Romney doesn't drink, but he does like his whine

Slick Mitt- the upscale version of Bill Clinton, the only other politician I know who parses the truth as artfully as Clinton does- doesn't mind attacking his opponents with false and misleading ads.

Mitt, unlike Clinton, is doubtless certain as to what the meaning of "is" is. He's just isn't certain of the meaning of "saw."

Face it: Romney has an authenticity problem. He comes across as a robot- a robot nobody is quite sure has any particular convictions about anything.

Like Clinton, he also has a truth problem. One thing he does well, though- and in that, too, he resembles Bill Clinton: Mitt Romney whines.

Mitt has attacked just about everyone though, not just Huck and McCain- and done it in a singularly nasty fashion which is quickly making him a pariah among the candidates and- in the unlikely event of his nomination- will assure that a great many people who will vote for him to keep Hillary out of the White House will not be disposed to lift a finger for him otherwise.

When he's called on it, though, Mitt and his people think he's being picked on.

Poor baby! Why will nobody believe him?

I wonder....



On second thought... no, I don't.

"why will nobody believe him? I wonder"

check out a poll bra, and lay off the kool aid.
You've seen a poll that says that most people think Mitt is being picked on? I haven't. And once again, most of the polls show Huckabee leading.

I check out all the polls. As I've pointed out before when we've heard this "Huckabust" business and how Romney was now in the driver's seat again, the numbers just don't bear it out- leaving a substantial question as to whether it's me or you guys who keep getting proven wrong the next time a new poll comes out who are drinking the kool aid!

The latest poll, today's Reuters-Zogby, has Huckabee up by two points. Yesterday, it was one.

I'll keep it simple, you said: ""why will nobody believe him? I wonder" in the context, i just REread you were talking about his being picked on, haven't heard a lot of wining, just observation that he was attacking on substance while they were attacking on character (i.e. pig, phony, liar, dishonest, etc.etc) The polls show a continual slide of Huck, can't look at the numbers and tell, look at the graph on real politics. Huckabee was up yesterday by one, and now on he is up by 2, no freakin way. again bobby, trends. If you think that Huckabee was up by one yesterday and now is up by two, that that is a trend and another huckaboom, you are in for a rude awakening this Thursday.
here is the very page you refer to, and all the polls for the last week or so.

Please notice the relative positions of the lines on the graph today, and a few days ago.

The continual slide for Huck you mention just isn't there. What is there is mixed results for the past week or so, where before there were only solid leads showing for Huckabee.

The suggestion that that one-day increase in Huck's lead in one poll was a trend was a satirical reference to the kind of evidence you guys have been citing to try to sell your illusory "Huckabust."

It never happened. All you have to do is look at the numbers- and, for that matter, the graph.
