Having looked up his senate campaign and gubernatorial campaigns, he picks his personal beliefs to win at the moment.

It’s hard to see who he is and what he believes in until you see what he has actually DONE. And he can’t erase the facts that he disliked Reagan and his policies...

Very good assessment of Romney, in my opinion.

During the whole time he was running in the 2008 primary, I couldn't figure out what the guy stood for, for the life of me. I really didn't want to go digging to pin him down. I didn't feel that I should have to.

His record and positions on the issues that are important to Americans should have been lit up and large enough for me to clearly see. They weren't, which caused me to mistrust him.

I still don't know what he stands for.

As I replied to Noob1999, that's the whole point isn't it! Gov. Romney is not a Conservative. Even worse he is clearly the kind of politician that "picked his issues wisely" as the pundits said. A man that puts his finger in the wind to see which way it blows is the last person we need as President! We need a Conservative that knows right from wrong in his heart and is willing to stand upon his principles without equivocating. Gov. Romney is not our man.

I don't care if he is Mormon. Most Mormons I've known have a really good chance of filling that profile as the salt of the Earth. I think Romney, perhaps from a jaded upbringing by his Politico father, can't help trying to be liked instead of trying to lead. Remember George Romney even lead moderate Republicans against Barry Goldwater during the 1964 election. That means Mitt Romney has a heritage of anti-Conservativism. I asked Noob1999 to please stop this silly effort to disrupt a Conservative forum with his defeatist Progressive views.
