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.

Same here, SF. He did pretend to be a conservative at least in the debates, while McAmnesty didn't even bother. And I liked the idea of actually having a candidate I respect. A person with a solid family life in politics is sadly lacking these days. You're right - he is at least as conservative as McAmnesty, even more so on most issues.

Sigh. Now we have a conservative-back-stabber. I think he did it yet again with his VP pick. He knew her family life was flawed and it's another way to make us look like hypocrits when we back her. He's laughing now!
