Burying Mitt

Media is always bias with Gov. Romney. He paid millions of dollars to the media and I have not seen any of it except on youtube. Meida is always liberal and no conservative. I now know their color, I will stop my subscription of Newsweek. I just remember how the media portray OJ Simpson so innocent esp. Newsweek., now publishing this disconcerting attack to Gov. Romney saying personally he is not a good candidate because of Mormonism and attending the Church President's funeral. What bigots will say, pen is mightier than a sword and Fineman just proven his point of being an ANTI MORMON and persuade people about this ignorance.

In a country that treats politics like a football game, who really knows Mitt Rommney? The candidates say whatever they want. The media spins it all according to their politics. Fair election, not in America!

If only Mr. FIneman would write as something he is not. This kind of article is what we have come to expect from a media who has decided campaigning is more important than reporting.

Howard would never say this about a democrat. This is ad hominum and indecent. I'm sure he doesn't think Harry Reid campaigned as somebody he is not. I'm sure he isn't saying that about Hillary (who is a bureaucrat and not some motherly feel-your-pain type).

Can we just officially call Newsweek a 'progressive' magazine so that the writers can accept contributions from George Soros?

You are clearly out of your mind! Romney was not fraudulent in the slightest. Your liberal rhetoric leaves no room for growth and improvement in one's life. Are politicians only allowed to be stagnant? They aren't allowed to grow and change their minds' according to new knowledge they have gained. Come on, don't be an idiot!

Count Dracula is almost impossible to kill, but he can be locked back into his coffin. Last night, Americans rejected yet another Republican installment of the business as usual Wall Street vampire, who was set again to feast upon the drive, energy, and optimism of the American people. This time the specter emerged in the form of Mitt Romney, who although magnificently coifed with a splash of gray, well rehearsed on all the key Republican buzzwords, and convincingly tailored in costumes befitting the President, sank hissing back down into his regaled coffin as Mike Huckabee pushed the Cross of Jesus into his face and John McCain beat back the dark lord's howling minions who were rushing in with microphones and fountain pens to save their master.

Let's all be very thankful that he did drop out because Canada or Mexico was looking pretty good.

"But maybe he really is a soulless throat-cutter who would do and say anything to win." Howard, did you type that with a mirror in front of you? Coming from one of the ALL-TIME sycophants for the Clintons, I am surprised you didn't choke as you wrote it. Thanks for giving me another reason to NEVER buy Newssqweak ever again, and to boycott any company that advertises anything you ever do.

EXCELLENT ARTICLE. THERE IS NO NEED FOR A COMMENT.

Howard someone needs to just fire you with your bad articles

Howard's comments should go right to the shredder. Mitt Romney was an excellent candidate. He was done in by bias and back-door Washington politics. What a shame.

Mr Howard-
I feel sorry for those people who read this article and think that you are a reporter. If you were a true reporter with integrity you would report for the public, not for what you think. Your opinion does not matter to the public readers, its the facts that matter. Newsweek is becoming more tabloid..

You don't have a clue. Mitt Romney was an excellent candidate done in by prejudial and back-door politics. As a result, the same old thing will happen in Washington. What a shame!

If this article had included just an ounce of respect for Mitt Romney, I may have given Howard the benefit of the doubt, but it didn't and I don't. Even the title is offensive and the rest is just another example of the incredible media bias that was stacked against Mitt from the beginning.

Mitt Romney knew he could help this country, and we missed the opportunity to elect a truly gifted man. We can only hope he gives us another chance

Worst article I have ever read. The author is a complete idiot!

I find that Newsweek has become an opinion magazine. Your articles are suppose to report on a neutral position, not on the basis of what the author thinks. After seeing this election, the media is more dirtier than the politicians.

I wouldn't be too hard on Romney. Many have fallen into the same trap. Courting the extreme wing of the party is a dangerous game. Giuliani went down in flames for spending all his time trying to be "Conserative" when everyone wanted a Moderate. Huckabee for all his "phenonmena" is still a 200 delegate sideshow.

Bush supposedly won with a Christian coalition in 2004; however, they were icing on the cake. He won because enough mainstream people thought he was more sincere than flip-flopper Kerry.

Pandering to the extremists on either side almost never works. Ask McGovern.
