Mitt Romney bused in his Univision crowd in Florida last Wednesday, and threw a tantrum and refused to come onstage when he didn't like the introduction. Annette Taddeo of the Miami-Dade Democratic Party says, "Pretend, pretend, pretend... I'm surprised he didn't come out with a sombrero on his head." Watch it.
Mitt Romney is a FRAUD.............anyone who buses in his own crowd & strategically positions them or has them applaud on cue is a phoney...............hopefully one of his hired groupies will go rogue & speak out.............that would make a great interview & story.............what does he advertise the job on craigs list?

Business as usual for the GOP. This strategy was more visible starting with Sarah Palin. This is what the Tea Party/Koch brothers/American for Prosperity does to try to fool the public.

Nobody wants to think anymore. Look at many in the media who are not trained jounalists, or don't have any degree. There are a few exceptions, like Rachel Maddow, with a PHD,. If some have their way, all Arts, and anything which is good for the brain, will be gone from education, forever. I will not accept that, after growing up with a mother who taught music, and piano for over 45 years, and have two sisters who have followed in her footsteps, with music teaching. Things such as music and instruments teach one how to think!!!!!! Remember that America? Thinking! What a concept!

Mitt's Ohio bus tour has turned into a bus caravan. Mitt's campaign bus with secret service and 20 Americans for Prosperity buses filled with Kochroaches. The Tea Party Traitors turned in their derogatory signs for Romney/ Ryan signs, changed their revolutionary clothes for dumpy golfers clothes, and changed from spitting angry epitaths to cheerleading for the Mittster. The only thing missing is high kicks and cart wheels.
BTW - Mitt should have bussed in more than the West Bloomfield LDS folks for his big rollout at Ford field in Detroit this spring. Heck he could have fit 200 or 300 buses in the empty space.

Linda, Scarborough said something to diss Romney? Amazing...

What's next Romney, a break-in at the Democratic headquarters???? Like Scarborough said, he's full of nothing but ambition just like Nixon was. That ambition was the undoing of Nixon and it will be the undoing of Romney.

This is also reminiscent of the GOP neocons using the anti Castro Cubans during the Cold War. They didn't give a damn about Cuban Americans or their lives or their suffering. They just wanted to go to war with Cuba and invade that country and take over so they could have their gambling casinos and sweat shops. They saw the Cubans as a great source of manual labor just like they see Mexicans. Only back then the consequences were far more dire. We ended up on the brink of nuclear war because of the war machine in Washington trying to double cross Kennedy, telling him an invasion of Cuba would be a piece of cake and the citizens would rise up against Castro and defeat him which was a bold faced lie. The Bay of Pigs was also a staged event based on a lie that nearly brought a full out nuclear war.
Everyone is right about this guy, he is DANGEROUS not only to his own party but to the country. Win at all costs no matter how many lies or false events are staged.

This is about the 3rd or 4th time Romney has staged an event ahead of time. He did it at the NAACP, at that University in Indiana, the coal miners were told by their bosses they had to be there only they weren't even paid for the day and the plant was closed. Those students at the university were told it would be a town hall type and they could ask questions, Romney knew it was not going to be ahead of time.
People aren't stupid and they certainly aren't fooled by this. You can tell just by looking at the faces of the crowds behind him that the people aren't that pleased to be there. They look rather like zombies. That's what Mitt wants all of us middle class to become if he gets elected. To be seen and not heard. Just voiceless operating robots designed to make millions for him and his cronies, earning just enough to pay for food and housing, nothing more.

I think your comments carry all over the country---not just where you live. When I was growing up, there was no question that children would be educated. Guess what? We were taught to think for ourselves.... Nowadays they do NOT want children to think critically. I think I heard recently that in Texas, they do not want children to question the wisdom of their parents or their church. They want them to repeat the RepubliKKKan mantra. "No taxes on the rich! No taxes on the rich! Down with socialism!" Oh, but keep your hands off my Medicare---how STUPID is that! This started back in the 1980s I believe with the origins of PNAC. This was from a RepubliKKKan think-tank, many of who served in the GHW Bush White House. It has forever changed the course of this country. The only way they could bring us to third-world status is to stop educating our children. Then we will be glad to have an American job and will put up with anything to keep it. Just like Mitt gushed over the Chinese female workers in that factory with barbed wire---take a long long look at the future of the American worker. Open your eyes America! With the exception of the boom in the Clinton years, we have been headed in this direction since Reagan. All for the rich and wealthy---the rest of us are freeloaders. Too bad we don't have an insider in the IRS who could leak the tax returns Robme is trying to hide---now that would be a Wikileak coup. But even if we did so many of the GOP/Tea-baggers would not understand it or think the Obama supporters tampered with them.....

A sombrero would have been a good touch. It would have gone along with the instant Boehner like tan Mitt put on his grill to relate to the Hispanics. Maybe Eastwood could dust off one of his old serapes from A Fistfull of Dollars and talked to a La silla for effect. This chump is the most plastic candidate I have seen in decades. They're going to need a body bag to put Mitt in after the debates. Barack will have him on the ropes landing combination after combination.
