But he does believe that he will become a god with his own planet to rule.
You are arguing emotion and motivation. I'm talking about what Romney has actually done. None of it conservative, including strangling business in Mass by passing Cap & Trade.
It is arresting to imagine a Romney White House, inevitably filled with as many former Bain colleagues as each of his other public ventures have been: The PowerPoints, the 80-20 jargon, the clinical separation of decision-making from ideology, the detachment of those decisions from moral consequence, a persistent blind spot for people as people. It would represent the final ascension of a perfectly American type, one that has already remade the culture of business. I once asked a Bain colleague of Romney’s how Romney thought of his own core competence. “I think Mitt thinks he’s good at being Mitt Romney,” the colleague said.
You sure didn’t want to argue about what Newt has done. Or the fact that he hasn’t had an honest conservative bone in his body for 18 years. Even then in 1994, it was a GOP victory, not a conservative victory. You just listen to words you like and then create a false picture forgiving the sins of those you choose.
Apparently the voters just didn’t agree. That picture of Newt plopped on a couch with the dragon queen ruined his credibility. After Bachmann got slammed, Cain bugged out, Santorum got savaged, who the heck did you think we were going to get?
So here we are, may not be what we wanted, I am not happy it is Romney, but we want Obama even less.
By the way, the religious aspect doesn’t interest me, unless that person is a muslim. I am sick to death of a few screeching loons running around spitting hellfire and hate at good people who are just terrified of 4 more Obama years.
