Sore Loser? Mitt Romney Goes on the Attack Against President Barack Obama
Mitt Romney, it appears, has recovered from losing the presidential election race last November and is now spouting out again his views on politics. Romney has been relatively quiet since taking a handy defeat against President Barack Obama. The loss embarrassed the Republicans and Fox News, whose analysts had predicted that Romney would win by a landslide.
In an interview with Fox News, his first TV interview since Election Day, Romney chastised President Obama for “playing politics” in his handling of the automatic budget cuts, or sequester. Romney seems to forget that the Republicans, since the start of the Obama presidency, have branded themselves as the party of “no,” hardly allowing themselves to compromise or negotiate on anything.
He said that Obama was “berating Republicans” and “blaming and pointing” instead of running the country. He told Fox News’s Chris Wallace, “That causes the Republicans to retrench and to put up a wall and to fight back.”
“I see this as a huge opportunity and it’s being squandered by politics,” he said. “The hardest thing is watching this golden moment slip away.” He went on to say, “I look at this sequester and also the expiration of the Bush tax cuts as an almost once-in-a-generational opportunity for America to solve its fiscal problems,” he said. “I see this as a huge opportunity and it’s being squandered by politics … by people who are more interested in a political victory than doing what’s right for the country.”
In the interview, Romney spoke of how he lacks “credibility” because he lost the presidential election that was believed by many Republicans he could win. Also his negative comments on “Obamacare,” the national health care law, didn’t help his campaign, he said.
Romney also said he underestimated the appeal of “Obamacare.” He said that he still wants to help the Republicans support all the people in the United States but said, “I’m not going to be telling the Republican Party, ‘come listen to me,’ the guy who lost is going to tell you how to win.”
He went on to say, “We have to do a better job in bringing minority voters in to vote for Republicans … to help them understand why we’re the party with the ideas to make their lives better.”
His wife, Ann Romney, says that she is having a hard time getting over the election loss and that sometimes she cries because she thinks her husband could be performing as a president better than Obama is. “I’m mostly over it, but not completely,” she said. “You have moments where you go back … and feel the sorrow of the loss.”

The people on the street know the major reason that the Republican party is against President Obama is because of race.These old white men are terrified that having an African American president is the beginning of a takeover of power by African American people. The racism is so blatant it is frightening. They would have the country go down the drain and blame president Obama. It is obvious the Republican party does not care about the 99% of us.

Romney, shut up. Wait for your aliens and go away remembering no one bought your lies then, and won’t buy them now. He beat you, all of you. Get over it and keep keeping the little man down. Actually, go to Mexico and visit your relative. If no one else misses perhas they do. And please in the name of my God, do not run again fot anything.

Mitt,
You’re no longer relevant, in fact you are irrelevant. If you want to do your sick party some good, show them what it means to truly represent the poeple that elected them. No more of this obstruction simply because the President is in favor of it. Need I have to remind you and the rest of your party, YOU LOST. When those poor kiddies from the tea party go back to their districts, even the gerrymandered ones, they are going to find out that they have little chance of winning in 2014 unless they straighten up.

You Racist Pieces Of Trash Better Leave President Obama Alone Or You Are Going To Be Making Funeral Homes Rich. President Obama Is Trying To Clean Up This Mess You Racist Republicans Created. You Better Leave Him Alone.

I’m like Ann Romney – I cry every so often – thinking how many votes this manikin got – millions of people voted for a guy who doesn’t worry about poor people, who thinks the dog likes it on the roof of the car, who isn’t concerned with ‘the 47%’, who doesn’t remember pinning the gay kid down in boarding school and cutting off his hair (when everyone around him was traumatized for life by the incident). Artese said it first: STFU.

I saw the interview and the Romneys were actually pretty circumspect in their comments about President Obama. Yes, Romney said he’d be doing a better job if he were President. (No surprise there.)
Obama had plenty of negative things (even some that were untrue) to say about Romney during the presidential race, and none of what the Romneys said could be construed as racial by any reasonable person.

Romney you lost, you and your wife need to get over it. The people spoke, they chose the finest and the best, you have just learned a very vaulable lesson, just because you have money does not make you better than anyone else, it just means you can do more, go more places, have more homes, etc., but remember one thing, you can only live in one house at a time, drive one car at a time, regardless as to how many you have. Apparently none of it impressed the majority of the folks in the USA! Shut up and go back into hiding!

Wow there is a lot of hate out there!
I like the President, voted for him twice.
That said he seems not to have control over anything! It always is someone else’s fault when something not going right.
Like last week when all of the illegals were released, he knew nothing about it, homeland security knew nothing about it, know one knows who authorized the release of hundreds from prison.
Another thing, all departments got a 10% increase in there budget for t his fascial year, they decided to take 2,4% away to pay down the debt and what do we get from the president, 750,000 will lose their jobs, logic says if they didn’t have to layoff last year, why would they now have to do it with a increase of 7.6%.
This is playing politic’s with peoples jobs in the balance, if one of the job layoffs happens to be yours you might think different.
President Obama wanted the job, he won it twice, when do you think he will start acting as the real president!
I know we all care for him because he looks like us, we care for him because he makes life easier for us. You have to know their is more to governing the most important country in the world than taking from the haves and giving to the have not.
Look, I’ve looked into the mirror and decided I was the only reason I was not where I wanted to be. I made some adjustments, I’m not dependent upon the government or anyone else, right now the government is taking 31% of every dollar I make, everytime I turn around I have some new paperwork or rules to follow.
President Obama has yet to come up with some way to improve the economy, in my opinion he seems content with what I will call the 40-60 rule, 40% of the population supporting the other 60% of the population!
The President is the..
Chief Guardian of the Economy, Chief Legislator,
Commander-In-Chief, Chief Diplomat, Chief Executive.
The job may be to much for him to handle, all of his hats seem to be to big!
Reagan and Clinton had big problems, even Bush had 9/11 that was a big deal also, at least these Presidents jumped in and resolved the problems!

You forgot to mention that on day one the republicans stated their number one objective was to make Obama a one term president. So instead of truly trying to make the country better for ALL Americans they’re being obstructionists at each and every turn! So IMO your talking points suck!

Boy, “James Johnson”, you sound like a Rethuglican Plant if I ever heard one.
Like Marc Anthony, you “Come not to bury Caesar, but to praise him.”
Your whole Riff is straight Fox News distortion and bullshit.
My question for you is, Why in Heaven’s Name did you vote for such a terrible guy like Obama, TWICE?

Wow… Still utterly clueless! The poor little rich boy who ‘Started out on 3rd Base and thought he’d hit a home run.’
Every time I hear this whiny POS, my faith in American democracy is restored. Yes, as a Latter Day Saint, he may be God in his own world, someday, but, lucky for us, IT WON’T BE THIS ONE!

Hey Mitt!! You LOST!!!!! If Americans wanted you, they would have
voted for you. The only way Annie is going to be first lady is if
a President divorces his wife and marries her!!! NOT going to happen.
Get over it!!! Maybe just maybe the President will give you a job..

Let the poor dumb bunny be. He is still trying to process the idea that the majority of the American people didn’t want him or his ideas. How could this have happened? They tried every trick in the book and had tons of money. They literally stopped some voters at the door of the polling place by shutting the doors while voters were still on line. But it all backfired. And you know what’s weird? The Rebublicans think they can still win elections by saying a few nice lies, pretending that they care about somebody who isn’t a millionaire or a billionaire. Good luck with that!

Thank the Great Creator that Mit Romney was not made president.If he was president it would be like the South winning the Civil War.Niether him nor any member of his family ever served in the armed forces and in a Morman Church a black man could not be a priest. Briggam Young said that they had the blood of Cain.

You lost PUNK, GET OVER IT.Go back to practicing INCESS IN YOUR CHURCH.
You had your chance and you blew it, so get off the stage it is over for you as a politician. Maybe you can become a commentator for Foxtv? How about that you could influence the DUMB Republicans. Hopefully that would finish the republican as a party.

MITTENS:
IN JUNE, YOU WERE ASKED IN AN INTERVIEW. WHAT WOULD YOU LIKE TO SAY TO THE PRESIDENT? YOUR RESPONSE WAS “GETTA PACKIN.” ANN’S RESPONSE WAS “IT’S OUR TIME NOW.”
FROM THE 47%, “YOUR ROBOTIC SEVERE CONSERVATIVE ASS THAT LOVE THE HEIGHT OF THE TREES, WILL NEVERRRR BE PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES.” NO POTUS OR FLOTUS FOR YOU OR ANN.

Two years after graduating, Obama was hired in Chicago as director of the Developing Communities Project (DCP), a church-based community organization originally comprising eight Catholic parishes in Roseland, West Pullman, and Riverdale on Chicago’s South Side. He worked there as a community organizer from June 1985 to May 1988.’
