It is comforting to know that someone on the other side

loathes Mitt Romney has much as we do.
Granted Camenker is a freeper with usual queer-adverse bona fides, but he is bracing contrast to groveling conservative twits like Jeff Jacoby who make the stupefying argument that Mitt Romney was somehow always a deeply closeted ultra-conservative on the order of Achille Starace.
Me, I don't know...that vote Mitt cast for Paul Tsongas back in 1992 just seems so irrational from the prospective of a rising man in the ranks of freeperdom.
Could it be, that Romney whom I always dismissed as a preening conservative matinee idol is really nothing but a opportunist?
Well if he is, keep in mind he is still a GOP opportunist, that means if elected he'll happily sign off on the entire conservative eschaton up to an including the legalization of witchburning as long none of it harms his political prospects or popularity.
This makes him a useful quisling in office but only if movement conservatism can muster serious political pressure on congress and executive.
And those days may be drawing to a close...who can say?
