great politician, but Newt doesn't have that head of steam he needs to clamp down on Romney; clearly shown by his less than stellar performance in both Iowa and NH - 4th place in both States.

Desperation - also a stinky cologne. What ever happened to the POSITIVE NEWT MANTRA, NO NEGATIVE CAMPAIGNING OR ADS . Bailed out on that after primary #2 - spending 3.5 million in ads this week attacking Romney.

Newt is finished.

[teaserpleaser]

White obama guy is so busy try to prove hes the anti-obama. Hes full of shit though anybody who cant see it isnt paying attention or just doesnt want to see it.

mitt wont drop the ball, guy is a fukin robut pal

he cant out talk obama but he doesnt need to, mainstream media will give obama small wins in all debates but say romney "held his own" fox of course will say romney won and successfully made his key argument that obama is socialist

romneys "gaffes" like the one he made recently where he said his father gave him the advice to "never run for office if you need the salary to pay the rent" or whatever it was wont matter

the debates will be washes, anticlimactic, and will mean nothing, polls wont budge on them

mitt will put together massive and i mean massive wall st and corporate money, especially with those super pacs, and the repub machine will pound the fuk out of the areas they need to pound the fuk out of, and will probably win

Obama-as-socialist will of course be the main messaging point, they will blast it where it needs to be blasted, fox news will blast it, and it will work

I see romney takes it in a close one, hes not looking for a blowout anyway

obama probably runs again in 2016 and/or 2020

[teaserpleaser]

We agree on mitt being a robot ... I know you've got to be joking if you really think obama gets beat by this fake boring mitt. Watch the debates when the time comes you must have forgot how good Obama is in these. Trust me wont be a wash put it to you like this im not concerned with mitt,paul, or newt beating obama... Having fun watching them pick on each other though.
