billvon 3,080 #1 March 1, 2012 . . . to Romney, because Santorum dared to ask people in Michigan other than republicans to vote for him! O the horror. Next thing you know they'll be letting independents vote in important elections. ===================== Mitt Romney Surrogate Says Rick Santorum Should Give Back Delegates Elise Foley Posted: 02/29/12 04:47 PM ET A Mitt Romney campaign surrogate said on Wednesday that Rick Santorum should "give back" some of the delegates that he won in the Michigan primary on Tuesday, insisting that some were obtained by nefarious purposes. "[Santorum] cheated by asking people who would never vote for him for president to vote for him in the Republican primary," Rep. Mike Turner (R-Ohio) said on a call with reporters. "I believe that he should agree to give back a percentage of the delegates that he won in the Republican primary with Democrat votes that would never support him for president." ===================== Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I think he's saying that Romney can ask all he wants but since Santorum did nothing wrong neither Santorum nor the GOP has to do anything. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Gravitymaster 0 #7 March 1, 2012 Plus this is just shit stirring from an undisclosed "Romney surrogate". Give me a break. It's more likely to be a ficticious surrogate made up by the writer to sling shit. Naw...that has never happened. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kallend 2,112 #8 March 1, 2012 I think Santorum should give back his college degrees (Bachelors' degree from Penn State, a master's in business administration from the University of Pittsburgh and a law degree from Dickinson School of Law.) He should also get his dad to give back his PhD and his mom to return her masters. After all, getting a degree is the hallmark of a snob, according to Rick....

billvon 3,080 #12 March 1, 2012 >Is Mike Turner a Romney Surrogate? From The Examiner: ====================== The defection comes as a sting to Romney, though he still has some major names in Ohio Republican politics behind him heading into the March 6 primary. They include Sen. Rob Portman, Reps. Mike Turner and Jim Renacci, and the former senator and governor, George Voinovich. ====================== From TPM: ===================== Looks like Rick Santorum got the Romney campaign's attention. On a Romney conference call with reporters intended bracket Santorum's announcement that former Romney backer and Ohio Attorney Gen. Mike DeWine has switched his allegiances to Santorum, Romney surrogate Rep. Mike Turner (R-OH) said Santorum doesn't have "the basic level of comptence" to run for president. ======================== From The Daily Caller: ======================= Rick Santorum should give back some of the delegates he won Tuesday night in Michigan, said Romney-supporter and Ohio Rep. Mike Turner, because he won them unethically by appealing to Democrats. . . . . The Romney campaign held a conference call with prominent supporters from several Super Tuesday states to lambast the former Pennsylvania senator for “teaming up with Democrats.” “Rick Santorum cheated,” Turner said on the call, adding that he should relinquish those delegates, as he got them through votes from people that would never support him in a general election. ======================== Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Romney's problem is that he has been to far left while governor of Mass and the reb's are having a difficult time accepting that. and yes you are correct that most politicians are hypocrits and liars.
