There was a time Republicans believed they could nominate any dog who could raise enough money and then win the general election against President Obama in 2012. Their bigotry and hatred of the man and his promise so warped the mind of Republicans that they nominated a man who was once a liberal before he became a conservative before he became an ultra-liberal (Running agains Ted Kennedy for senate seat, while bashing Ronald Reagan), before he became a liberal-conservative (running to be Governor of Massachusetts) , before he became ultra-liberal (running for President since 2007).
Republicans assumed, early on that the biggest attack against Romney was that he was a flipper. But Newt Gingrich seems to have foreseen the future when he simply called Mitt Romney a liar. Those lies may finally be catching on to the man who would be King.
A resurrected report, that has now seen the blessing of no less a new agency, than AP has now gone to press - and the claims that Mr. Romney has been lying through his teeth about his business record has now come to light.
While Mr. Romney and his campaign have failed to release any shred of tax information prior to 2010 - this for a 65 year old running for President (You will think he has records dating back to the 1970s, at least), SEC records are shedding lights on what lies behind those dark recesses of what we now know as Romney's business records - or is it experience?
For one, Bain capital filing with the SEC showed Romney as the sole owner (100% sound pretty much as sole ownership to me), Managing Director, Chief Executive (or whatever else you want to call the big honcho) of Bain, as recently as 2002. Unfortunately, Romney's campaign claim to fame as "Job Creator per excellence" was marred by happenings at Bain since 2009. So conveniently, Mr. Romney has been lying to the nation that he left Bain before the end of 2009. Now he seems to have forgotten that SEC filings are often available to the public, and that someone somewhere might dig into this. He even forgot that his FEC filling in 2003 - on becoming Governor of Massachusetts, on which he claimed sole ownership of Bain Capital, might still be available. He assumed we are too dumb, and that we have amnesia.
Yes, indeed, the Republican party may have collective amnesia, but the whole country does not. Mr. Romney's proclivity with lies seems to be catching up with him - finally? Perhaps, the entire party of charlatans will be revealed for what it really is.
They lie because they think we can't remember. They lie, because they believe Americans are fools. And now, perhaps, the Press can have a field day, as a nomination gets unravelled!

He really not looks like a future president in that video, he even can not handle that situation. Not everybody can be a president, but it's the most wonderful part of the election, who will be last winner? :)
