So, between the two that have a chance of being elected president in 2012, who will you vote for? The Democrat Socialist, or the Republican Socialist?

Sadly, the Republican Socialist because I've already seen how terrible the Democrat Socialist is and could not stomach in any way shape or form for more years of it or understand why any rational person would prefer four more years of it when the Republican Socialist is, at least, pro-business and would cause the markets to begin expanding again, causing more investment and more jobs.

The Democrat Socialist only means four more years or brutal pain and I've already been out of work enough times under his presidency to not want four more years of it. I'd vote for a pet rock before I'd do anything that might put Obama in office another four years.

I can tell you're one of those who absolutely refuses to vet a candidate's record, and simply makes up your mind based upon campaign rhetoric and sloganeering.

These were the economic repercussions the last time Republican voters elected Mitt Romney:

Mitt Romney’s Dismal Record

"As U.S. real output grew 13 percent between 2002 and 2006, Massachusetts trailed at 9 percent.

* Manufacturing employment fell 7 percent nationwide those years, but sank 14 percent under Romney, placing Massachusetts 48th among the states.

* Between fall 2003 and autumn 2006, U.S. job growth averaged 5.4 percent, nearly three times Massachusetts' anemic 1.9 percent pace.

* While 8 million Americans over age 16 found work between 2002 and 2006, the number of employed Massachusetts residents actually declined by 8,500 during those years.

"Massachusetts was the only state to have failed to post any gain in its pool of employed residents," professors Sum and McLaughlin concluded.

In an April 2003 meeting with the Massachusetts congressional delegation in Washington, Romney failed to endorse President Bush's $726 billion tax-cut proposal."
