Romney endorses Mack in GOP Senate primary

by George Bennett | May 16th, 2012

Presumptive Republican presidential nominee Mitt Romney has endorsed Rep. Connie Mack in Florida’s contentious GOP Senate primary.

Mack, who has been facing a barrage of character attacks from GOP primary rival George LeMieux, was a key surrogate for Romney before Florida’s Jan. 31 presidential primary.

At a rally in Dunedin the day before the primary, Romney referred to Mack as the “next U.S. Senator from Florida.”

Romney made it official today, issuing this statement: “Connie Mack is a friend, a strong conservative and the type of principled leader we need in Washington to restore fiscal responsibility. By electing Connie Mack, the people of Florida will be sending a clear message to Senator Nelson and President Obama that their failed policies have not worked to change the borrow and spend ways of Washington.”

    Isn’t that special, one entitled rich kid endorses another entitled rich kid.

  2. Why Why Why Says:

    Why do Republicans like Mitt Romney and Allen West want to repeal Dodd-Frank Wall Street reform instead of make it stronger?

    Why do Republicans like Mitt Romney and Allen West want to reduce or eliminate the capital gains tax that already allows wealthy people to pay a lower tax rate than the majority of Middle Class families?

    Why does Mitt Romney think the government should let the housing market hit rock bottom instead of stepping in to help underwater homeowners?

    Why do the Republicans oppose putting people to work immediately fixing bridges, roads, highways?

    Why do Republicans like Mitt Romney and Allen West want to cut food stamps for the poor while increasing spending on experimental military projects and weapons systems?

    Why don’t Mitt Romney or Allen West give us ANY details on their plans for 2013 and beyond?

    What about THE MIDDLE CLASS?
