Romney....non Valk

[f6john]

I realize anything less than 100% in lockstep is not acceptable in the Democratic House.

Your realization is completely inaccurate. There are multiple members not in “lockstep”.

Thank you for keeping your batting average @ 1000. It would be disappointing to see you break your streak. You must be a great parent for your kids, my Mother never corrected me as much as you do.

Now to your point. “there are multiple members not in lockstep” assuming you are correct it doesn’t contradict my statement, anything less than 100% is not acceptable.

Looks like Republicans value lock step though.

Actually one of the things they are most envious when it comes to Democratic traits. Seldom achieved but if the Democrats keep pushing as they have, I predict they will stiffen up some more.

So, here's a thought.

Why would Romney buck the GOP and vote guilty on Abuse of Power? Total partisan impeachment. The House didn't impeach, the Democrats did. Yet he went and jumped on the Democrat impeachment bandwagon.

I'm wondering if there isn't a deal in the works. A brokered convention. Romney, now the DNC's darling, rides in to save the day.
Clearly he is willing to abandon any sense and values. He assumes Trump guilty and wants proof of innocence. Trump dashed his political aspirations. So Romney's got motive.

The DNC gives Romney the shot at Trump in 2020. Democrats don't have anyone even remotely dynamic enough for such a position. They will get a progressive VP on the ticket. Impeach Romney inside of 6 months. Probably on a unanimous voice vote in both houses. LOL. Abuse of God or some such thing. I'm sure Mitt's got closets of icky political things that will undo him.

DNC is desperate. As is Romney.

You heard it here first.

If anything, Hilary has her puppet waiting in the wings. Is he the one? When the convention is all in disarray and confusion, the Savior will come to the rescue. Don't count her out. She is not dead.

The worst thing the Republicans can do is start believing the press.

This is something that happens far too often.  One person states his desire to expel Romney and you attribute it to "Republicans".  I have heard ranking Republican Senators answer that question with how the voters of Utah will decide.

One person ? Trump Jr. is also calling for Romney's excommunication. I would imagine if the President wasn't in favor of that he would have his son recant. I haven't seen anything. I expect the drumbeat will intensify against Romney. But, he knew it was coming.

[f6john]

Mitch says there is a lot of work to do and Romney’s help will be welcomed down the line. I’m paraphrasing but while he wasn’t happy with Romney’s decision he saw it as just that and now we move on and Romney will have to deal with his constituents on his own.

[cagrote]

I've written many of my senators and reps. about many different issues.  It seems that every time the vote against the will of the people they represent, they vote their conscience.  As a representative they should vote the will of the majority.  If I send someone to represent me in a business deal and he doesn't do what i ask he is out of a job.  He didn't represent me.  With politicians, it's not always the will of the people, but their own ideals.  Trump was aquitted now pull up your big boy pants and get back to work on real issues.

[RP#62]

Yup, ole Mitt is a regular paragon of virtue.  Its funny that he's now revered by the Dems.  People have such short memories.

Seems to me the Democrat perspective is that there could only have been a fair trial if Trump would have been found guilty.

Not once have I heard from any of the Democrat leadership about Trump's right to a fair trial. I didn't see any attempt to go to any length in that regard.

The perspective has always been it can only be a fair trial if Trump is guilty.

100% correct if they wanted it to be FAIR then the house would have handled things differently. Like not keeps all Republicans out of meetings and holding said meetings in private.

I don't believe that the President's son holds a position to speak for the elected Republicans.  My point stands.

Come on Bob.

You have kids.

You must certainly know that you can't control what they say.

I've never been able to control anything that comes out of my son's mouth.

True. But, we are doling out money or notoriety to our sons, now are we. I'm pretty sure if Senior didn't want Junior to meet with Russians, to denigrate a U.S. Senator, etc. he could put a stop to it.

Thanks for attempting to memorialize my wisdom. (Was it that danged f6gal that knocked it down ?)

A few years ago Romney was a rich, capitalistic, racist, white man who put people in the poor house and ripped health insurance away from cancer patients.  Today he is a brave person who fought the system and all costs.  A man of conscience who looked deep into his soul.

 In just the last 3.5 years. The hypocrisy of the Left is utterly astounding! It is politics and I expect nothing less. I must admit I am rather anxious to see the Left's response, when our current POTUS is re-elected. Hard to beat him when you have no legitimate candidate.

[Gryphon]

I really don't know anything about him. I suspect it might be about his district and/or his chances for re-election.

As a representative of his district, isn't he supposed to vote the will of his constituents?

[Skinhead]

Maybe one of the most heartfelt, honest speeches I've ever heard on the Senate floor.

https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=siWFNYgnJdE

I knew he was lying when he said, "the allegations made in the articles of impeachment are very serious".  Oh, Please!  After you have Biden bragging in public about the same thing they accuse Trump of?  Where was the seriousness then?

They speak in the moment to best serve themselves. Not their constituents NOR the country.
