You keep bringing up the olympics as an accomplishment of his.
I asked you a direct question about what his accomplishments as Gov were.
I notice you're not answering that.

Mitt's laying out his ten point plan here to solve problems.

I'd really like to know what he did while he was in a position to do some real good.
Not just what he'd like to do while thinking about campaigning again.

I'm giving you the chance to prove that he can do more than just talk a good game.

Romney’s main accomplishments as Governor included
covering up the BIG-DIG forever (for campaign contributions)
and imposing BOTH gay marriage and RomneyCARE and
ROMNEY DEATH PANELS without a single voter having a say.

Some say his greatest accomplishment was destroying
the Mass Constitution by imposing RomneyMarriage to satisfy
his lust for control (Is not Romney the preObama, again?)

I only brought it up once. Someone said he couldn’t change a tire. I mentioned that he seemed a bit more accomplished than that.

I didn’t ask how those saying Romney was incompetent were doing with their multi-hundred-million-dollar businesses.

This is not a thread discussing Romney’s accomplishments, it is a thread discussing a 10-point plan to improve the economy.

Or at least it would be if people weren’t so hung up on hijacking the thread to discuss the political fortunes of a person who isn’t running for an office which isn’t up for election for 3 years.

I have no interest in presenting evidence, much less “proving”, that Romney can do politically. I presume you don’t either.

I do however believe Romney has proven his worth as a businessman, and it used to be that even his detractors would begrudge him his accomplishments.

Not that it matters really in this thread — nobody is arguing that the points are good because Romney knows what he’s doing in business. (I don’t argue from authority).

In fact, nobody is discussing the points at all, which is the point I’m trying to prove in this thread — that the RDS is so bad that it has spilled from an entertaining if not useful task of keeping Romney from winning a nomination he’ll never win in 2012 (since he couldn’t even win it in 2008 when the field was wide open), and is now infecting FR, keeping us from discussing valuable topics of critical importance.

Actually, though, a few kind freepers have risen to the occasion and given their opinion on the topic. Most are still stuck in “Ack!!! Romney!!!” mode.

I guess I’d prefer to be discussing Palin’s 10-point plan, at least then people might discuss the plan (although I imagine in such a thread nobody would be allowed to criticize any of the points).
