...and him not understanding why everybody was upset he didn't come back and deal with it for his state.

And him fighting hard against legal equality for the GLBT community. And cancelling another tunnel project that would link New Jersey to Manhattan, because we all know that the current river crossings are under-utilized.

I don't care if he's fat, and I don't make fun of him for being so. I'm fat as well, my wonderful girlfriend is a BBW, and I don't need to re-create the casual cruelty of our youths. His girth has nothing to do with his inability to govern, any more than Idiot Son's athleticism did.

He lacks the ability to govern effectively, and makes up for it with bluster and talk and bullying.

At the end of the day Romney loved money more than power exboyfil Nov 2013 #31

Christie has zero chance. Limbaugh, Hannity, Coulter, both Pauls, Cruz, etc. are all against him. stevenleser Nov 2013 #24

No argument with your reasoning. For some reason, right now, I am more inclined to think Ninga Nov 2013 #25

Most of those people hated Romney, I think. djean111 Nov 2013 #27
