Yeah, we know Romney’s past. Just watch the debate with Kennedy. I’m actually surprised this was not used against him in the campaign. I like Romney as a person so I’m not going to kick him while he’s down. But I was wondering. As we all know, Romney is far from being a right-winger. He’s not a conservative. Now there are some that claim he’s the same as Obama. I do not even come to come close to agreeing with that.

But suppose the moderates look at Romney and see only the liberal in him and they look at Obama and are blind to the socialism that we all see in him.

What are the chances that the moderates look into Romney’s history and concluded that there really is no HUGE gap between the two on issues and since there’s already someone with similar stances in the White House, perhaps it’s better to keep the one that’s already established?

***The chances are proportional to the votes received.

2008:
OBama 69,297,997
McCain: 59,597,520

2012:
Obama: 54,773,837
Romney 53,716,689

Funny. I've already posted that people voted for the devil they know.
