Comments on: In Florida, GOP Sniping Takes Center Stage

CBSNews.com Reports: Republican Candidates Hammer Each Other In Battle For Sunshine State

[thowardone]

As a Floridian, you all would be suprised to see all the *** McCain is pulling down here. I was rooting for him until the battle came to my home state. McCain must think Floridians are idiots, because he has transformed into a hippocrit and lier overnight it seems. I guess some people will do anything to get to the white house. I might not even vote now after seeing all of this. But if I do, I''m voting for Romney... at least he''s honest.

Funny, you''ve lost every debate you''ve ever been in. As far as knuckle dragging Republicans, you illustrate his point perfectly.

is kathtleen harris still in florida?

The Republicans are a bunch of "knuckle draggers," completely "unIntelligently Designed."

Portraying Republicans as "knuckle draggers" is quite a stretch of the truth, although Republicans do walk upright, and on the ground. You and your liberal friends are still swinging from trees with your prehensile tails, flinging dung at one another.

Go pick a fight with someone your own size, monkey.

David Rockefellar''s bagman "Henry the Camel" Kissinger is backing McCain...He''s a War Pig connected to the Kemper-Marley mob in Arizona through marriage who is quite willing to have our servicemen in Iraq for "a hundred years."

David Rockefellar and Kissinger were part and parcel of the CIA-inspired assisted and British assisted Indonesian coup that brought Suharto to power and hundreds of thousands of dead Indonesians. Kissinger, of course, is known for his support of the overthrow of the democratically elected Salvador Allende.

Open Borders McCain, a Bill Clinton-described good friend of Hillary, sponsored with the Obama-endorsing bridge killer, Senator Edward Kennedy, a bill to provide amnesty to illegal alliens and excuse the crimes of drug gang members such as MS13, making them eligible for citizenship if they gave up their gang membership...theoretically, if this had been passed, one of the killers of the New Jersey school yard kids could have been granted citizenship.

McCain, besides supporting illegal alliens, is a Keating Fiver...he was caught dead to rights trying to help the felon, Charles Keating who cost us hundreds of millions after cleaning out depositors and investors.

McCain is the scum of the earth--the only thing dumber on the Republican political landscape are Bush''s supporters.

If one of these candidates happened to be black, would the others be racists for the way they are campaigning against him?

What has Romney ever flip-flopped on???
He supported policy on a womans right to choose an abortion while he was personally pro-life, and now he doesn''t. He has proven he is sincere in his change by the way he voted as governor. He has never changed back. McCain and other candidates have changed policies only to flip-flop back to their original position again (right or wrong).

The biggest difference between Romney and McCain is that Romney admits when he has made a mistake, changes for the better and continues to improve.
McCain''s best days were back in Vietnam. He has always had a hot-temper, lack of self-control and has proven to be dishonest, self-centered and cowardly (using the troops as a shield when confronted with his lies). McCain''s glory days are behind him and Romney''s are ahead.

It shouldn''t be any problem for a republican to get the vote in Florida. It''s full of old people waiting to die.....

As Massachusettes governor, Romney vetod a lot of bills just for show. About 90 percent of Romneys vetos were overidden. He never tried to solicit support to sustain them; never talked to legislative leadership or the Republican rank and file (sound familiar?) Its true as far as it goes - which isnt very far. Almost all those vetoes were overridden by the Legislature and became law. Which makes Mitt not a St. George slaying big-bucks dragons, but an overmatched used car salesman.

If Romney had really cared, he could have gathered the GOPs waning members in one big conference room and at least fought to uphold some of his vetoes. But, nobody can remember one time Mitt asked for their support. Which may explain why Romney suffered so many embarrassing shutouts when not a single legislator in one (often both) of the chambers backed him. The House journals report last year on 286 appropriations vetoes between July 19 and July 31 shows Romneys utter lack of influence.

All 286 line item vetoes were rejected, most of them by overwhelming margins from both parties. He was overridden unanimously 99 times, getting a goose egg from both House and Senate 32 times, blanked by the Senate another 42 times and shut out by the House 25 times.

McCain is dishonest in his attacks against Romney. McCain has been guilty of flip-flopping (Bush tax cuts etc...). Romney only changed for the better. McCain also has a hot temper, lack of self-control and no experience when it comes to being able to fix the economy! McCain knows war and enjoys talking about how anxious he is to continue down that road. All we can do is hope and pray the people of Florida will set their admiration for McCain''s Vietnam days aside, see the bigger picture now, and vote for Romney.

I don''t know if I should laugh or cry with these two (Romney & McCain) accusing each other of being ''Liberal''. That word has been thrown around so much, it long ago lost any meaning it had!

In the 2 hour debate, Ron Paul was given less than 7 minutes and only a fraction of the questions given to the Establishment favored candidates. Fraud and massive irregularities to the detriment of Obama and Paul have already been proven. Paul is challenging the corrupt Louisianna caucus results.

Florida has already been stolen once from Al Gore...if you think anything has changed in this Bush-league state...Well, "you can''t fix stupid."

might be a wild guess, but romneys african american support will likely consist of the 28 or so black people in the mormon church.

%u201CJacksonville, FL
Governor Romney paid tribute to Martin Luther King, Jr. when speaking to a group of employees at Gate Petroleum today and then shook hands and posed for photos with African-American families at a parade.

He jumped off the Mitt Mobile to greet a waiting crowd, took a picture with some kids and young adults and awkwardly quipped, %u201DWho let the dogs out? Who who.%u201D [Insert Seamus joke here.]

He took pictures with many in the crowd and greeted one baby wearing a necklace saying, %u201CHey buddy! How%u2019s it going? What%u2019s happening? You got some bling bling here!%u201D

Later, Romney asked some young men to "boogey down" with him, noting, "I understand you fellows have an excellent sense of rhythm, if you will."%u201D

What choice do they have. If they look anything like a Neocon republican, they''re SOL.

Mitt Romney%u2019s great CEO business success:

In 1992, the firm acquired American Pad & Paper. By 1999, the year Romney left Bain, two American plants were closed, 385 jobs had been cut and the company was $392 million in debt.

The next year, Ampad was forced into bankruptcy.

Bain Capital and Goldman Sachs bought Dade International for about $450 million in 1994.

The firm quickly fired or relocated at least 900 workers. Over the next several years, it sunk increasingly into debt and laid off 1,000 workers.

In 2002 it filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy.
A 1997 buyout of LIVE Entertainment for $150 million resulted in 40 layoffs, 1/4 of the company''s workers.

The job cuts affected all aspects of the company from production and acquisition to legal and public relations.

In 1997, Bain bought a stake in DDI Corp., a maker of electronic circuit boards.

3 years later Bain took the company public and collected a $36 million payout.

By August 2003, the company filed for bankruptcy, laying off over 2,100 workers.

Four months after the bankruptcy, shareholders sued company executives, the initial public offering underwriters and Bain for mismanaging the IPO and failing to disclose company financial information.

I know John McCain is a war hero andhe has that respect, but i think he''s a dangerous man and shouldn''t be president of the United States his theory on war is outdated and a danger to the world

[antoniof123]

What a joke this group is and the funny is that the Democrats that are running are not liberal.

The Republicans have moved so far to the right they have to circle the block to make a left turn.
