Probably true, but Romney isn't the same caliber of honesty and integrity that Buddy is - many of us will leave it blank or write someone in (maybe Buddy) before voting for Romney. He's probably the only one we could have put up that will not be a noticable improvement on Obama.
It just amazes me that he is even considered by the RNC to be a valid choice for President. Recall "HillaryCare" and the uproar that created, and that was before the explosion of the Internet (although Jim Robinson was rallying the troops then too! Thanks Jim. :^) ) - the poor turnout for Dole against Clinton's second term "because it was his turn', even though he was too old and too stodgy? Silly buggers haven't learned squat.
