I think Mitt can answer that question. ~~

It’s more strange that there are only as many verbal goofs as there are.

1970s letter to the editor in Canada: " If Britain can hold an election in four weeks, why do we take six?" So they shortened it a month. So why does the US take forever?

Sweet Ima, if that happens, then you’ll really have a freakout and end up the mayor of Trollville. As it is, if his recent inaugural is any indication (and we’ve still got “Hope”), Obama may just in fact start doing some serious leading. More power to him! Lookout Thugs!

We are all waiting, breathlessly, for one of Mitt’s sons to throw his hat into the fray!

The TAKER NATION? You mean defense contractors, corporate farmers, and Rick Scott’s HCA?

“I don’t think Hilary will run. Her time passed. Our taste for “Historical firsts” is behind us. Baby Boomers have aged out. We’ll be looking for someone born in the ’70s, ’65 earliest.”

I agree about Hillary, but I think the First Female President is still gonna be a big deal. I’m putting my money on Kamala Harris (currently California AG), but not in 2016. She’s only 48 at the moment, though, so she’s got time. Look for her to start making a national name for herself.

So why should cons have all the money? We need to change the tax code, but all the special interests say “Not My Deduction/Loophole”!

But Ms. Malkin would NEVER put any Republicans on her list. As I said, we need to reform the tax code. And if they “legally” cheated, then it wasn’t cheating! How many righties took advantage of the 2009 tax amnesty? Maybe that’s why we never saw any of Romney’s pre-2010 returns.

Thank goodness Dem’s support background checks on firearms, but despise it for voting…. that Dog will be voting for Joe…

When the right can actually show the “voter fraud” they say exists on such a “massive” scale, then maybe Dems will go for “background” checks. But given the history of voter suppression in this country, I go for our current system. In all my Father’s years at the Board of Elections, there was just one case of voter fraud ever found. (1950-1990) And both Dems and Reps ran the board during that time.

If Bush was Pro Business and Obama is anti-business why did I lose my you know what under Bush and everyone’s stock pro folio has doubled during the Obama market? Hell Romney made $20Million. Maybe he voted for Obama to keep it rolling.

The truth be told, it was the Dems who caused the meltdown in the first place. BTW, during the last quarter, the economy shrank and unemployment rose to 7.9. The U-6 unemployment remained steady at 14.6. We had a chance to put a real businessman in the WH, and got Mr. Cool instead.
