I would never vote for a guy who beat up a guy in high school 50 years ago.

Romney is his own worst enemy. I don't hold something against him that happened so long ago but he's lying when he says he doesn't remember. If you or I had done this to someone we knew in high school we sure as heck would still remember something this terrible. I was not a bully in school but I did a few thinks that I now regret and I sure as hell remember all the details.

"I played a lot of pranks", Apparently that's Mormon code for I was a total douche bad and liked to torment those I felt were beneath me in high school. There's more than just these couple stories and they are coming out.

Everyone had 1 asshole like Mitt Romney at their school, likely they came from a privileged background and their parents were big shots so they got off by making less popular kid's lives miserable. Mitt was that guy, the biggest prick in the school, he's the guy who would lead a group of kids to pin down and assault another weaker and shier student. He's probably the guy who would stick kids heads in toilets and make fun of overweight chicks. That's the guy Mitt was in high school.

Basically Mitt was a rich prick in high school and he's a rich prick now. Mitt Romney was Biff from Back to the Future.

I don't know the whole story of Obama and Wright but at minimum Obama denounced Wright. I have no personal dislike of Romney and I admired his father as Governor. What I dislike about Mitt is his complete failure to stand up for what he truly believes. In reality he's a centrist. Obama has made mistakes and I wish he was further left and would go after the Wall Street crooks that robbed this country blind but what he did this week regarding Gay marriage took a lot of political courage. Mitt would never do anything like this.

And what exactly did he do that was so courageous? Is he declaring an executive order to make it a federal issue? Or is he maintaining the status quo and leaving it up to the states to decide, in which 32 out of 33 states have decided that same-sex marriage is wrong?

Oh wait, he's courageous because he gave his opinion!!! OK, got it. What a courageous President we have woo-hoooo!!!

If you don't think it's a big deal for the POTUS to say he's in favor of gay marriage you are living in denial.

Ok, fine, but to say you don't like him because he is fake, welcome to politics, and you might want to read that latest Obama bio, especially the chapter "Hollow to the Core".

Why do you think announcing one day earlier would have been leadership.

My guess is if that had happened you would have joined lars in squealing like a stuck hog about the President interfering with a state ballot initiative.

fallenschtick, you can't have it both ways unless you really are working for the Romney campaign.

Mitt is not a conservative, he is a republican.

Why don't you give me an unbiased synopsis of what this chapter said. I'm sure you bought and read the book and didn't get your information from some right wing website or Fox News.

Concerning Romney, it's that he's so blatantly fake and disingenuous that's the issue. It's so easy to see that he flip flops on the issues to suit which way the wind blows.

I was making a point.

How much traction you guys expecting to get out of this bully story? What a joke. Is that the best they got on him or should we expect more of the same?
