Assaulting the Spire

“O Lord, Make my enemies ridiculous”

Politics – Romney hops on the Mainstream Bandwagon.

Like Newt before him he just lines up with the rest of the MSM and calls Iraq “A mess”

I wondered when he was going to do this. First he portrays himself as the conservative candidate and gets a base working and as soon as he wins public opinion he begins to distant himself from the current administration policies. Its the “well you may like this guy already but I have a better idea” move. He gets conservative followers using conservative motives and then pulls out the “I got a solution!” banner.

Well, not like I was gonna vote for the guy anyways, but he’s at least put the last nail in the coffin of “maybe” that I had for him. Funny that he calls it a mess when he isn’t a general on the ground or privy to the inside information on the reconstruction.

Now, if Petreaus (spelling?) says that it’s a mess in his report then by God it’s a mess then, but until we hear from the generals on the ground (and most of them are fairly optimistic) that it’s a problem lets just go ahead and assume there isn’t a big one yet.

Mitt can’t do that though because he has a goal to try and achieve. He’s got to gather himself some of the anti-war crowd to go along with that war crowd he’s been pandering too. How? he sneaks in a few comments here or there to show that he knows how to play the fence. Not exactly a quality in a leader I look forward too. If a guy can play both sides of the line it usually means that he doesn’t know what he really believes and I can’t afford to have some indifferent candidate trying to run the country. It just wouldn’t be right for the people in my opinion.

So, no vote for Romney if he’s the primary candidate.

  1. Sounds like every politician in the world to me. Although I have to admit, McCain is doing the best job of not acting like a politician.

  2. I’m starting to warm up to McCain. Leadership? Yep. Experience? Yep. Vested interest in the War? Yep. (He has a son there.) McCain is worth a second look I think, if we want conservative leadership that is willing to work with the folks on the other side of the aisle.
