Romney: “This Campaign’s Going On”
(CBS)
BOSTON -- If there was any doubt, Mitt Romney cleared it up. The former Massachusetts governor is not giving up his fight for the Republican nomination tonight.
“Ann came to me, and she said, ‘You know, the one thing that’s clear tonight is that nothing’s clear,’” Romney said to hundreds of cheering supporters in Boston. “But I think she’s wrong. One thing that’s clear is this campaign’s going on!”
Romney trails John McCain and Mike Huckabee in two states he hoped to win: Georgia and Missouri. But the former Massachusetts governor is showing greater success in western primaries and caucuses, including wins in Utah, Colorado, Montana, Minnesota, North Dakota and his home state of Massachusetts.
“I think there’s some people who thought it was all going to be done tonight, but it’s not all done tonight,” Romney said. “We’re gonna keep on battling. We’re gonna go all the way to the convention. We’re gonna win this thing, and we’re gonna get in the White House.”
Romney returned to his home in Belmont, Massachusetts, tonight to await results from California, where polls showed him in a tight contest with Sen. McCain. A win for Romney in the Golden State would go a long way toward backing up his argument that his candidacy is still viable.
He says he knows how to run a business, well if that were true then he should fire himself. Romney has used up more than $70 million in American voter''s donations and has little to show for it. His product is a flop, too expensive and not selling.
On the other hand, Huckabee''s product is very inexpensive and selling just as well or better. Now come on, which product would you buy?
Romney product = $70 dollars for a widget that yields 293 delegates = $0.23 cents per widget
Huckabee product = $2 dollars for a widget that yields 190 delegates = $0.01 cent per widget
Huckabee''s product cost 1 cent per widget compared to Romney''s product at 23 cents per widget which calcuates out to the same performance of the product (division of delegates won so far). Any one in their right mind would buy the widget that costs 1 cent if it performs exactly the same as the widget that costs 23 cents.
The business formula that Romney says he is good at proves that he should drop out of the race. He is wasting tons of money. If he can''t run a campaign finacially sucessfully how in the world will he run a huge American government successfully???
Romney is losing money as fast has Enron did with social security of it''s employee''s.
Huckabee is a true leader, someone who wants to share the power with all Americans, not show his prideful power like Romney does.
Vote for true conservative Mike Huckabee!
We believe in you. You are the most Genuine Conservative Candidate ever to run the Republican Race. WE Love you and will pray for you.
