I figure that at least Romney states he is against amnesty now before the election.

He also stated he was for Roe before he was after Roe.

He supported amnesty before he was against it.

I have utterly no idea what Romney stands for, other than he wants to be president.

And any candidate with that mindset is a danger, no matter what letter comes after his name on the ballot.

Well, I heard the explanation for his switch on abortion and it’s plausible.

I haven’t heard his reasons for switching on amnesty, though. That’s issue #1 for me.

I’m pretty confident that McCain, Huckabee, and Guiliani will sign an amnesty bill. All 3 passed much worse laws/bills helping illegals than Romney did. So that’s why I think there’s more of a chance he’ll stick with what he is saying at this point.

“He also stated he was for Roe before he was after Roe.”

So did McCain, yet many say he’s a ‘true’ prolifer and Romney is not.

“He supported amnesty before he was against it.”
He never supported amnesty nor the McCain-Kennedy bill nor the Z visa. He immediately opposed amnesty when the bill came out and has been consistently against a ‘special path to citizenship’.

“I have utterly no idea what Romney stands for, other than he wants to be president.”
Then you are not even trying.
This is a thorough explanation of his record, accomplishment, positions and platform.

On September 18, 2007, Governor Mitt Romney released his Strategy for a Stronger America, a 68-page compilation of his policy proposals to bring conservative change to Washington and meet the new generation of challenges confronting our nation.
In the Introduction of the document, Governor Romney lists some fundamental principles he would use to guide his decisions as President to meet the challenges facing our country:

• Our military superiority cannot be compromised

• Our government must remain federalist and governing should be conducted as close to the people as possible. Washington today is not the solution, it is part of the problem

• Money and resources are best used when they remain in the hands of the people. A competitive America is one where taxes are low and government is small

• Free market principles built the American economy. Unleashing the power of free markets is key to our economic future

• Culture determines the strength of a nation. American values must be cherished and developed in each generation

• Government should be accountable and transparent. Government service is a privilege and government officials should be held to the highest ethical standards
