That's the description that Joe Scarborough gave to the Romney campaign this morning.

That's a damning criticism from a member of the Tea Party before there was a Tea Party. Like a lot of us, Scarborough cries out for stronger leadership of the GOP, both in Congress as well as from the presidential candidate.

That's been my feeling for a long time. I'll vote for Romney, but I'm not happy about it. He does not appear to be the strong leader that this country is crying out for. He was the best from among the likes of Michelle Bachman, Herman Cain, Rick Perry, Newt Gingrich and the like, but that's not saying much.

As Scarborough said, Romney seems to be embracing the campaign slogan the media used to describe Walter Mondale's campaign in 1984....Dare to be cautious!

Where are our strong leaders, those skilled in politics? Compare the candidates we have to choose from to the likes of FDR, Harry Truman, Ronald Reagan, Bill Clinton, even Richard Nixon. Those guys all had plans, principles, and were able to convince both the public and the Congress to follow them. They all didn't always have the political advantage, but they all achieved notable legislative and foreign policy successes. They said what they thought, made decisions they thought best for the country....and weren't afraid to take responsibility for them!

Where the heck are those people today?

Ah the old right-wing staple, if you don't like the message, attack the messenger. Scarborough seems like a very independent thinker, which is, of course, verboten among the don't deviate from the message right.

Like Coach, I'm not at all surprised that you Attack Scarborough, but avoid commenting on the veracity of Scarborough's description, completely bypassing any comment on Romney's campaign pledges. I think I know why--because there aren't any!

So let's agree to disagree on whether or not Scarborough is a conservative or a newfound liberal. What's left on the table are the planks in Romney's campaign platform. What's left are his plans for the country that he sets forth after criticizing all that Obama has done, saying he will "repeal and replace" many of them.

So go ahead, Richie, enlighten us all with some specifics that you've been able to find from Romney's campaign. What are his plans for replacing ObamaCare? Specifically, where and how will he cut government spending? How long will it be before we return to having a balanced federal budget? If he cuts taxes, what are the elements of his tax reform plan that will keep revenue neutral? What specifics has he set forth on any of those questions?

I'd love to know the answer to any of those questions left open after hearing and reading the "voidless mass of soundbites" that seem to be Romney's platform.

Richie will not have the answers and I would be surprised at any response because Romney has no positions on anything. It's why he will lose.

Isnt PERCEPTION something to behold.....our perception of Romney today....

In 2008, during the primary AND the general election campaign, our current President promised on so many occasions a comprehensive immigrant policy. He controlled both houses of congress but did NOTHING, NOR did he actually attempt to do anything.

Then, he deported in 3 years more than the previous administration had in 8 years.

He is now PERCEIVED as the saviour for immigration because of one speech where he did or rather said something but gave no details, no rules on how to do it or avoid doing it !!!

PERCEPTION is wonderful...makes it easy if we do not have to face reality !!!

What this has to do with this thread is how the media has molded two different perceptions of two different men.

You guys kill me. So pompous. Again, I'm honored to be bigger than the story that you 2 "esteemed" poster need to stomp on me personally, and make me bigger than the story. I guess with my personality it's perfectly understandable.

A post calls Scarborough a Tea Party pioneer and refers to him as conservative.

Without comment, I submit a story by the most liberal website there may be, about how Scarborough has morphed into a liberal talk show host, and you say that it's me attacking Scarborough?

If you were honest in your commentary, you could say it's the Huffington Post "attacking" Scarborough.

I'm glad you realize that calling Scarborugh a liberal is attacking him. Nobody want to be slimed with that label. A "liberal"; omg!!

I usually watch Morning Joe but not today but in my reading, there is another version of some of the things that Joe said today....Maybe you just missed it or were out of the room...

"Joe Scarborough flipped out over the 2012 election after blasting campaign finance at length on Monday's "Morning Joe."

Brzezinski was reading an op-ed criticizing Republican donors when Scarborough let loose on campaign spending. He called it a "perversion of the political system," and proceeded to criticize both parties.

"Can I just blow myself up right here?" Scarborough said. "This is a really gross campaign. You got all of these people spending billions of dollars, you got two candidates who are saying nothing." He alleged that both Romney and Obama are merely giving boring speeches without offering any concrete plans for health care, Social Security or jobs.

"They're saying nothing, but they're spending more money than ever before to say it," Scarborough blasted. "This is a gross, repulsive campaign that is sound and fury signifying nothing."

Actually, I have been unable to locate that "voidless mass of soundbites" anywhere thus farJoe was correct on that one too, Bucco. As I've said here many times, the Citizens United decision, letting loose the hundreds of millions of private money into both campaigns will likely change the American electoral process forever.

But thanks again for exhibiting your deep suspicion that anything I say is pro-Obama, pro-Democrat, and somehow carries a hidden meaning...even though I intend to vote for Romney.

Joe's comment (rant) on the "voidless mass..." was in the 6-7 AM hour.

I just watched at their website a rant he made in the MUST READ OP EDS on a NYT editorial criticizing spending by one Romney donor. He then railed on both campaigns and actually I think leaned more on Obama for no specifics on any issues, but cannot find what you are reporting

I do not WANT to be suspicious but let me be up front. You rail on issues and pretty much always point a finger at, or as in this case use someone elses finger at the Republican side. This post is a perfect example of what I said the other day. The issue is the spending by both sides, both pacs but your posts are always slanted ONE WAY and very very specific.

Then when I bring it up you say oh yeah that is correct also...you did it on a couple congressional bills and you do it all the time with Obama and Romney

It is your right to post whatever you want and to believe whatever you want, but it is becoming more than a trend with these posts...you alter your presentation to lean one way. Then later you make an "endorsement" of your Romney vote sound almost like an Obama sound bite. You can post any darn thing you want and say whatever you want to say....but every time I go off checking I find things like this...you give only the percentage of the story that will criticize one side only.

I will keep looking for the quote you attribute him to and/or a video of it.....been all over their website with no luck.

But you are a smarter man than someone to be twisting a show in order to condemn one person. I do not like nor can defend Obama, but even I have not nor will not do that, an I try very hard to put things into perspective.

I sincerely hope that my suspicions are totally unfounded


PS...I neglected to add a link for the video I referred to. Cant imagin this and the other on the same show but....

My vote will be, as it was last election, a anti Obama vote.

BUT when I speak of the media, I have great concerns about that. They, the media, are painting Romney into a corner, NOT he himself. If you notice those who post on here that are just parroting the party soundbites and such, it is much the same about him and then when you actually check it out, you find it is just garbage.

This is a good example...they rant about BOTH candidates....MOSTLY Obama and his total lack of specifics and it comes out anti Romney. That point, by the way was also made very clearly on Morning Joe this morning...ie, the money is bad unless the Democrats have it. He said that he has been saying that for years and most on the panel agreed with him.

This is not a defense of Romney...not meant to ....but I cannot stand out of context, just a bit of a lie, kind of statements. And frankly, I think Romney is in trouble because of the media painting and the fact that in the debates he will not be able to turn it around on the glib one. Facts is they discussed THAT on Morning Joe this morning...I watched that on a video clip where the amount of time given for the debates will not be enough for either of them to give specifics.

Ok...will go away, but his kind of thread is what annoys me more than the obvious little ads for Obama....tell the truth is my plea. For example, Obama has been the worse thing that has ever been in office relative to the immigrants and he lied to them, yet he is painted as the wonderful one by the media.

health care...I backed Obama on this forum actually..on his proposals and his mission, both of which he lied on and made it political and then he lost me but I have supported him in some issues and say it. I do not paint pictures that are fuzzy ! You catch me telling a lie, you tell me. You catch me presenting something out of context, you tell me

I suspect that many of the posters here have read biographies on some of our past presidents. If you recall many of them started out with many critics but eventually won them over. And it is a given that history is kinder to past presidents then some may deserve.

In my opinion voters can now pass judgement on Obama because he has had his 15 minutes in the sun and has failed miserably.

Romney on the other hand is in campaign mode. It requires give and take between candidate and voter for a variety of reasons including not turning voters off too soon before a candidate has had an opportunity to build his/her programs.

FDR was a favorite but not one of my favorites. History was kinder to him than he deserved. Many of his policies during the depression were wrong and prolonged it. Clinton would have also failed miserably but for the six years that he had to work with a Republican Congress. History also favors him more than he deserves. Nixon was a total disaster short of his opening negotiations with China. Kennedy was popular only and revered due to his demise. Truman is a favorite of mine because he could be trusted and stood by his decisions many of which carried high consequences. Ronald Reagan is my favorite because he reintroduced patriotism and pride in America and brought propserity back to America.

I believe that Romney will make a good president because he has the intelligence, experience in problem solving and decision making, humble but confident,understands the economy and is very ehtical. He unlike Obama works to build things and concensus whereas Obama's background as an organizer was alwaysto tear down and divide.

Truman....the reluctant President...if you havent read the book on his life, I suggest it.

What Romney has to do that this president could have done is spend his energy in getting the house and senate on the same page.

If you read about HOW he handled the Olympic problem, he exhibited many of the qualities being discussed !

I have read a couple books on his life, as well as a couple on Kansas City politics in which he was prominently featured. The part that is really fascinating is the period prior to his national political career. He was backed for judge of jackson county (Greater KC MO.) by the pendergast machine, but refused to do their bidding after he was in office. Still pendergast admired him. At the University of Missouri in 1964 when his name was brought up in a political science class, he was booed by many in the lecture hall. Funny how those perceptions change with time.

A little more from Morning Joe...

"MSNBC’s Morning Joe co-host Joe Scarborough fell into some hot water earlier this month when he made a sweeping (and inaccurate) generalization about the NYT‘s election coverage. His assertion, that the NYT had not reported on former Democratic presidential candidate John Kerry‘s wealth to the extent that the paper has on current Republican presidential candidate Mitt Romney, was backed up by TIME‘s Mark Halperin. Halperin said he didn’t “recall” extensive reporting by the NYT on Kerry’s wealth.

This morning, Scarborough’s co-host Mika Brzezinski read an excerpt from a NYT Sunday editorial specifically criticizing Sheldon Adelson, a multi-billionaire who has said he may donate $100 million to defeat President Barack Obama‘s reelection bid.

“I think it’s unfortunate that you only get one side of the story on the editorial page. Where are all the [liberal billionaire and Democratic donor] George Soros editorials?” Scarborough said indignantly, apparently not having learned anything from the last time he went down this road. But Halperin, unwilling to be a fool for the second time, was more cautious. “There might have been some. I’m sure our friends at the Times will send them to us,” he said.

To be sure, we weren’t able to find any NYT editorials calling out the influence of Soros’ donations in elections. Kudos to Halperin for not blindly backing the host."

You're kidding me right? Why do you want me to post Romney promises or plans or ideas or whatever it is you think I'm supposed to research for you O' Fearless Romney Voter??

I don't need to do that. There's no way I'm voting for President Peron......I mean Obama, and that's all I've got to say about it. I don't need to justify Romney's qualifications or platform because for me it's irrelevant.

The one thing I know is that Romney is an All-American freedom loving capitalist who understands the private sector. There's not one of those things that applies to Obama.

I'm sorry if my immense distaste for the Obama Presidency is irking you.

Nice little bit of editing of my quote. It was a short post, there was no need to truncate it , but I know why you did. It's a cheap ploy.

Your first sentence is ridiculous. The "veracity" of my claims? What a joke.

My point was clear and concise. I don't need to blather endlessly as you do. The time for all the concerns that you're kvetching about was in the Republican Primary, and that boat has sailed, I'm so sorry to tell you.

Romney is the candidate. What else do I need to know. You think any amount of useless rhetoric from you, or some other liberal moderate, is going to change my mind and make me think that Peron, I mean Obama, is worth considering so that he can devote another 4 years to devolving this nation of ours?

I love debating liberals who refuse to admit who they are. It's so much fun.

Later.

You just can't quit me, can you? By the way, that confidence - it's really misguided arrogance sorry to say.

You and VK always personally address me first when I post. What more is there to say?

I love debating people who sucked off the union teat for their working life, took their union pension, and then turned on their union pals. Classy!

Ah, now you show your true colors and a decided lack of class. Thanks for the demonstration for all our intrepid posters.

I think VK is probably more serious minded than I, but you should see me laugh at my computer as I read your posts and compose mine. You are a hoot. I hope my fun isn't disturbing to the millions of folks who read this forum.

Even though you "got nothin" you still can't help get the last post in. You are indefatigable as well as being a cartoon character.

You're starting to make it a habit to call me names. You've showing a really mean streak here and I know you're pleased with yourself.

Now you can go ahead and respond with another puerile remark.

This discussion has become far too personal, even for the political forum. Please get back on topic or the thread will be closed.
