Romney is NO Cheerleader regarding Massachusetts!
I caught some snippets on Romney's "State of the State" address on the morning news. Is it me or does Romney seem just seem to be biding his time. He seems to not really care about Massachusetts.
Personally, I would like to see a governor who LOVES his job, LOVES the Commonwealth and is a BIG CHEERLEADER FOR the Commonwealth. He should be trying to get more people to move here and should be doing everything in his power to make Massachusetts the best place to be in the country.
I think Romney is embarrassed to be in Massachusetts. He appears to dislike the fact that Massachusetts is as forward thinking as it is.
I can't wait for him to lose reelection next year. Deflate is ego so he will not be able to run for president.

1. He thought he had a "mandate" when he got the job ...
and with his big rethug push having them LOSE seats, I think he realized he's not the wunderkind his pukes tell him he is.

2. He even joined in the Mass-bashing while whoring for Bush
Romney is a complete nothing. Has he accomplished anything at all during his time in office?

4. I think he is angling for a job with the weecowboy administration
...but thus far, nothing seems to be forthcoming. Could it be that he is not as loved as he would like to believe? Could it be that he is an expendable tool? A mere placeholder, to keep those of us in the bluest of states 'down on the farm' so to speak?

I'd love it if the national GOP party treats him the same way he treats businesses that he used to take over in his venture capital days....buy 'em out, bust 'em up, and leave 'em, weeping and destroyed.

He needs to go back to Utah. He does NOT BELONG HERE. Fecking cahpitbaggah!!!!!!

5. Not surprised
He only wants power, he doesn't have any special affection for Massachusetts. He's even said "It's great to be among so many fine republicans. We don't have many in Massachusetts. (with obvious disdain)"

Baseballmitt better leave soon, it's just plain stupid of us to have such a republican governor who was voted in because he looks so good on camera.

6. If your going to have a republican
Say what you want about Mit, but if there has to be a Rupublican party, I'd much prefer to see a Romney, Pitaki or even Guiliani over the Tom Delay's of the world.

I wish Mit luck in pulling his party back to the center...

7. Pulling the party back to the center?
Mitt isn't a traditional Mass Republican a la Weld or Cellucci. He is pretty far right...
