Burying Mitt

This article makes no argument.
a. A course of reasoning aimed at demonstrating truth or falsehood: presented a careful argument for extraterrestrial life.
b. A fact or statement put forth as proof or evidence; a reason: The current low mortgage rates are an argument for buying a house now.
c. A set of statements in which one follows logically as a conclusion from the others.

From the first day I began following this candidate, every press story mentioned two drawbacks , his religion and his changing on issues. This was their all out frontal attack. When someone said he was making too much of the Mormon problem, I googled and founmd 200,000 citations. Now fineman is trying to cover his tracks, because he and his associates created these myths.

I disagree with the idea that Romney's religion was a factor all of its own. Morris Udall ran for president in 1976, yet many people still don't realize he was the first serious Mormon presidential candidate. Where Udall and Romney differed, however, was in the phoniness that Mr. Fineman cites here. Romney wanted to paint himself as something he was not--an evangelical Christian--when again, Huckabee is the real deal.

johnnylawless: don't offend me or other non-mormons living in Utah who voted for Mitt Romney. Only 65% of the the state is mormon. The rest of us are of different faiths and maybe we like what we see in Mitt Romney. So, alot of people voted for him inspite of his religion. 2nd you are ill informed if you don't remember that he lived in Utah for 3 years digging the Olympics out of a mess. So he has connections here other than just his religion.

I wholeheartedly disagree with Fineman. I believe that rather than Romney portraying himself as something other than he was, we now see him clearly for what he really is...a True Conservative...that is someone who wants to keep things exactly how they are...with him and his friends that make up the monied oligarchy on top, while stymieing the advancement of those less fortunate or weaker than the position into which he was born. He is actually cruel and callous, just like our current president. All the remaining candidates would be a better president than him. Huckabee, McCain, Clinton and Obama are all more in touch with the common American than Romney is. At the beginning of the campaign I knew very little about him; now I'm totally repulsed. Thank you Super Tuesday voters!

Mr. Fineman, you are fooling yourself and attempting to fool your readers by stating that Mike Huckabee is "clear about who [he is]". Gov. Huckabee is running as the "true conservatitve" in this race. The truth is that he is at best a populist and at worst only ran because he is an anti-Mormon bigot who could not countenace the thought of a Mormon president.

Romney lost because he is like many "conservatives". He uses his own interpretation of the truth and uses money and media to twist information??? the ignorant followers cannot reason away these lies. Mitt was pro-choice, backed anti-gun laws, and raised government fees (a tax of sorts). However is appears as a conservative savior.
These conservatives have laid their tax burden on the future generations and are so pompous as to say they fight for the unborn. Conservatives fight for the unborn because they need them to pay the taxes that conservatives are ducking.
Money is not everything and a growing intellectually inclined youth are going to put the conservatives in the history books??? just like other intolerant peoples of history.
America, if you don???t like it??? change it. GO DEMOCRATS!!! I am tired of having Atlas rip me off without any means of my obtaining justice.

Mr. Fineman, you are fooling yourself and attempting to fool your readers by stating that Mike Huckabee is "clear about who [he is]". Gov. Huckabee is running as "the true conservative" in this race. The reality is that he is at best a populist that at times leans to the right. At worst he ran simply becuase he is an anti-Mormon bigot who couldn't countenace the possibility of a Mormon president.

Howard, lose the sissypanties glasses ,geek haircut ,and stupid smirk, and then I will read your lame articles to laugh at the rest of your persona.

The entire GOP seems to be sef-destructing. Ann Couter is now a "Hillary-girl" bcause she believes the reincarnation of Reagan in the form of Mitt Romney (perhaps) will take power in four years. How pathetic! The GOP has gone off the deep end. Will the party splinter in Minneapolis?!

"Burying Fineman" A couple more pathetic articles like this and poor ,sad ,jealous ,Howard will be burying himself. The difference is that everyone will remember Mitt Romney when he passes on and when Howard goes "south" they will say "Howard, who"

I was really struck by just how accurate this article was. Mitt Romney changed his positions so many times that by the end of his campaign, you didn't know where he stood any longer. When he ran for governor in Massachusetts, he was a moderate, pro-choice candidate. When he ran for president, all of a sudden he was pro-life (and on and on and on). In short, here was a candidate who would say and do anything to get elected. People hate phonies and that is the reason why John McCain is on the verge of winning the Republican nomination.

Fineman this is one of the most pathetic, bias, left leaning articles I have had read since yesterday. You have been in the tank for John McCain for years because he is one of the few Republicans who you could count on to undermine the conservative agenda. Your simply mad at Mitt because you believed he has gone over to the dark side of the force. Stop being so obviously liberal. If he had been a conservative who had become more liberal you would be calling him enlightened and evolved. Quite frankly, I can't wait to see how you turn on McCain once he gets the nomination. The enemy of my enemy is my friend. Today, in your view, McCain is an enlightened politician who has refused to compromise his principals, tomorrow you will be calling him a right wing war fanatic who is to old and out of touch.

Fineman is pathetic. Posting a video, such as the 'This Romney Guy, I Guess', that tries to discredit a candidate by making fun of the statements of a child is irresponsible to journalism.
