Among my worries about a Romney presidency was my fear that he would actually make big government functional and efficient.
That’s impossible. Big government cannot be functional and certainly never efficient.
There was actually a video where someone was asking people if they supported this or that position, amd indicating that it was a Romney position. The replies opposed/supported a given position based on whether or not those replying thought it was a Rmney position. When they were done, the questioner told the people that just the opposite was so, that the positions they claimed to support/oppose based on ot being a Romney position was actually an Obama position. The people were NOT non-plussed. They don’t know and don’t care about issues, this is strictly tribal voting.
