Then Ted was underwater on his house.

Using Ted Kennedy as a wedge issue will work in the short run, but if he plays it too much it will only hurt him in the long run.  

What a bizarre accomplishment to take pride in.

The more we learn about these guys, the more unlikeable they become.

He’s used that line before. Both lazy and unimaginative.

How odd that causing another man fiancial problems becomes evidence to support his conservative credentials.

Forget about who the person was. It is a comment that can only be said by a dick. He can frame the same statement in a different way. I hope the Romney people are taking notes. Don’t use that line again. It makes your candidate look like a pompous ass. No different from the $10,000 bet he tried with RP.

Does Romney really want Republican primary voters to do some research and dig up those old debates of him vs. Ted where he’s trying to out-liberal the Liberal Lion of the Senate?

Oh crap, what was I thinking. The closest to research Republicans do is to look at the schedule for Faux News.

Because he was talking about a Democrat, a liberal, and a Kennedy.  Partisan posturing to the base.

Romney has really shown himself to be an awful debater now that he has to actually engage, rather than just sit back and watch as everyone self destructs around him.  

I’m beginning to think that Newt Gingrich might actually be the guy that Obama should fear most.

Yeah and you complain about the coarsening of political conversation. Please don’t again.

Thankfully, that’s over. My scorecard:

Newton Leroy: B-

Rather lackluster, but Willard gave you what I think may be the best he’s got. You bobbled, weaved and ducked and never took a hit.

Paul: C

But, who really cares anymore?

Sanitarium: C

But, who really cares anymore?

Willard: D+
You showed up on time. You made some effort at energy and substantive. You failed at both, but you tried for a change.

Brian Williams: D+
How about a follow-up question, now and then, like: “What is self-deportation?”

It’s like saying: Sure I lost, but I did get to piss in his cereal.

When I was growing up, my sisters, younger than I, had “Chatty Cathy” dolls. Chatty Cathy had a string with an eye on the end coming out at roughly the same place a stoma appliance would. When you pulled the string, Chatty Cathy would say one (1) of eight (8) scripted sentences in rotation. I find virtually no difference between listening to Chatty Cathy and listening to Willard.

People of class stop smearing the deceased. Willard and “others” have no class.

You got that right! LOL

When Romney says something like this, so rude about someone that has passed away, it reminds me why many people think he is Eddie Haskell, and will never be President….He has said this before, doesn’t his handlers realize how course this sounds? 

Fear? Really? You figure a guy who ran for president knowing in advance every redneck yahoo white supremicist bigot with a gun would automatically mark him for the death card is going to FEAR one of THESE clowns?

Pretty unfair – Cathy was at least likeable.

Hahahahaha I made Ted Kennedy take out a 2nd mortgage.  Just like how countless loan sharks duped countless homeowners into doing.  Ouch, I don’t think that line works so well anymore.

It’s really the only thing I could brag about in that election.

‘I’m so super rich that I made a rich member of the Kennedy clan have to take out a Mortgage to compete with me.’ The only way he could make himself seem more elitist and out of touch would be if he had followed that with a Ted DiBiase laugh while waving a wad of cash.

Seriously in times like these, forcing someone into financial difficulties is not something you should be proud of to the point where you feel you can try to use to win votes.

By 1968, there were no good Kennedys left.

In fairness, Willard, Senator Kennedy likely had a far higher tax rate than you do and couldn’t squirrel money away in the Caymans, Switzerland and Luxembourg. Goodness, my maid, the venerable Connie Montemayor and my cat FD Rooselvelt have a higher tax rate than you.

My butler, Jameson, receives a salary and pays the income tax on his wages just like Warren Buffett’s secretary, who has to listen to Warren play his ukulele all day.

My cook, Cook, has investments and pays the same rate as Mitt Romney on her capital gains.

My upstairs maid, Fifi, works on tips and does quit well.

My toast chef, Manuel, the gardeners and the staffs at all the properties keep their tax returns to themselves, as we all should.

Thinking Kennedy has the final revenge when those old ads he ran come back to haunt Rombot in the general. POS Newt is not going to get the nod. It will be fun while it lasts.

I can relate.  I made Blake Lively take out a restraining order to get rid of me.

What?

TRRE – you are such a simple clown. Are you going to tell me that anybody who has “smear”ed Reagan or Nixon  since their death was classless? Do you read your own comments?

Also, you simply aren’t being honest with yourself if you believe the fact that Kennedy had to mortgage his home to win isn’t worthy of consideration. It speaks to the ignorance of Kennedy more than anything. Mortgage your home for a job that pays less than any job he would take outside of office?? He simply confirms how valuable these jobs are to both parties career politicians. It speaks to both Romney and Kennedy in the same disgusting light.

You still make it fun to hunt you down out here – what a simple mind.

Irrelevent that Ted Kennedy may have taken out a mortgage to beat Romney.  Kennedy’s goal was to have enough cash to buy what he needed to open up a can of whoop-arse on Mitt; it worked….Kennedy won.
