Same Old SS Question, But With An Interesting Twist

No, Romney wouldn’t raise payroll taxes to kick the SS can down the road again, even if Ronald Reagan did sign off on it twenty-six years ago.

Would destroy jobs - bullseye!

SS personal accounts - bullseye!

Raise retirement age - bullseye!

Another blue ribbon commission - groan.

His answer is still a home run, though.

Back to Mitt.

Now it’s “Ronald Reagan” time!

 Russert’s mentioned RR 4 times.

What’s with Russert with these redundant phrases?  First “blood and treasure”, now “Ronald Reagan.”

And yes, this is the Mitt Romney hour.

Romney’s social security answer

A little straight talk himself…and he’s absolutely right.  it’s going to take compromise with roughly a 50/50 congress.

Where’s Rudy?

Is MSMBC freezing Rudy out?

Romney is no Reaganite

He ran in 1994 against Teddy dissing Reagan.

Since when did he fall in love with the gipper?

I’ll Give This to Huck

He put timmy in his place.

Yegads,

The Huckster’s saving Mitt’s kids’ inheritance.  Groan.

Unfunny Huck?

Is it me, or is Huck remarkably unfunny tonight?  I keep waiting for the rimshot, and it’s just not there.

OOOPS! Hucks joke fell a little flat

Wasn’t funny anyway.

Having the Ronulan follow

only makes Mitt look even better.

BYE BYE PAUL…

A liberal’s favorite attack going back to Goldwater and Paul isn’t even answering the question.

MSNBC REALLY Fears Mitt

They threw the Mormon question at him.  Don’t they realize that the more obvious they make it, the better he’s going to look?

What about fair play

I fully expect Brian Williams to ask Hillary Clinton about the weird doctrines of her Episcopalean faith, Barack’s middle name of Hussein, and Russert’s Catholicism, too.

Romney’s running away with it!

I am impressed.

Romney

Anyone who spends his own millions to get a job that pays 300,000 bucks a year? He really wants the job.

So he’s buying the election?

Shut up Russert.
