In most of the country we call that a carpetbagger.
If Romney really was a closet Democrat, wouldn’t it have been easier to have run as a Democrat in Deep Blue Massachusetts?
All politicians run away from their party label in a General Election, check out this silly video of Santorum bragging about the work he’s done with Barabra Boxer and Hillary Clinton:
You’re bitching about things all politicians do to appeal to independent voters, the whole, “I’m a (insert party label) but I’m not a slave to my Party.”
Where has mitt shown the slightest interest in ‘proving’ himself to us while his sock puppets try to browbeat us into line?
Carpetbagger is code for Republican, right? Mitt’s on track to win all 5 of his home states, that takes carpetbagging to a whole new level of art form.
Romney ran as a Republican in Massachusetts because (1) during the 1990’s and early aughts, they were getting elected to the Governorship [in fact they held the Office from 1991 until Willard finished his first term in 2005] and (2) when he ran for Senate, the Kennedy’s would not have allowed any serious primary opposition against Teddy.
Yeah, its pretty bad. Hopefully when he’s nominated he’ll prove himself to us. He has his work cut out for him.
This really puts all of my fears to rest…
“We didn’t know a single Republican when we jumped in in December.” — Ann Romney
