"Conservative, PRO-Capitalist, ANTI-CRONY-CAPITALIST Right. Romney is not now and never has been a Capitalist."

Crony capitalism is when corporations are intertwined with government and the government favors them over everyone else. Think GM, GE and Solyndra. Using that commonly accepted definition, how is Bain Capital participated in Crony Capitalism?

Conservatives don't hate wealth. They don't hate someone who was born wealthy. That is the democrat party.

Your right, he is more truly a corporatist. Look it up and do some research.

Romney is allot of things: What he isn't is a Capitalist or a Conservative.

The reason why Romney is a poor candidate is because he is everything that the Leftists so wrongly claim that the Republicans are. He is a son of wealth who has used his family's wealth and power to increase the wealth of himself and a small cadre of investors at the expense of the larger society. He is by definition not a capitalist, he is a corporatist.

It is highly beneficial that we as conservatives and free-marketeers expose him now before he becomes the nominee.
