BOSTON - Republican presidential candidate Mitt Romney has decided to pull his advertising from South Carolina and Florida, in a sign of trouble for a campaign that badly needs a win.

Good. I don't have any respect for him after he told a medical marijuana patient in a wheelchair that he did not support medical marijuana. Romney is just too much of a cold hearted soul.

He could save more money by just pulling out of the election altogether. The net result would be the same- that is, Mitt Romney not as the nominee after spending lots of money and doing lots of campaigning or, Mitt Romney not as the nominee after just quitting now.

"Cold-hearted" is giving him too much credit; you have to be human to have a cold heart. Romney is a damn robot who went from being the most liberal possible Republican to a right-wing caricature just to get elected. Whoever wrote the robot's software needs to be dismissed from politics. Can you imagine a more self-destructive way to run for president than to deliberately tie the anchor of George W. Bush around your own feet?

Romney sucks. There are candiates I respect but would never vote for (Huckabee, McCain, Hillary) in a primary but then there are caididates that are LIARS and SCOUNDRELS and Romney is one.

Romney will win Michigan and get a bounce and then get the hell whupped out of himself in South Carolina and Florida and that will be the end of him. At convention time there will be 3 Republicans standing- McCain, Huckabee and one other that will not be Romney.

I don't think it's a foregone conclusion that he'll win Michigan. McCain won in 2000, and Huckabee might appeal to enough cultural conservatives that Romney can't pull it off. That would be a massive humiliation, but it could very possibly happen.

This man learned a valuable lesson. You can't win the nomination for your party simply by trying to look Presidential. The man lacked substance almost as badly as Bush. He should drop out and disappear.

If Romney wins Michigan, Paul will be in the perfect position: a divided primary with no clear leader. Super Tuesday is going to be a blast. Word is America is about to find out who Ron Paul is and what he stands for. He's got more money than Huckabee, McCain, and Thompson combined. His ads will be running non-stop nationwide.

You think Fox would acknowledge his existence then?
