SNL: Get Ready to See Mitt Romney…‘Raw and Unleashed’

SNL Presents Mitt Romney Raw and Unleashed

Mediaite:

As much as the media might want to pretend it isn’t true, Mitt Romney is the probably and predictable winner of the Republican nomination for president. Unfortunately, however, his staid demeanor is not nearly as exciting as Herman Cain’s sexual harassment scandal or Rick Perry’s inability to remember government agencies. That’s where the “Committee To Elect Mitt Romney” comes in. By showing the “raw and unleashed” side of Mitt Romney, he will hopefully get a little more attention from the press and coast the rest of the way to the nomination.

      So SNL makes fun of Mitt Romney because:
      1) He does not have any skeletons.
      2) He does not make stupid mistakes when he speaks.
      3) He loves him family.
      Wow, you guys are right. We can’t nominate Mitt, it would be awful.
      And really, Mitt is a Marxist? Come on people, Mitt is a Capitalist. He may not be the most conservative candidate but he is far from a Marxist.
      1) He is for strong border security.
      2) He is for lower taxes and less regulation.
      3) He would repeal Obamacare.
      4) He is for a strong military.
      5) He is a proven leader.
      Get over it. He would be a very good President.

      @PGMike

      From what we know about Mitt he is indeed a great guy. But at the same time as he may be a Republican he is not the most conservative candidate up for election thus far. The truth be told he would of been great as a nominee back in 2008, much better than McCain. But right now we need a true conservative/libertarian. A Constitutional Conservative to be exact. We cannot afford another Rhino like Bush was, and we certainly cannot afford another 4 years of Obama.

      If I knew Romney would completely turn around and be the Reagan/Coolidge we need today than I would certainly vote for him in a heart beat. But I just don’t know if he will be that guy after he gets elected.

      I read a lot of the articles/comments posted here but I just do not understand why people think Mitt Romney is a progressive.
      4 years ago Rush Limbaugh is praising him as the true conservative in the race and now, 4 years later he is a raging liberal. Mitt has not chagned over the past 4 years.
      Remember, RomneyCare was endorsed by The Heritage Foundation. It was never intended to be a nation wide solution. One of the reasons it was appealing is that it empowered states to solve their own problems. I thought that was what we conservatives wanted. Don’t we like it when states solve their own problems instead of relying on the feds?
      Mitt Romney is a man of charecter, intellect, faith and great ability. We would do well to have him as our president.

      The media does care who wins. If you think the media likes Mitt as much as Obama you are truly crazy.
      Perhaps they do not attack him because there is very little to attack.
      The media loves conflict and scandal and Mitt simply has not given them any ammo yet.

    Romney is a elitist just like the rest of them.
    Well, except Ron Paul. Dr. Paul even pays back his offices left over money each year to the IRS.
    I know Romney doesn’t do that. Also, look at all the ideals and legislation Romney is now running from. He has passed a lot that he now “regrets”. Ron Paul has had the same ideas and philosophy his whole carrier and some. He warned us of everything that is happening to our nation.
    Ron Paul 2012!

      Amen brother. The past is the predictor of the future in human affairs. Romney is a pretty face with no character under it. If you listen to what he says you will find he says something conservative sounding, then when actually questioned about what he said, he will turn around and use liberal solutions. He worries me more than Obama because with him in office, a liberal republican, we have no opposition party. The libs will get more done with Romney in office than they could have got done with Obama in office. Then when the right rebels because Romney runs again, the libs will get someone elected who is even more left wing than Obama. Does that formula sound familiar? Either we elect someone who will stop the train or we can expect a genuine conflagration when the train hits bottom which will be soon. A Ron Paul is needed.

      He did not take a salary to be governor of Massachusetts.

    I have my reservation about Newt with his scandals & he tends to put his foot in his mouth at times. Although I always liked Romney, he wasn’t my first choice but after seeing one candidate after another self destructing themselves, I now favor Romney. Obama is searching real hard to get some dirt on him, latest all the computer data from the time he was governor.

      These other candidates are not self destructing. You have fallen for the ruse.
      Each and everyone of the other candidates have been taken down by the media. The media will control the outcome, because people believe, as you do, that it’s the candidates self-destructing… when it’s, in fact, the media incessantly focusing on the trivial to give the appearance of self-destruction.
      Make no mistake. The media desires a progressive leader. They prefer Obama, but they are covering their bet by enhancing the most liberal candidate’s chances of being the opponent. They win either way.

    Mitt Romney is the only moral candidate we have. At least he hasn’t had 27 wives, groped a bunch of other women,, been sloppy drunk half his life, isn‘t in China’s back pocket, Or, insist that a gay organization is a charity. As I said before, I am neither Reptard or Demtard but I will vote for Mitt because if the U.S. needs anything at all it’s a moral compass.

    Mit Romney = Obama light.
    He passed a health care bill similar to Obama care when he was a gov. He was Gov of a state that is anti second amendment and wants to control our ownership of guns.
    Cain seems to be the most electable, followed by Gingrich. The liberals are going to hammer on the sexual harassment. Yet some of their heroes are know womanizers, – JFK, LBJ, Slick Willie. But they will forget all of the democrat philanderers who went way beyond sexual harassment.

When the truth is, that this generation is duped into watching garbage that sells them into believing that because they watch the show they are in the SNL club of elitist socialist a$$wholes that think they are better than America. SNL is not better than America. It’s a garbage show that might have a funny skit out of 1 hr of filming.
