The same for Romney. His wicked ways are well catelogued here on Free Republic. $50 abortions, pro-gay marriage licenses, deceitful taxes, medicare fraud, etc.
Romney has a bad record...but also the governor in Mass does not have nearly the power, because the democrats there have made it that way...to stop the democratic house and senate.
What you really see in Mass is not RomneyCare...though he went along...what you see is MassCare, and MassAbortions, and MassHomosexual agendas and MassJudges. Romney vetoed hundreds of things that were over-ridden by the Mass legislature.
So, though his record was no where near what we would want, a lot of things are laid at his feet that are the real actions of an absolutely and abjectly DNC controlled State House legislature. Romney could not have stopped that in any case...either the times he tried, or the times he went along to get along (which is what most of us hold against him).
Well, now, he says he has changed and he is campaigning on and supporting things very much different than what went on in Mass. (Ie. Against abortion, for the Marriage Amendement, much better on the 2nd amendment, cleary Free Market economics, much stronger on national defense, much stronger on the borders and immigration, able to have much more power in selecting conservative judges, etc., etc.) If we deliver a House and Senate who will vote on the laws to enact his promises, he will sign them and we will be immeasurably better off that with Obama.
That’s the point. Either we let the Republic be flushed with an absolutely known quantity in Obama, or we hold Romney to his promises and commitments in an effort to have something a whole lot better. I believe that’s what LD and others are trying to say...I know it is what I am saying.
Therefore, once again, it comes down to voting for the utter wickedness of Obama . . . or not. You will not be excused through rationals and reasonings as to why you did not want to vote to STOP OBAMA. Because we do not count negative votes in our system. We only count votes "for." All Libertarians are voting for Obama. All third party voters of every type cannot ease their consciences through a bunch of logical flim-flammery because they are electing Obama. Simple, really.
