At Romney's Party, Waiting for More Victory

By Glenn Kessler
BOSTON -- Mitt Romney's "victory party," at the Boston convention center, is still awaiting its second win. A few hundred supporters are packed into a small space, standing around, quietly chatting and quaffing $5.50 beers as they await the returns. (The mood becomes a little more boisterous when a Romney surrogate is being interviewed for television.) The stage has a huge American flag behind it and the ceiling has "MittRomney.com" beamed on it.

When Massachusetts was called for Romney, a trio of state representatives addressed the crowd. "You know what's great about tonight? The people who know Mitt Romney the best went for Mitt Romney the greatest!" state Rep. Jeffrey Perry declared.

I declared Dr.NO a "Spoiler" Months ago. Huckleberry can share the Tittle.

The "Change" Rhetoric the candidates and their loser supporters claim is very hollow. They are going full out to prevent any such thing from ever occurring!

Shame on them! SHAME!

John McPain is the WORST thing that could have ever happened to this Year's Republican Party. Amnesty RINO McClown is BELOVED by the exact same old school Senators he will be re-joining after being soundly defeated by the Dims due to the lack of any support from people such as myself, AFTER he wins the Nomination due to the support Mitt is losing thanks to the IDIOT Paulites and Huckleberries inadvertantly helping "Bad Change" McPain!

A McPain Nomination will mean I will NOT Vote, and will curse Dr.NO and Huckleberry daily for the FOUR LONG YEARS this Country will be suffering because of their EXISTANCE!

SHAME on Them, and their Foolish Supporters! Mitt Romney is the BEST thing this Country has seen in a Century trying to help this Country, and trying to Fix the Mess Professional Politicians like McPain are PART OF!

Fortunately, I live in TEXAS, and Fortunately, TEXAS will be the decider!

In Texas, we not tolerate Fools! Just ask Saddam!

How has the Romney victory in Mass. been determined? According to the numbers on this site, McCain is leading, no? Are there exit polls for the state that The Trail has access to that I haven't seen?

How is this even worth a comment? Time to quit Mitt.
