While Romney's answer probably and/or did mean he's not ready either, I think in the most literal sense, he's correct. Based on how the Dems are STILL able to scare most people poop-less when the demagogue SS and Medicare, I don't think America is seriously ready to alter those programs either. Pity.
In #21, “the demagogue” should be “they demagogue”. Sorry.
That’s why we need a leader. Someone to turn us around from the headlong dash to the cliff.
