On the one issue that is driving this election, the economy, their is a difference.
To say otherwise is foolish.
I don't let the GOP-E decide what the election is "about." My principles don't change or shift in the wind. And I won't sell out issues like life and marriage because someone tells me the election isn't "about" those. It's always about those. And Romney is a big government socialist who never met a welfare or entitlement program he wanted to cut or reform. He also likes to invent new ones. There is no significant difference on that issue between him and Obama other than the GOP will avoid fighting Romney on those because they don't want to "embarrass" their candidate, as they did last week on the $6 billion student loan interest subsidy entitlement program issue that Romney ceded to Obama.
How? Because Romney's a bid'nessman?
Please.
He raised taxes, just like Obama. He killed jobs, just like Obama. He gave us socialised health care, just like Obama. He supports the jobs-killing environmentalist agenda, just like Obama.
These are all facts that are on the record, whether you personally choose to believe them or not. Most of them have been documented numerous times here on FR, much to the chagrin of the Rom-kneepadders on here. To try to pretend they don't matter is simply evasion and purposeful obtuseness.
