“” I’ve spoken out against Romney as strenuously as anyone here leading up to the convention. I detest the games that were played with various primaries and with convention delegates themselves. It does not bode well, and Romney will at best be merely more circumspect about creeping progressivism, a little less quick with the trigger.
But, there is not a large difference between the two, Romney and Obama, other than this: for all his faults and weaknesses from a social and even fiscal conservative point of view, he does not hate this country. I’ve seen ample evidence that Obama does.
In the rough times that are just as surely ahead if Romney wins as they are if Obama does, I’d rather have the middling good-government type with at least some degree of empathy for and identification with Americans, than the barely concealed radical who wants to continue to damage the economy and the institutions of the United States in an attempt at remolding it.
There is no other candidate remotely positioned to unseat Obama. Obama has got to go. Beyond that, I have no delusions as to just what we’d be getting.””
I read the situation just as you do. I was for Cain, as the least offensive of the candidates, and that was due to his understanding of economics. As for Obama, he has a goal to destroy our economy and then rebuild it into some horrific socialist hellhole.Things will get much worse with another Obama term. Obama has to go. Romney may turn the economy around to a certain extent, but anyone thinking he will be conservative is delusional.
Nobody is suggesting that anyone else will beat Obama. My suggestion is that people get a grip and be realistic about the financial situation.
Need I remind you that when GWB left office, left it to Obama, Pelosi and Reid, Democrats were trusted more on every single issue more than Rs, including taxes and national defense. There were no or few polls showing Rs trusted on ANYTHING.
The R party was considered a national joke.
And we were DAILY lectured that all the polls were rigged,that the election was rigged, that GWB had no responsibility for anything that went wrong in all 8 years, just saving the economy but not its collapse, the bad stuff his last two years was all Clinton and Carters faults, and we were told we have to repeat that line or ‘we are helping the left’.
Will Romney be any better, or will it be the same old song?
