So, gathering from what you wrote, if we don’t vote for Saint Rick, we are all going to burn in Hell and GOD will smite the crap out of all us evil Heathen non believers.
OK,...........Isn’t that special!
I'd rather see him go over the heads of the media and make a principled case for Reaganomics. But that is a matter of tactics.
Romney is in favor of cutting taxes, cutting spending, and cutting regulations. I think he genuinely supports the Ryan plan, a free market solution to the entitlement mess.
Newt is more conversant with these issues, but he has a negative image. Many conservatives like him, but they're voting Republican in any case. Santorum's focus on social issues is, I think, also a deal breaker for too many independents, women, and youth. He's also too negative. Romney is genial, and he can win.
When it comes to past hypocrisy on issues, well, Romney survived in left-wing Mass., and Newt and Santorum have even worse outrages to explain, in my estimation.
I don't think he has anything in common with the criminal reprobate Democrat Corzine, or stock picker extraordinaire economic ignoramus Buffet. He's not blue collar. He's rich. I have no problem with that. And I respect private capital firms.
