Sounds like a plan.

And to the Romney detractors: Maybe the guy has changed his mind on these things. Everyone’s entitled to one change on a topic, when further evidence is presented.

The problem is with those who flip-flop back and forth. If he or anyone else does that from one day to the next, based on popular opinion at the time, then that’s a problem.

Would you rather have another four years of 0bama?

If the Republicans can’t come up with a candidate that can defeat Obama, then we reap what we sow. Romney is like McCain: trying to move to the left to win. It didn’t work with McCain, so why on earth would you think it would work with Romney? And, given what he did to MA, what reasons could you possibly offer for him being any better than Obama?

How do you change your mind AFTER Reagan? AFTER Stanford, Harvard Business School, AFTER living in Massachusetts under Dukakis, AFTER being in finance?

How could one person be so politically clueless into almost his 60’s, with that type of education and experience, and as Mittbots always say, his smarts, business experience?

Either he was/is so politically clueless, which he is, or he is life long liberal Republican type.

In short, as far as conservatism goes, Mitt just doesn't get it.

Mitt never mentions Hyack, Friedman, any of the hundreds of free market thinkers, economists, writer. Never, not once.

It is because he does not know them, and that is because he doesn't have use for them. He already had internalized liberal, leftist, socialist thinking through his father and mother and his social connections.

This is why his speeches are so about as inspiring as a furnace installer ringing of a parts stock list.

His speeches, all of them, are boring, dully, mechanistic laundry lists. And the speeches are that way, because he isn't ideological, at all. He is a creature of his liberal, upper income, Michigan/Massachusetts/Harvard upbringing.

Let us say a person had Mitt's back round and was truly a liberal, and wanted to buy in, win over, sell, pitch themselves as a conservative. They would do exactly what Mitt is doing now. Conservative ideas don't need or are built on one man. We don't need Mitt. Together we have more than enough money, support. Any true conservative will do. Mitt will just use us as he did the citizens of Massachusetts as a annoying stepping stone.

He has never been a conservative and will never get my support. I held my nose and voted for McCain only because Sarah was on the ticket. That will not happen again.

How about one change on every topic?

No Romney.
