UPDATED CINCINNATI, Ohio – Former First Lady Barbara Bush has recorded robo-calls for Mitt Romney in two Super Tuesday states: Ohio and Vermont. “We have known the Romneys for years and believe Mitt is the best man to lead the country for the next four years and Ann will make a great first lady,” Bush says on the call, which is hitting households in both states ahead of Tuesday’s primaries. On the call, Bush, wife of President George H.W. Bush, refers to Romney as “our friend.” Donald Trump has also recorded an automated call for Romney, as he did in Michigan. Both of the calls were paid for by the Romney campaign. Notably, Ann Romney has been talking up the former first lady’s support on the campaign trail. At an appearance in Georgia last week Mrs. Romney disclosed that Bush “maxed out” to the Romney campaign, writing a $2,500 check. And in Columbus, Ohio on Friday, Mrs. Romney said Bush recently told her, “this is the most important election in my lifetime, and for a woman who was the wife of a president and the mother of a president, that’s quite astonishing.” Ohio, where the race is tight between Romney and Rick Santorum, represents the second-largest delegate prize on Super Tuesday. Romney is expected to do well in Vermont, a state that borders two Romney strongholds — Massachusetts and New Hampshire. Notably, Bush tweaked the original script of the robocalls in Ohio and Vermont, cutting out a mild attack line against President Obama – ”I’m supporting Mitt for one simple reason: America cannot survive four more years of Barack Obama, and Mitt is the man to lead America, and we need him now” – and replacing it with a personal reference to the Romneys. Jim McGrath, a spokesman for the Bushes, said that “Mrs. Bush changed the script.” Here’s the Ohio script: “Hi, this is Barbara Bush calling from Romney for President on behalf of our friend, Mitt Romney. We have known the Romneys for years and believe Mitt is the best man to lead the country for the next four years and Ann will make a great first lady. So, please vote for Mitt in the Ohio primary on Tuesday. If you have any questions, just call the Ohio campaign headquarters at 614-664-3485, or email them at TeamOH@MittRomney.com. And again don’t forget to vote for Mitt Tuesday. Thank you for your time. This call was paid for by Romney for President, Inc.” The script Bush’s Vermont call is nearly identical though she adds, “Your vote really counts.” Here’s the audio of the Ohio call:

ick.
I wouldn't vote for Romney as a toilet scrubber.
Romney is taking a dive and letting Santorum win one. Anything Bush is the kiss of death.
Obama's watch stopped on 24 May 2008, but he's been too busy smoking crack to notice.
You think Rick will win Ohio? He is going to be at Dayton Christian School tomorrow at 9:30am. I have a job to do or I would go. Maybe I still will. I didn't get to make it to Romney. Paul isn't going to win Ohio. I can't believe i'm saying this but I'm tempted to vote for Santorum.
So you are at least somewhat pleased with Obama. I saw you spinning for Obama on his birth certificate earlier.
I saw you spinning for Obama on his birth certificate earlier. OMG!!! You are one of... Never swear "allegiance" to anything other than the 'right to change your mind'! I'm feeling ill now, BARF! The more Barbie calls that go out the better Santorum's chances, I guess. He'll never be president, no chance, so why bother voting for him? Did Barbara's sexy voice, stampede you over to Ricky?

Well at least the bitch has something to wrap her 'beautiful mind' around... Never swear "allegiance" to anything other than the 'right to change your mind'! I did!
Never swear "allegiance" to anything other than the 'right to change your mind'! I really have no idea. I never though McCain could ever get the nomination, so I'm not very good at guessing these things. From a strategic standpoint it might be good if Ricky won Ohio, just to knock Romney down a peg. If it leads to a brokered convention, there may be hope for some positive change.

Yeah I'm one of those constitutionalists. I support the second amendment too.
You only like those provisions of the constitution that you agree with.
Almost every country in the Middle East is awash in oil, and we have to side with the one that has nothing but joos. Goddamn, that was good thinkin'. Esso posted on 2012-01-13 7:37:56 ET
