I will not ever try to dissuade any of you from your dearly held beliefs (I could far better tolerate a libertarian than a leftist), but I found Gov. Romney to be engaging and intelligent in person. I assume it is his pragmatism most of you find alarming, but I would not fear his election were he to be elected. He is also strong on the military which is a subject near and dear to my heart. A strong America is a safe America. An employed America is a happy America. He, at the very least, would have a better chance of keeping us free and strong than the current occupant of the Oval Office. I'd bet the farm on that!
Is that why no Romney family member has ever served in uniform since they arrived here? Or am I wrong? Talk is cheap!!
What did Romney do to boost employment in MA? Companies are getting out (by the droves) whenever and however they can, in a desperate attempt to escape the horrors of Romneycare. He boosted fees through the roof, which hurts anybody and everybody trying to make a business transaction. When I sold my house in MA, the fees ate me alive—as a *direct* result of Romney’s shenanigans.
I lived in MA while Mitt was gov. Illegals moved to the head of every state handout line. He didn’t raise a finger to stop it. He failed to use his bully pulpit to speak out against gay marriage while there was still time to possibly affect the outcome. While he was gov, taxpayers funded a GLBT ‘outreach’ group that graphically taught schoolkids as young as 12 how to perform risky and disgusting sex acts. The group that exposed these pervs was legally hounded to near-death under Mitt, while the group itself escaped unscathed.
I could go on. I’ll just conclude by saying there’s nothing pragmatic about Romney. He left MA twice the hellhole he found it. I’m so thankful to be out of that corrupt, fiscally doomed basket-case.
Wrong....I’d rather keep fighting Obama than see Romneybot in that seat. At least we know who and what BO is. Romney blows like a feather whatever the wind blows hardest.
He is also strong on the military

Romney is the draft avoiding son (he moved to France) of the infamous 1960s antiVietnam war Presidential candidate George Romney.

Mitt Romney left the GOP in the 1980s because of President Reagan's conservatism and military strength, Mitt returned in 1993 to the GOP.

WHAT DOES MITT THINK OF THE MILITARY???
Quote: Mitt Romney:"One issue I want to clarify concerns President Clinton’s “don’t ask, don’t tell, don’t pursue” military policy. I believe that the Clinton compromise was a step in the right direction. I am also convinced that it is the first of a number of steps that will ultimately lead to gays and lesbians being able to serve openly and honestly in our nation’s military. That goal will only be reached when preventing discrimination against gays and lesbians is a mainstream concern, which is a goal we share."
