Romney Gets Riled

Riled? Really? I thought Mitt Romney has been very composed during the campaign in spite of what has been thrown his way.

If this were McCain, he would start throwing the F bomb at people.

I live in Massachusetts and was witness to the devestation Romney left in his wake. The reason he only ran once was because all polls indicated he would have lost in the most lop-sided loss in state history. I am no John Kerry fan, by any means, but Romney's flip-flopping on issues far outpaces Kerry and his wishy-washy pov. Please do not put your stubborn refusal to back down on supporting Romney before the sake of the history of this country. While none of the candidates are perfect, Romney only appears aesthetically perfect, but he is by far the most dangerous candidate on the ticket. Look at the track records of Presidents who come from millionaire upbringing, thereby meaning they have never HAD to work a day in their life, nor has ever know life without health benefits. Big difference between having to work to live, which most of us do, versus working to keep busy, and for accolades. How much can they really relate to the problems of the middle-class, hard-working person, who works to feed the family, keep the house, and struggles to keep health benefits. There ought to be a law that spoiled, silver spoon millionaires can't run for office, at any level. Self-made millionaires, sure....But come on...do you think Kennedy had the grades for Harvard? Of course not...Daddy built a new gym and John got accepted. And GW? Another silver spoon moron...The person we all need to run for President is out there somewhere, but is way too smart to run for President...so we get the human garbage running the country now, at all levels.

Characterizing Romney as "riled" is a bit of a stretch. He was continually and unjustifiably challenged by the reporter (Glen Johnson). Any objective individual who witnessed the event (live or recorded) would appreciate the patience exhibited by Romney. This a "non-story" by an obsessed media trying to make "hay" out of nothing.

Wish the folks on the press bus would pin Romney down on his plans regarding the 20M+ illegal aliens who have invaded our country. Will he deport them, or institute policies that will encourage them to voluntary emigrate? Voters in primaries still to come want definitive answers. Not all of us are "Fair Tax" devotees.

Do unto others, don't waster your time trying to convince or apologize to these people here tonight. They are bent and set on not dealing with the real matters of this nation. They prefer to bicker and use double talk instead of looking at the substance of what happened today. Later in the article I read, the AP reporter was chastised for being out of line and taking this to a personal level. Governor Romney has a very close and personal friend that is a lobbyist, but they were friends years and years before politics ever entered the picture for Mitt. Mitt respects the man highly who has dealt with issues of high level for his country for Bush, but does not bow to any special interest in his campaign or elsewhere. Mitt is correct in stating that he is not on his payroll but the friend offers his time to help Mitt's cause because he believes in Mitt and that he is the best man for the Presidency.

Instead tonight people here waste their time trying to belittle people so that they feel good about themselves. The real issue is who does have the best plan of actual strategy to get this country back on track and Mitt is the only man that meets those qualifications. I know he's had issue in the past about abortion and the like, but I'm setting all that aside and voting for what is best for our nation - A STRONG ECONOMY!!! I???m done with these bigots here that have nothing better to do than attack religion...

a noticeably flustered Romney shot back, "Did you hear what I said? Did you hear what I said? ... I said I don't have lobbyists running my campaign. He's not running my campaign." he just tells the ones who are what to do and they do it, but thats not "running my campaign,,, this would be the only truthfull statement that could have followed mit's stupid insult to the reporter who called it right. mit's learned from bill; what does is mean to him? and yes doodle yankee it does sound like a dandy little threat

To your comment Doodle Yankee, I was afraid that you may missinterpret that little comment and am sorry now that I left it in there. It seems you are grasping at straws, so I will be more careful. No there was no threat, the only implication is that he may be the President of this country some day, and as a citizen of this country you may have to learn how to deal with that in a mature and patriotic way. Also yes, I believe that learning about Islam from someone who is Islamic would be a great approach and I myself have found it very educational and helpful, and am better from doing it. I would recommend it to you and anyone for that matter.

Wow, I find the comments posted EXTREMELY offensive. It never fails to me to be an issue of concern among people to find some way to criticize a man about his religion and not his positions. What if everybody just went about making bigoted and stereotypical statements like these posted today about Mormonism and turned them toward Baptist? Or how about Catholism?

I think it is just plain sad that the most educated man and the most capable man for the Presidency has to deal with personal attacks on his faith. I'm Mexican and I have 13% Native Pueblo Indian in my blood. I will never understand the remarks posted because it is this same vile evil that refuses to look at a person???s heart and content and tells me that as a society we are still so far from where we need to be.

Mitt Romney is a man that has spent 25 to 30 years turning broken businesses around. Who cares about what faith the man has. This is not a Theocracy like Huckabee would have it. We believe in God, but we separate church and state. So many uneducated people vote because of who's popular to them and not who is best qualified or best for our nation. They can???t see beyond the blinders of religion and vote for the greater good of our nation. Again I'm so sad to see that we a people are not better than this.

I think that the burden of proof lies on you, but just a little internet searching shows that Mesas 10% Mormon and AZ is 6%. Your claim of Mesa being mainly "Morman" as you call them seems a bit of a stretch. You also seem to link sexual abuse in Mesa w/ the "high" percent of Mormons. This is quite an accusation, and once again, where are your sources. What may I ask do you mean by the joke that joseph smith made of the masons, and what is your implications about peyote? My concern is sir, that there are other people, like yourself who believe whatever they read, see, hear, or watch. This is not the way to educate ones self, and I would hate for good people to be deceived by someone just because they saw it on some Newsweek discussion thread.

Did the Morman warning to guard your tongue sound to you all a little threatning, as monotheist religious ideologues are wont to do?? And, if we want to know about Islamism, should we just go to an Islamist website??? Thas wut I wanna no.

i'm not sure it would be possible to show less respect. i am an uneducated handicapped man who feels threatened by mit's type of eliteism. please use this as an example. a fine source of info about these folks can be found in the crime stats that aren't generated by their church. more sexual abuse occurs in mesa az, a mainly morman town, than any other area of this state. how deep you want to go pal. you seem bright,,, find a non morman researcher and see how much nasty stuff they have hidden away. look at the joke joseph smith made of masons and the church that came from the same peyote induced fool unable to follow tradition.

Discernable doodles have long seen the devil???s eyes whenever the Utah missionaries eyes lose, just for a moment, their gently, saintly gleam. His anger is the anger of a lord. Yes, I said a devil in a saint???s suit. Look so you see it before he is elected. Yes!

It is apparent to the discernable that Romney is a devil in a saint suit. He will appear without his suit again and again, hopefully for all to see before he is elected.

Would you please show a little respect and intelligence by doing some research before you try to slander 13 million people. Maybe it would be good to actually cite this type of claim, I mean from a credible historian not some anti-mormon who claims he is. Also it is Mormon not Morman, and it is Indian not Indain. Besides you may want to guard your tongue a little as one of these ???Mormans??? may be your President someday. Oh by the way, if you want a good source for your info, try getting it from the source at www.mormon.org.
