“...Romney is a capitalist with no social conservative bona fides....”
Um.....No.
Romney is a market predator, a Gordon Gekko like vulture that played bait and switch with companies that swallowed his illusions and representations only to find out that his funding was a dark knight set out to kill them.
Romney is not a capitalist in the sense of an Ayn Rand hero, a hero that builds great things and brings good things to people by hard work and brilliance.
No Romney is a deliberate liar and a cheat. His victims attest to that. If Romney stayed on as a market predator, then fine. Let the market backlash against him. But Romney learned it’s more a sure thing to wield political power.
Romney has no moral code, no core; he is a phony through and through, an opportunist who lies and deceives people that he gains the trust of; Romney is a con man.
Romney is a liberal because the unions cut him deals. They have money, he has money. To keep the status quo, Romney cuts deals with unions and does their bidding. They get liberal legislation signed, he gets political power.
What does Romney offer conservatives? Nothing, absolutely zilch.
I think your guy is Dennis Kucinich. He also has an irrational view of venture capitalists and their role in a vibrant economy. To each his own.
