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.
