Please do rag about Romney, and I say that with no irony.
Complaining about politicians is one of the oldest and greatest American traditions, next to freedom.
Mitt has waffled all over the place, in an attempt to garner whatever kudos he can that go with his locale. Why should anyone be surprised that in Massachusetts, Mitt did as Massholes do? The national climate is different, and Mitt will have to fit in or suffer the inglory. In the meantime any thinking person has to give the boy some credit for business sense; he knows up close and personal what helps American enterprise and what poisons it. If he only differed from Barack Obama in that one narrow way it would still be worth the change.
I'm skeptical about Romney having a lot of economic sense. More than Obama, for sure, but that doesn't mean he's good, by any means.
In my profession, I interact with corporate executives frequently. I have been surprised by how ill-informed some of them are on basic economic issues. Remember it's these type of people who often lead the charge in Congress on stupid policies because it is advantageous to their company or industry. Given Romney's enthusiasm about the auto bail-out, cap and trade, and other economic issues, I doubt his economic instincts are that great. His economic solutions always involve government intervention.
If I'm proven wrong about Romney, I'll remind you that I was. If I'm proven right about Romney, you'll have to remember that I warned you about Romney because I don't play the "I told you so" card. I'm really sure that we're being sold a bill of goods in Romney.
