Former (we say that with relief!) Massachusetts governor and presidential aspirant Mitt Romney has been making quite a few enemies this week. Let's find out who is on his sh*t list now:
--The entire state of Massachusetts. Romney's latest commercial never utters the word "Massachusetts," but it isn't exactly flattering to the people who elected him. The commercial claims, "In the toughest place, Mitt Romney's done the toughest things."
Oh, yeah? If his argument is that he made Massachusetts straighten up and fly right (pardon the puns), he didn’t exactly get results. As soon as he was on his way out the door, we rejected his successor and elected a liberal. So, if he wants to say that he did such a great job over here, just point at Deval as Exhibit A of why that's not the case.
And isn't it funny that Romney calls Massachusetts "tough" while at the same time portraying the state as a crew of traditional bleeding-heart liberals? Does that make us granola-lovers who can beat your ass? What's that all about?
--John McCain. McCain thinks Romney can stuff it because Romney used to have a much softer stance on immigration. McCain said, "Maybe I should wait a couple weeks and see if it changes. And maybe his solution will be to get out his small varmint gun and drive those Guatemalans off his yard." McCain has also decided to make a fundraising stop in Boston, perhaps to court local conservatives who feel miffed by their previous darling.
--Gay people. Whether or not gay people are on Mitt's Sh*t List depends on his mood and the day of the week. Since he's running as a hard-right Repub, they're definitely on it, but he's trying to soften it up, saying that he's not anti-gay. He's just anti-gay marriage. So, does that make him a closet anti-gay?

A little sensitive aren't we? Someone calls you "tough" in an ad and you are so offended that you need to write a hit piece on it? Give me a break. Actually, don't give me a break, keep it up- every time a crazy lefty like you bashes Mitt, it makes it more likely that he will be the next president.
After reading articles like yours, I would say Romney doesn't stress enough just how left of center a lot of you people are. While you revel in your misguidedness, I will be eagerly awaiting the nomination of President Romney.
Things were so tough he couldn't actually do squat, the lame duck. At least the ad's amusing.
Oh boy, here come Mitt's Minions again. Only two today? Come on, guys, you can do better. I thought you could hardly make a negative comment about Mitt anywhere on the web before his blogsearching bloodhounds come after you. I think Mitt should just save his campaign money and replace you guys with a webcrawler searching for "Mitt" + "bad," which would then automatically post your clone-like comments about how "crazy lefty X" is "out of touch" with the "center" which Mr. Romney would like to be. The old coinage "agitprop" should be supplemented by a new term "autoprop," which is far more descriptive of your mindnumbingly stupid political strategy.
Please give the Mittler the honor he deserves by using his full name when you write about him.
That full name is Willard Mitt Romney!
And thanks for your response to the Willardbots. Anyone who supports that incompetent are either being paid or were some of the few elites who benefitted from his governance in MA. As for him becoming President, let me just say, "HA!" and then follow that with "HA! HA! HA! HA!". Then I will close with a "Thanks for the laugh, guys!"
Have you people really looked at what our ELECTED officials on both sides of the isle have done and have planned? Wake up; look behind the scenes if you care about your future!
Typical -ist-averse liberalism: bash the GOP candidates with personal attacks, insult the posters, but never, ever make a valid intelligent point. Keep it up. For those of you that claim to care about the future it seems you are entirely oblivious to the hole you put your cherished candidates in. You only embolden the far right.
Romney is on the main list of RINOS (Republicans in Name Only) and is far more of a liberal than a lot of liberals. He is one of the reaasons I moved out of Boston and was ever so glad to move. Living in a third world city and state was depressing. In Wash. D. C. he is taken for what he is - a Hillary type phoney who can also be bought.
