Rep. Says Romney Team Making Lists of Dems They Could Work With in Obama Lame Duck

Source: kgo 810

-snip-

Amy asked if Romney would be able to ask members of his own party to make tough choices.

“He’s going to be working with us,” said McMorris Rodgers. “Iam very confident. Even now I’ve been working as his House liaison. He’s interested in meeting with every member, hearing what their ideas are, what their priorities are. They’ve even talked to me about Democrats they could be reaching out to.”

“To switch parties?”asked Amy.

“No. To work with them across the aisle on all of these important issues,” said McMorris Rodgers.

“They’re already making those kind of inroads and those kind of contacts,” said Rick.

“Well, I’m not sure that they’ve actually called any Democrats, but they’ve already been … there’s already some thinking through the lame duck and those first hundred days and how they’re going to approach it there’s areal desire, yes, to tackle the tough problems but to bring the people along and to get both the people and plans in place so that we’re going to be ready to go,” she said.

They will be as ruthless in their first 100 days as was Scott Walker in Wisconsin..Should they assume complete control of the government. Be prepared for our new plantation economy. Yes, Master what ever you say.. Yes. their will be a few turn coat Dems' who will sell out. Those who are not really Dems'. Such as Arthur Davis. In the new Borg world of Scalia, resistance is futile.

or Secretary's of State. It bothers me that they don't care about lying and that they act like it's in the bag.

I am making a list of Victoria's Secret models that will stop by to clean
and paint my house today. A lucky one will get to walk the dog too.



The demographics for Romney are just brutal ...... African Americans,
Latinos, Women, the Young, Gays, teachers, nurses, democrats, labor,
asians, jews, environmentalists, and on and on will not go for Mitt.

The old white guy vote only goes so far and many of them (<50%) will
not vote for Romney either.

will work with a Republican president. Then they will get all the blame. I am sure a Republican Senate and house with Romney would be awful......but he could also veto Dems.
