“Answer this simple question, by a simple answer. Yes or No would suffice:

Was Romney’s election as governor of Massachusetts “a step away from democrat party power” there, YES or NO?”

Please forgive me for not falling into your unreasonable thinking...Romney was elected governor of Massachusetts, but Massachusetts is not anything like the demographics of the rest of the nation. Was Reagan elected governor of California? Is California conservative? But, I think we will all agree that Reagan influenced a growth in conservatism, even though he did liberal things as governor...

His governance in Mass. IS RELEVANT, because he led the politics of the left there during his whole term: Romneycare, coercion of free citizens to buy insurance or punishing them with a $2,000 fine, if they don’t obey his order, pro-abortion bill, coercing the Catholics to provide abortive pills and adoptions of children for gay couples, anti-gun bill, anti-business (increased the taxes by $700 million), pro-gay marriage even when the Mass. Supreme Court declared it UNCONSTITUTIONAL.

I don’t trust Romney, as he has NO conservative credentials WHATSOEVER.

As for the “R” attached to his name, in his own words “stands not for Republican, but for reformer”. If the GOP establishment supports a non-Republican candidate in 2012, that’s their problem, not mine.

In conscience, I cannot vote for a “reformer moderate with progressive views”, as Romney described himself, while seeking the place of governor. And he acted like one.

Wow...learn some basic political history...or at least look it up before you spout off. CA pretty consistently voted Republican prior to 1992. The state as a whole is largely conservative ( by geography...not population) with the exception of the large metropolitan areas of SF and LA.

Comparing Reagan and to unprincipled SoS like Romney is laughable at best.

Don't bring the vileness of mitt's words here! Got it?

Only evil repeats evil/deception! You couldn't expect anything else but EVIL from a PRO HOMO baby killing KNOWN LIAR candidate.

Only someone living in a hole under ground, mental institution or in jail or he married you in his same sex marriage ceremonies. NO one else is that clueless. MA is AMERICA - and not some 3rd rate/state. He just does what EVIL does - brings anything down to it's evil level.
