final 1st quarter fundraising predictions from The Hotline

Romney certainly is a serious candidate. Nobody raised his kind of money, won as many endorsements or built a comparatively strong organization the way he did. Romney ran a more sophisticated campaign in a month than people like McCain did in four years! I don't think he'd make a strong general election candidate at all, but there's hardly any stopping him from winning the GOP nomination.

You don't think Mitt Romney would be a strong candidate in the general election?  LMAO.  As weak as he is, just take a look at who his potential opponents are:  a shrill New York hag with no chance in hell of winning the presidency even if Satan himself were the GOP nominee, a one-term liberal black senator, and another one-term senator ex-trial lawyer.  At least Mitt Romney can point to some sort of accomplishments during his tenure as governor

I predict the 2008 election to be eerily similar to the 1988 election Bush versus Dukasis.  Easy win for the GOP

Must be why his approval ratings back in MA are so sky-high.

Completely irrelevent.  Republicans only need to point out the fact that he cut taxes, contrast that to the Democratic frontrunners with no known accomplishments of any kind (except maybe if you want to consider voting to authorize President Bush to go to war with Iraq as an "accomplishment"), and bingo, you get yourself a strong GOP candidate in the general election.

The turning points in this whole campaign were 2 key important dates: October 12, 2006 and December 16, 2006, the days Mark Warner and Evan Bayh exited the race.  The rest is a foregone conclusion: for those of you actually believe Hillary, Obama, or Edwards are going to become the 44th President of the United States are delusional

Oh look - the cute little troll who pretends to be a Democrat is back.

Beano69,

fine then.  i'm an independent.  my first ever vote I cast for Kerry in 2004 and then Jim Webb in 2006, but if the Democrats are stupid enough to nominate your man Hillary and if you're delusional enough to think he has a chance, then knock yourselves out and nominate him.   I'll just vote Independent.

and if Im such a troll, then ignore me, don't respond.  Why do you make such an effort to go out of your way and post angry, wild-eyed hysterical rantings claiming I'm Karl Rove and a Republican in disguise?  my guess is that you know I'm right and you secretly realize that the situation is not good for the Democrats and you're going to lose the White House (again) in 2008 because of the long history of nominating crappy candidates

LOL liar. What a frickin liar.

 but if the Democrats are stupid enough to nominate your man Hillary and if you're delusional enough to think he has a chance, then knock yourselves out and nominate him.   I'll just vote Independent.

"My" man Hillary. When did I ever say I was for Hillary? Fact is that I never did. The fact that you can't argue with me w/out making sh**t up and putting words in my mouth only reinforces my belief that you area troll and an idiot to boot. Not an ounce of intelligence in any of your idiotic rants.

Maybe I will begin to take you serisouly when you can say one single thing w/out putting words in my mouth that I never siad.

I suspect you do this b/c you can't argue with me based on that facts b/c you know I am right .

and if Im such a troll, then ignore me, don't respond.  Why do you make such an effort to go out of your way and post angry, wild-eyed hysterical rantings claiming I'm Karl Rove and a Republican in disguise? 

Wow - again, you make up crazy sh**t that I never said. Never accused you of being Karl Rove. Only someone as dimwitted as you would even think up something so stupid.

my guess is that you know I'm right and you secretly realize that the situation is not good for the Democrats and you're going to lose the White House (again) in 2008 because of the long history of nominating crappy candidates

LOL! My God you are dumb. You may not be a troll, but if you really do believe half of the sh**t you say (like when you say that things are not good for the Democrats right now), then you are unbelievably stupid.
If you really think that the current political situation is not good for the Democrats right now, you must have been asleep for the past five months, or delusional. The only thing I have ever heard that is even dumber is the suggestion that Mitt Romney would easily beat any of the Democratic candidates in the General Election.


After multiple warnings with regard to not posting such personal attacks, this is the kind of post that gets one banned ... - Dave

Naw, don't ban him.  I believe in free speech, even for raving mad lunatics.  Deano is just a paid Hillary poster and is angry his man Hillary is losing in the polls to Fred Thompson. LOL!

and you called me a liar because i said I voted for Kerry and Jim Webb?  yeah, okay whatever.  Now go crawl back under your bridge, troll
