....we don’t need to be told of his views and past votes, etc....
Step back and ponder that statement. And for heaven’s sake, get a grip.
If hearing about the extremity of Romney's liberalism is "getting old" -- what bigger warning sign do you need that you're about to make a big mistake? A year, two years, into a Romney term, how "old" would it be getting then, as you watched him serenely frog-march the entire Republican party to the left as moderate Republicans and his Democrat "friends" across the aisle supported the Beloved Romney (after all, Americans voted for him in droves!) in his "progressive" quest to "fix" the health care problem, the gay discrimination problem, the global warming problem, the abortion problem, and the judicial problem, by doing all the things Democrats do.
But you are busy squeezing your eyes shut, putting your fingers in your ears, and chanting: "nanananananananana ... we couldnt' survie another four years of Obama we couldn't survive another four years of Obama nanananananan...." in order to make yourself sanction giving more power to liberals -- and that is EXACTLY and ONLY what your vote for Romney would do.
