What, did he pay all these people who’s lives he usurped? Did they feel they better help him, or else?

Romney really scares me.

He was the boss. They were on salary.
He gave them a job to do.
He was within his rights to ask them to work on this.

My guess is that he asked his employees to volunteer...and probably then paid those who camne (and perhaps those who did not) their normal salary.

Apparently he shut down his entire business to help this man and his daughter and asked employees to help...and apparently a lot of employees helped.

Nothing wrong with this...and I appreciate the fact that others have had to dig this up and report on it and that he never, to my knowledge, has tried to use it to get others to respect or like him.

I had never heard of this story.

He still has the decisions he made in Mass and I do not like them...but I also realize he was governor of a state that had an 85% House and Senate that was dedicated DNC, so it is unlikely that he was going to get a lot done that you or I would jump up and down about. He did accomplish a few good things, and may well have kept other things from being worse...but he ran on the premise though that he was against abortion personally that he would uphold it as the law of the land if elected.

I would never have gotten elected there because4 I could not say or do such a thing.

Now he’s running for the GOP nomination and says things differently.

I am supporting Santorum or Newt and hope we can get one or the other of them in there by one or the other recognizing they have to stop and support the other. The collective conservative vote can still win out here.

But, if Romney is nominated, I will vote for him because I know that I (at least) have to do all in my power to keep Obama from a second term and will do nothing (like not voting or voting for some 3rd party) that would help Obama.

But that’s just me. HJaving said that, Romney is not the anti-Christ and would be far better than Obama.

But he is also my last resort with the GOP and I still think his nomination can be derailed.
