Sorry. That’s an appeal to authority. I can think for myself very much, thank you. I live in Massachusetts and have followed Mitt for near twenty years. I know him, politically, like my own heartbeat.

He’s a liberal, nanny state elitist, that has little conservativeism in him. Matter of fact, I have never, ever heard him mention Locke, Burke, Montesquieu, Hyack or any classic philosopher.( I don't think he is well read, nor formally educated about political economy, at all ) In short, if he were to be a conservative, he wouldn't know why.

I suspect most people take his constant traditionalism as conservativeness. They are in a common error.

Didn’t he finish first in his class at Harvard and didn’t he build a 40 billion dollar company? He must have read something, of course, you probably have accomplishments much greater than those. Would you like to tell us about them?
