Mitt Romney Adviser: 'We're Going To Win Michigan'

A few new polls were released on Thursday morning, showing Rick Santorum with a small lead in Michigan. The American Research Group had the former Pennsylvania senator at 38 percent, former Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney at 34 percent, Rep. Ron Paul (R-Texas) at 12 percent, and former House Speaker Newt Gingrich at 7 percent. Meanwhile, the Detroit Free Press released its own poll, showing Santorum ahead of Romney by a margin of 37 percent to 34 percent.

The numbers were culled from interviews that took place before last night's debate in Arizona, so the dials may have moved since then. But the Romney campaign did not exactly seem eager to downplay expectations on Wednesday night.

"We're going to win Michigan," Romney adviser Stuart Stevens told reporters in the spin room after the debate.

I hope somebody wins something. I want the Conservatives to get down to retiring obama this November. All they are doing now is giving him a break. As an Independent, I am sick of it. Let's get this mistake our of our house.

I love Mitt's response to John King's question.

"You get to ask the questions you want and I get to give any answer I want. "

Or words to that effect.

"What is your plan to save the economy? " "12' Yes, I stole that from Colbert.

If you can sell this four ring circus of ROMNEY, SANTORUM, NEWT AND PAUL to the american public, FORD MOTOR COMPANY should bring back the FORD PINTO exactly as it was created in the 1970's and sell it as a fine luxury car

So, Romney's lackey predicts victory in Michigan with confidence. Why not? Scrambling 3 or 4 percentage points is child's play when THE FIX IS ON.

Just a few of the hundreds of sites on what Mormons believe...
Do you really want this guy in office? Why not a Scientologist­ or Satanist?.­..

These are all projected negatively to encourage more misunderstanding. It would really be great if someone out there ... someone that really KNOWS the truth about these 'so-called beliefs' could explain truth as it is.

Read all of what they say they believe, not just the happy spin at the beginning.

Some of their beliefs are completely beyond the pale of what most people would consider sane.

MITT & Mormons believe...

Apparent dinosaur fossils are the machinations of Satan. He shaped rocks as if they had been bones of past giants to deceive the very elect.

Satan can't enter the temple.

Satan has control of the waters.

Satan can't read your mind.

In the celestial kingdom we'll all have personal seer stones.

The Elders will save the constitution.

Christ will establish new Zion in Missouri.

Where did you find info that "MITT" believes exactly as The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (Mormons). Interesting. I find a few differences

I have researched all religions for the past 30+ Years, I was raised Baptist, Attended a Christian Church for 20 Years spent 2 years in Mexico feeding the homeless living in the dumps. Played in a Christian Band and put out over 10 CD's. I appeared on TV doing suicide prevention with police officers in California. I can speak and write Hebrew and Greek.
I have many friends who are part of different religious backgrounds including Mormons and they have given me information on the Mormon Church. Research anywhere on line. The Mormon Church does not hide it if you just ask...

Very interesting...... I wasn't going to throw my pearls before swine, but I will say this: Satan can't enter the temple..... The Elders will save the Constitution and Christ will establish a Zion in Missouri and Jerusalem..... Have a nice night...

I'm going to win planet Vixuslata. Well, probably not, but saying it makes as much sense as this Romney adviser claiming he'll win Michigan.

MITT & Mormons also believe:

God was once a man just like us but became God

God had actual sex with Mary

There is no Trinity. God is God, Jesus is the Son of God and the Holy Ghost is someone else.

ALL other religions are of the Devil

Blood atonement

United Order

The entire Temple Endowment

The Garden of Eden being in Missouri

The sun and the moon are inhabited, because God would never let so much space go to waste.

The flood story and the Tower of Babel story are literal.

Evolution is false.
