"Tearing down Mitt Romney to win an election."

ROFL!

Just stated on Morning Joe as if Republicans are so, so innocent.

They have never attempted to tear down Obama, have they?

The hypocrisy is getting deep already.

Gonna go look for my hip boots.

They started this whole "Destroy the opposing candidate" many years ago and now it's coming back to haunt them.

Boo-hoo

You can't expect them to just sit back and take it. My goodness, Democrats are not supposed to fight back.

Hello? Republicans how did you treat Bill Clinton? And how are you treating Obama?

of his relentless attacks and ability to stick with his lies. Truth was that THE CORPMEDIA was afraid to cross Rove because they didn't want Rove's venom pointed at them.

The Republicans whine worse than a sleepy toddler. They create a climate of hate to the point of but if they get called on their very real shit they can't take it.

When you sell your soul to the devil, you cannot act surprised when he tries to drag you to Hell at the end. They are using the same weaponry you used to enjoy using, and the real reason you are angry is because you have become the expendable ammo. For a further reference, you, Bush, and everyone to the left of Grover Norquist are the brownshirts, that the true SS like Grover and Koch will butcher in the new "night of the Long Knives." You were warned.

If a empty suit in my closet slides off its coat hanger, is that "torn down" as well? There's nothing inside either one.

It's their counter to the "reinvention convention."
Saw a bit of Meet the Press yesterday. Jan Brewer and Mike Murphy both argued that the Rupubs have to get Mitt's story out at the convention because... get this... the Democrats have spent so much money tearing him down!

Repubs dragged Hillary and Bill through the mud too. And what they have done to President Obama. Please.
