Hugh Hewitt on the "undeniable" greatness of the Romney Mormonism speech:
Here’s the objective measure: When was the last time that Rush Limbaugh, Sean Hannity, Michael Medved, Fred Barnes, Charles Krauthammer and me all focused on the same subject and all agreed on the merits?Let's see- how about every fucking day of the past 15 years?
Mitt Romney's candidacy is just astonishing to me. He probably has the most impressive resume of anyone running in either party, but he is so transparently, obviously full of shit that that alone will likely keep him from the nomination.
I'm also amused by this description of White Sox GM Kenny Williams as "baseball's Hugh Hewitt." Who does that make Ozzie Guillen? Michael Savage?
Posted by Stephen Silver at December 7, 2007 04:21 PMRomney was a consultant, a Governor hamstrung by an opposition legislature, and head of a corrupt Olympic organizing committee. Bill Richardson was Secretary of Energy, UN Ambassador, diplomatic go-to guy whenever anything got really, really bad (North Korea, Sudan, etc..), and speaks native-level Spanish. Too bad that, as full of crap as Romney is, Richardson is just as bad at campaigning and getting his message out. Richardson would also be the chubbiest President since Taft, and the ugliest one since Nixon, both powerful strikes against him.
