Fact is, the Republican base hates Mitt Romney (Jim Young/Reuters)



“There is not exactly Romney-mania right now,” Senate GOP Whip Jon Kyl told POLITICO, adding that the former Massachusetts governor “absolutely” must shore up the weaknesses with the GOP base that were on such vivid display Tuesday. “Playing it safe, which Romney tends to do, is not going to get it for him,” said Sen. Jim DeMint (R-S.C.), a 2008 Romney supporter and a leading voice of his party’s conservative bloc, who called the results this week “a signal.”

After Mitt Romney's humiliating defeats in Colorado, Minnesota and Missouri last week, Republicans are getting a little nervous about their pathetic excuse for a front runner ... and they're telling him to step it up

Sorry to disappoint you, fellas, but wasn't a signal, it was the warning sirens that have been screaming for months: The Republican base hates Mitt Romney. And you're stuck with him. Or Rick Santorum. Or Newt Gingrich. Not to mention an agenda that will apparently revolve around opposition to birth control—a position, by the way, that most Americans oppose.

Good luck with that. And by luck I mean, bwahahahaha!
