Romney's Campaign Manager

Gov. Mitt Romney 's top aide, Beth Myers, is likely to serve as campaign manager if he decides to run for president, Republican sources said.

Myers is currently the exec. dir of Romney’s Commonwealth PAC. She had been his gubernatorial chief of staff. Republicans familiar with the decision said Myers has Romney’s total confidence and an ability to keep her eye on the big picture. She's known as a tough manager, complimenting Romney's executive-oriented decision-making style.

Myers was formerly chief of staff to Mass. Treasurer Joe Malone. Myers got her start in Texas politics. A PAC spokesman declined to comment. [MARC AMBINDER]

Sounds good. Go Mitt!!!!

I am disgusted with the Democratic Party and this amnesty bill that was defeated today. Clinton has hired a former head of La Raza, in my opinion, a radical militant hispanic group, as her advisor to capture the illegal vote. It clearly indicates to me that she is only catering to the hispanic population. I feel the Republican candidates should emphasize that they are for border security first and enforcing our current laws, and that they would have to study the impact of the illegals on our middle class and the poor black, legal poor hispanic, poor white and poor asian communities before addressing the issue of the illegals. The Democrats have tried to downplay the groundswell of the American people that e-mailed, faxed and phoned their Senators in opposition of this bill and were so many that they crashed the telephone system on Capitol Hill today. The American people are angry and want a candidate that will represent them and if they hear the above they will gladly support that candidate. I live in Tucson and have seen the devastating effects of illegals. There are two Mexican terrorists groups, RIM and JCR, that their only goal is to take back the Southwest and then the rest of our country. I have always felt that La Raza is connected to these terrorists groups. The Democrats are determined to capture the hispanic vote for the next 30 years so they can remain in office; however, legal hispanics, as well as blacks, spoke out against this amnesty legislation because they realized their communities would have the most negative impacts of this bill. Bush has no credibility with the American people, but I believe a Republican candidate can win if they approach this situation as outlined above. Thank you.

I was a Goldwater man. I remember what Johnson did to him concerning the commercial with the little girl and the bomb. . . which beat Goldwater.

I am now a Romney man. What prevents the media from mentioning the movie "Manchurian Candidate" concerning McCain's prisoner of war episode? Dirty tricks, but its time Romney played McCain's dirty tricks game like Nixon did in his day. . . although I still like Nixon.

Nows a good time to rejoin the race
