1. The Bain years and revelations about his 15% effective tax rate...

...are biting him on the ass. Priceless...

[roguevalley]

8. he's branded. He won't be the nominee. It stuck to him like glue.

[Raine]

2. He has no appeal to anyone else

TOTALLY clueless.

[baldguy]

3. His people.

4. $200,000? That's lower-middle-class vote for Romney.

11. Food stamps for Mitt

He thinks that $200,000 qualifies him for food stamps.

5. You cannot make shit like this up

Seriously funny.


Six years and millions down the drain for Romney to see that even Republicans don't like him.


Don't stop now Romney - take it to the convention.


They owe you man, they owe you, lol.

6. DING DING DING! Grantcart, you're our grand prize winner!

Six years and millions down the drain for Romney to see that even Republicans don't like him.

Republicans love Mitt: it's Republican VOTERS who don't. They're not obediently buying into his inevitability. And if he doesn't start winning by wide margins, the Republicans will have to force-feed him to the voters at a brokered convention.

But I'm not complaining: with three different winners of three different contests, the candidates will have to bite down that much harder on their hardcore base voters, making it that much easier for independent, moderate, and undecided voters to embrace (and equally important, re-embrace) Obama!

9. I think he'll press on--last time, he spent a lot of HIS money.

This time, he managed to line up a ton of suckers to throw into the pot and pay his way.

7. Cause Newt got all the ones worried about the liberal Jews in NYC with their fancy newspapers

And pointed out that the liberal media wasn't going after Romney they were going after him.

10. Why won't Mitt attack Gingich's Tiffany line of credit?

There was an uproar on Gingrich's line of credit with Tiffany. Gingrich had half a million credit line. I believe that Mitt has not made that an issue because he thinks that is normal to have such lines of credits with jewelery stores.

13. because Mitt can go in and spend a million straight from his pocket

12. Tsk, tsk. Sucks to be him.

[Raine]

14. He needs to learn to fake some empathy

I know he can't offer up any empathy that's sincere or real but he could at least fake it.

[Scurrilous]

15. Alas.
