Introducing Mitt Romney, "Job Killing Machine"

With the online political marketplace Intrade showing Mitt Romney as the odds on favorite to be McCain's VP pick, the Obama team is wasting no time and has started throwing mud at him. Romney made his millions in private equity, whereby broadly speaking a private company buys businesses and tries to make them more profitable before then selling them or taking them public--often by hacking jobs. Add to that Romney's decidedly, well let's say 'mechanical' demeanor, and you've got what appears to be a winning name for him: Mitt "Job Killing Machine" Romney....

Intrade is clearly being manipulated (shares bought/sold for newsworthyness sort of like buying political ads -- but really much cheaper.)

e.g., NO WAY PALIN COULD BE LOWER THAN WHITMAN, CRIST, PORTMAN ET AL -- OR THAT THAT MUCH LOWER THAN ROMNEY! Romneybots or Dems are buying Romney shares to make him look inevitable.

Despite the Dems and the allied main stream media’s desperation to see Romney as McCain’s Veep, Mitt is clearly out, with (1) Obama doubling down on the class warfare theme (McCain’s 7 houses) and (2) McCain doubling down with ads showing the hypocrisy of Biden attacking Obama in the primaries — Romney did way more than that contra McCain.

This leaves only Govs Sarah Palin and Tim Pawlenty. Pro-abortion Ridge and Dem-Lieberman were never real considerations, despite relentless media goading. Pawlenty’s lackluster TV performances, coupled with Palin pizzazz, the primacy of oil drilling and the ticked off women/Hillary voters, does now portend a McCain/Palin checkmate on the Dems. This is so albeit the Dems and liberal media dare not mention Palin’s name, that is, everyone but…..

And if there’s any question as to Palin being uniquely positioned and able to more than nullify Biden in debate, see the excellent discussion at palinforvp.blogspot.com

Team McCain, well done!!!
