I will agree that Romney is liberal, but one thing he is not is ANTI-American.

Please elaborate. What exactly does this liberal stand for that is not ANTI-American? Perhaps your definition of what America represents differs from mine. By large, all things that push towards a progressive liberal agenda push away from a Constitutional American foundation. That's why they call it "progressive" and "liberal". Romney is woefully inadequate to be the standard bearer for anything conservative ... anything "PRO-American". Romney doesn't "hate" America ... Neither does Obama. So what? Neither is willing, even capable, of returning America to her conservative values, because they do not share them.

Romney doesn't "hate" America ... Neither does Obama

I guess I actually should have used your term. I like it better. You say Obama doesn't hate America. Exactly how differently would he be governing if he did then? I would say that Obama DOES hate America, at least the America formed by our Founding Fathers. Does someone with a strong belief in our founding tell one of our lifelong adversaries "After the election, I will have more flexibility"? He talks down to the Supreme Court about unelected officials, yet he has tens of unelected Czars producing and enforcing legislation that never saw the halls of Congress. He, along with Pelosi and Reid, has taken this nation further down the road of Fascism than I ever dreamed I would see.

You really believe that Romney would govern like this? Romney is not even close to my best pick, but I have a strong feeling that he would govern this country to the right of McCain. That's not saying much, but its a hell of a lot better than watching the final destruction of EVERYTHING we used to be as a nation.

Obama's second term will see the dismantling of our military, he has already halted our space programs, and he allies himself with our lifelong adversaries and distances himself from our true allies (Israel). Hell, he has even pissed off Canada and Great Britain. He shows NO signs of desiring an energy independent USA as he has wasted billions on "solar" shell companies while shutting down all public land drilling. He has strengthened and has given marching orders to union thugs to shut us down and worse case, he may get another one to two more Justices in a second term. He has spent and spent and spent and shows no signs of slowing that down.

And what about race relations? Do you think that they will improve or worsen in the next term? I'm sorry. Romney may suck, but to draw a moral equivalent between the two shows a lack of understanding or an unwillingness to believe in the depths that Obama will aim for in his second term to finally "Fundamentally Transform" America.
