This is a disturbing piece http://www.americanthinker.com/2008/01/why_they_hate_mitt_romney.ht as to fellow Republican animus towards the former Massachusetts governor Mitt Romney.
What it sounds like is that these Republicans have Democrat envy. Disliking a candidate because he happens to be blessed by Almighty God with good looks, the ability to make money and have the money to run in the election for president.
Those of us that support Mr. Romney see him as an embodiment of the American Dream.
And there is nothing wrong with that whatsoever.
He is the new Reagan in the sense that he is an outsider that is running as such and that rankles the establishment. They know that if Mr. Romney is successful in attaining the nomination, they will be on notice that there will be a new sheriff in town. Sorry Sen. "F--- You" McCain.
We need to be grown ups and not be jealous and envious of success. That is what Mitt Romney is, a success story and a hope for the Republican party.

I like Romney!! Interesting post..
you are right 64. this piece is aimed at the fear of a romney nomination. which i hope is growing in momentum!!!
I read that NY Times articles also. Could they root any harder for McCain? They make it sound like McCain is the greatest thing ever. Meanwhile, Romney is disliked by everyone.
Does anyone else feel like McCain is being sold to us by the Old Media? And I don't think it's because he's such a solid conservative. I think that to the OM, McCain is the next best thing to getting Hillary or Obama elected...
All of this "Romney Envy" is because he is the embodiment of the American Dream. Yet, all these Republicans sound like Democrats. Like there is something wrong with having a large family, a loving supportive wife, having a career in the private sector, and making a lot of money. THERE IS NOTHING WRONG WITH IT! At least he did not have to dump his wife and marry into money as did the infamous Sen. "F--- You" McCain. Nor did he dump his second wife in a news conference as did Mayor Rudy. Anyway, you get the picture. It is disheartening to hear this envy from people claiming they are. . .Republicans! I wonder. Could Ronald Reagan have won the Republican nomination with this kind of attack?
I still think many have a problem with his mormonism. but who knows.
