My sympathies to Massachusetts Democrats.
How the hell did you survive 4 years of Mitt Romney? He is the single most offensive candidate on the Republican side by far. The guy is a pathological liar and a fascist of the highest order(or lowest depending on how you look at it).

1. It was tough
But now we've got ourselves a wonderful new Dem governor, Deval Patrick.

2. i agree
Its funny that a state which I consider my second home- I will be up there this weekend- elected a guy as governor like Mitt Romney. But you have to remember- the flip flopper presented himself as an appealing candidate, and has since changed his stances with hopes of lieing his way to the white house...

3. We are a tough bunch
We survived winter with nothing, scraped out a town or two from the land, dumped a bit of tea, fired the first shots at the original King George...

Mittens was just a speed bump.......

Most of us would like to use him as one....literally.

He was never here and when he was he made it clear how much he despised Liberal Mass.


He is an AssHat!

9. Well, I'm glad he doesn't like Mass because I love it!
One of my three favorite states with those being Wisconsin, Massachusetts, and Virginia.

5. It's hard to say who the most offensive GOP candidate is.
They're all liars, fascists, and/or theocrats, as far as I'm concerned.

8. The Mass Dems have put together a website to showcase the truth about mitt
One example:


Desire to serve in Vietnam

THEN
"I was not planning on signing up for the military. It was not my desire to go off and serve in Vietnam..."Boston Herald, 5/2/94

NOW
"I longed in many respects to actually be in Vietnam and be representing our country there and in some ways it was frustrating not to feel like I was there as part of the troops that were fighting in Vietnam."Boston Globe, 6/24/07

The press must have been in bed with the guy, right? How else could he have been elected?

15. I think it was his opponent...
that was the problem. That...and the fact that people think it is healthier to have some opposition to one-party-rule.

14. It wasn't all that bad.

PlasticMan spent 2/3 of his time running around the country making fun of the state he was elected to govern, and the other 1/3 holed up in his 11 acre mansion on Lake Winnipesaukee.

The only time we saw him was when the Big Dig I-90 tunnel roof collapsed, or he strayed back into the commonwealth to kiss some republican-loser's ass at a fund raiser.

Other than that, he was pretty much invisible.

Now the rest of the country can see what a real asshole looks like. Hopefully they won't make the same mistake we did.
