He comes from and was very involved with his parents politicking, both of whom were liberal Republicans. He publicly rejected Reagan and Reaganism, and President Bush. He’s a Harvard Lawyer. He’s, mostly, lived in Massachusetts. He was elected in the most liberal state in the Union, once I might add.

Culturally he has shown no signs of overt conservatism. He was never in the Marine Corps, wouldn’t know a revolver from an automatic. Never until running for President, about two years ago, wrote one conservative article or book or gave a speech.

And now, supposedly, he’s a conservative.

He needs to earn a bit. Take one for the Gipper. He’s not even on Conservative probation. He’s just a pledge that wants to run the Frat house. Ah, I don’t think so.

His father, George Romney, was CEO of American Motors, was governor of Michigan, and even ran for President, but interestingly was born in Mexico. His family (grandparents, I think) had gone to Mexico because of persecution of polygamists in the US. George was a Mexican.

George Romney lost his presidential bid when he returned from a trip to Vietnam during the war and claimed that he had been “brainwashed.”

Thereafter, he became anti-war.

Exactly, not under my support (I’ll vote Constitutionalist first)!
