My husband has a similar theory. He was all for Romney (since hubby is more moderate than I and an MBA and tall to boot, he feels a certain kinship, perhaps) but then said that Romney would seem to “perfect”. Heaven forbid we have a candidate with a family that isn’t messed up to some degree . . .

Or a candidate we would actually respect for way they handled their personal life! I may not have agreed with Romney politically on everything, but I do respect his character and values. And as politicians go, that says a lot!

My view on Romney, frequently mis-characterized around here, is that of the remaining dudes after Fred got out he had good personal character and seemed to have a clue as to how the economy worked. As far as I am concerned on the issues I care about he is at least as Conservative as McCain. Plus he did not attack Viet Nam Navy vets to prop up that fool John Kerry like McCain did.

Romney has never been my ideal candidate but given the choice between him and McCain it is Romney. I do not like his changing of the mind on abortion and his healthcare in MA is a mess that needs fixing.

On abortion. People seem to forgive some people for many things, ahem, but refuse to forgive Romney.

Ok now all you that want to accuse me of being a Romneybot, Be warned I wrote some JavaScript that blocks your posts on my screen so save the bandwidth for others to use.
