Whoever receives the nomination will have all the publicity and name recognition they need. Mitt’s an ‘executive,’ does that prepare him? Hunter is a proven, conservative politician.

At a time when elected officials, Republican and Democrat, have openly betrayed the clearly expressed opinions of their constituents, perhaps now is not the time to install another "proven" politician as President regardless of his conservative record. I suggest that it is time to go "outside the box" and elect someone with proven "executive" skills - a non, life-time career politican, who knows how to get things done and knows how to take a stand when he knows he's right.

His lifetime skills? Nah, not for me. He has an irrational belief. That points to an irrationality I don’t want in a President regardless of how much money he made by investing money for other “rich” people.

Or how he stepped into a “mess” that resulted in no criminal convictions, and was prompted by a anonymous letter placed on a reporter’s desk (Olympics). Mitt came in as a figurehead, perhaps already selected by the powers that be in Utah, to “rescue” America. I for one don’t buy it.

I don’t know if America is ready to put their trust in a slick investment officer, with a propensity to irrational thinking.

You might be able to back Romney, but the big question is, can America? I can’t. But we know what dog I have in the fight....you can, and you too have your favorite dog. But now we need to be thinking of vetting a man for POTUS. Mitt has waaayyy too much baggage IMHO to secure a win for our side.
