Romney calls Hillary 'timid' on Iran
The battle for Zionist hearts and minds begins . . .
Of couse, who will emerge victorious depends on who can make the most pressing case for the US to attack Iran (on behalf of israel).
Republican presidential candidate Mitt Romney on Friday accused Democratic front-runner Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton of "timidity" regarding the security threat posed by Iran.In a speech to a retreat of conservative congressional Republicans, Romney lashed out at Clinton for telling a pro-Israel dinner that a dialogue with countries hostile to Israel — including Iran and Syria — is needed to promote peace in the Middle East.
"At this point, We don't need a listening tour about Iran," Romney told the Republican Study Committee. "Someone who wants to engage Iran displays a troubling timidity toward a terrible threat of a nuclear Iran."
* * *Responding to Romney's criticism, Clinton spokesman Mo Elleithee said Friday: "Senator Clinton believes that no option should be taken off the table when it comes to preventing Iran from developing nuclear weapons. Given his record of flip flops, the only thing that's timid are Governor Romney's convictions."
Weak, very weak.
Not likely to get her anywhere with these mad-max zionist warriors.
As long as Clinton is prepared to INCLUDE even the POSSIBILITY of diplomacy, she loses by default.
Romney, who served one term as Massachusetts governor, said that rather than engagement, economic and diplomatic isolation should be the priority.
Last year, when former Iranian President Mohammad Khatami visited Harvard University, Romney criticized the visit and ordered state agencies not to cooperate if asked for assistance.
On Thursday, some 1,700 attendees applauded as Clinton cited her efforts on behalf of the Jewish state and spoke scathingly of Iran's decision to hold a conference last month that questioned whether the Holocaust took place.
"To deny the Holocaust places Iran's leadership in company with the most despicable bigots and historical revisionists," Clinton said, criticizing what she called the Iranian administration's "pro-terrorist, anti-American, anti-Israeli rhetoric."
That should get her some brownie points - maybe a dog biscuit, or two.

When I read that, my mind's eye had Condi Rice as hard boiled Auntie Entity, Karl Rove riding the ferocious, but challanged Dick Cheney as MasterBlaster, George Bush scurrying out of his hole as The Feral Kid, and pre-stroke Ariel Sharon was the great Lord Humungous, growling that the Arabs have been "greedy with you' gazoline". Every role was filled except the The Man with No Name.
Oh yea, that's right - he was Mel Gibson.
