John Boehner Cannot Make People Love Mitt Romney
By Caroline Bankoff



According to a report by Roll Call, John Boehner recently offered up a "surprisingly frank assessment" of the Republican nominee's nonexistent cult of personality. During a question-and-answer session following a fund-raiser in Wheeling, West Virginia, last week, an unidentified woman made this heartbreaking plea to the Speaker of the House: "Can you make me love Mitt Romney?" The answer was no. Apparently, no mere mortal has that kind of power.

Quote:“No,” Boehner said. “Listen, we’re just politicians. I wasn’t elected to play God. The American people probably aren’t going to fall in love with Mitt Romney. I’ll tell you this: 95 percent of the people that show up to vote in November are going to show up in that voting booth, and they are going to vote for or against Barack Obama.

“Mitt Romney has some friends, relatives and fellow Mormons ... some people that are going to vote for him. But that’s not what this election is about. This election is going to be a referendum on the president’s failed economic policies.

“Mitt Romney believes, just like we do, that if we’re going to get the economy back, if we’re going to put the American people back to work, we need to fix the tax code, we need to stop the regulatory juggernaut that’s going on in Washington and we need to fix our economy. Solid guy, he’s going to do a great job, even if you don’t fall in love with him.”

How can a flip-flopper be a solid man? Does he mean dense, nothing between the ears? Wooden, like Pinocchio? Solid, as in full of shit?

I hope Boehner is not going to cry any orange tears over this.

Quote:they are going to vote for or against Barack Obama.

That declaration sums up the entire Republican strategy of the last 3 years.

Nothing was done to advance the American people, the economy, society, immigration or safety.

Everything and anything done had one simple motivation, defeat Barack Obama.
