Mitt Romney is a non-starter for me. Nice man, nice family, but no thanks.
Mitt isn't nice, he is a self absorbed liar that has a compulsion to lie that he seems unable to control. His destructive obsession to claw his way to power for reasons that he himself doesn't seem to know, reveals an incredible lack of character.
Nobody knows why Mitt wants to be president but we all know that he wants it desperately, we cannot look at his life and say "oh, he has a lifelong conservative vision for the nation", he was a lifelong liberal that was against conservatives and he named them when he dumped on them. He discarded everything that he was before 2006 to adopt an entirely new set of values, principles, a new vocabulary and even a new identity for a different electorate. Romney is the ultimate "empty suit", he is a clingy salesman that is driven by a compulsion to make the next sale and nothing else, (we hope), some wonder if he may be harboring some sinister family hatred towards conservatism.
