Mrs. Mitt: What with that bug on top of your head?
Mitt: I dare you to knock it off, Joe.
Joe: Damn Mitt, you're hot!
Posted by: | January 28, 2008 at 03:09 PM
3:09 - hey dumbass - that's not Romney's wife in the photo, it's reporter Mika Brz...... however you spell it
Posted by: | January 28, 2008 at 03:14 PM
The same question asked again:
Scarborough: "Ted Kennedy is endorsing Barack Obama today, do you wish that he' come out and endorse John McCain?"
Mitts repsonse this time
Romney: "NO!"
Scarborough: But Mitt you just said YES, whats with the FLIP FLOP
Romney: Isn't this like Massachusettes where I can take ALL SIDES!, well thats not a fair question then

Humorless Mitt asks Conan O'Brien to be his new speechwriter.
Posted by: caption contest | January 28, 2008 at 03:20 PM
Gee thanks Mr. Kennedy! Now can we get the Prez to deliver his kiss of death to one of the Republicans?
Posted by: | January 28, 2008 at 03:22 PM
Sorry, 3:14... err... Mitt Jr.
Posted by: | January 28, 2008 at 03:23 PM
Mika: He is hot... in an "only because he's rich" kind of way.
Joe: I'd do him.

"Joe Scarborough at a private airport in Sanford for MSNBC. Scarborough threw him [Mitt] a couple of softball questions."
Any question about McCain is a softball question.

I used to like scarborough... but his bias makes me sick. The fact that he is wrong on this guy makes me sicker

Every one of the establishment talking heads has drunk the Romney kool-aid. I hope Rush, Joe, Sean and all of the rest of those morons fall on their faces tomorrow.

All these guys can't be wrong. They live this business...their livlihood depends on it.
Mitt is the most qualified to lead us for the next 8 years.
Mitt in '08!!

So, who do you staffers think is the hottest; Ryan, Randy, Paula, or Simon?
Posted by: | January 28, 2008 at 03:35 PM
I heard that there was only 75 people at this event.
Posted by: | January 28, 2008 at 03:54 PM
3:09 - that is freakin hilarious!!!!! That said, I voted for Romney yesterday. There were about 125 (of course, far, far more incl media) at the event in Sanford - respectable crowd and enthusiastic. McCain is extremely scary for conservatives...as scary as Crist.
Posted by: I-4 voter | January 28, 2008 at 04:03 PM
Mika is hot.
Posted by: Drama | January 28, 2008 at 04:12 PM
Morning Joe needs a disclaimer running across the bottom. Mika looks like she is propping up a third grader when he talks, he is dumb as a rock.
Posted by: | January 28, 2008 at 04:20 PM
PLEASE call out Mr. McCain on his call out of Romney on withdrawal from Iraq when 3 months earlier he was doing the same thing. Senator McCain has been getting a free ride for long enough. I would like some "straight talk" from him on this issue.

Thanks!

McCain's national "Hispanic Outreach Director" is Juan Hernandez, an open borders, dual citizen, "Mexico First" advisor - so apparently, McCain may delay building that "g**dammed" fence.
from Juan's site: he endorses that illegals should have US banking priveleges, free flow over the US border, US licenses and ID, absentee balloting in Mexico while staying "active" in the US, etc.

CAPTION:
Joe: OK Mitt, just keep staring at me.
Mitt: Do you think she notice that we’re trying not to look at her sweater monkeys?
Joe: I don’t know, just keep staring at me.
Mitt: How’s your peripheral vision these days?
Joe: Excellent!
Mitt: Mine too… teheheheheheheeee.
Posted by: | January 28, 2008 at 04:53 PM
Mika to Mitt: I saw you looking at them. Now, knock that stupid bug off your head, you more ridiculous than Joe.
Posted by: | January 28, 2008 at 04:59 PM
Forget about Mitt and Joe. Mika is the knockout in this bunch. Go Mika!
Posted by: | January 28, 2008 at 05:15 PM
I voted for Romney. I agree with you 4:03. McCain is a digrace to the Republican Party. Romney is our only hope.
Posted by: | January 28, 2008 at 07:04 PM
At least we know McCain is a liberal. Romney is only saying he's conservative, but who knows what well really get on any particular day?
Posted by: | January 28, 2008 at 07:11 PM
McCain is not as liberal as many of you would like us to believe. Perhaps many of us are not as much on the rabid right as you would like to think. There are many moderate Republicans who are fiscally conservative, and socially moderate.
Posted by: | January 28, 2008 at 07:52 PM
hey Joe hows that former staffer that broke up your marrage. You are hated in the panhandle. good riddance
Posted by: | January 28, 2008 at 08:41 PM
WOW!... Go Mitt!

The four-day USA Today/Gallup Poll was conducted Wednesday through Saturday. Over this period, almost one out of five registered Republicans indicated that they had already voted via absentee ballot. For results based on the sample of 552 Republican voters in a “low-turnout election,” the maximum margin of sampling error is ±5 percentage points. This smaller sample represents Republican primary voters who appear most likely to vote in the primary based on responses to a set of questions about current interest in the election and past voting behavior.

Let us look at McCain’s conservative credentials:
-IMMIGRATION: he wrote the bill granting amnesty to illegal immigrants (co-sponsored by Ted Kennedy)
-SOCIAL SECURITY: he voted to give your social security money to illegal immigrants
-TAXES: he voted against the Bush tax cuts multiple times (he has since flip-flopped and has campaigned as a lifelong tax-cutter)
-RHETORIC: he routinely engages in Democratic class warfare against big companies in America, particularly the “evil” drug companies who research cures to debilitating diseases for a profit
-ECONOMY: as recently as December 2007 he admitted “he does not know the economy very well” and needed to get better at it
-1ST AMENDMENT: he wrote the McCain-Feingold campaign finance bill that was declared to be an unconstitutional infringement of the 1st Amendment (co-sponsored by ultra-liberal Democrat Russ Feingold)
-2ND AMENDMENT: he was called the “worst 2nd amendment candidate” by the president of the NRA
-ENERGY TAX: wrote a bill (co-sponsored by his buddy Lieberman) imposing a massive tax on energy which, according to the Department of Energy, would drastically raise the price of gasoline and put 300,000 Americans out of work
-GLOBAL WARMING: supports radical global warming legislation which involved him voting with every Democrat; think only America is responsible to take action, not other superpowers
-JUDGES: he joined forces with Democrats (Gang of 14) to block the Senate Republican’s attempt to confirm conservative, strict constructionist judges
-WAR ON TERROR: fought with Hillary Clinton to demand that terrorists be given a full American trial
-GAY MARRIAGE: he joined liberals to fight against a federal marriage amendment supporting the institution of traditional marriage
-CHRISTIANS: campaigning in 2000, he famously described Christian leaders as “agents of intolerance”
-PRO-LIFE: he filed an amicus brief against pro-life advocates in Wisconsin
-BI-PARTISANSHIP: he met with leading Democrats in 2004 to discuss the possibility of being John Kerry’s Vice-President
-PROFESSIONAL ETHICS: ringleader of the infamous Keating 5 ethical scandal which cost US tax payers $160 billion (Google it)
-PERSONAL ETHICS: McCain cheated on his first wife after she had a severe accident that left her partially disabled. He then divorced her and married his multi-millionaire mistress, whose daddy bought McCain a spot in the Congress
