In the spirit of you words, betty, including that us mortals not knowing or comprehending the will of God in Heaven and all that He bases His will upon..perhaps the following can explain Rommney and some of his clear disconnects and what some are calling hypocracy, lies, and deciet regarding his past.

There is no doubt that as Governor and while running for Senate that he took positions I do not agree with...and cannot agree with. He was elected as Governor of MA, and if he had been a true, strong conservative, I do not believe that would have been possible.

He was not, but he was running as a GOP candidate, and there are areas where he did share our principles and values.

Anyhow, he was elected and in things strongly conservative, he was powerless because the stae of MA has set it up that way and because he had an absolute overwhelming super-majoority pitted against him in the MA House and Seante.

He did issue several hundred vetroes...most all of which were overturned by that House and Senate. Reading what he objected to is something a lot of people fail to do...but it something that does say something about the man and indicates that he is probably much less the “Libral/socialist/Godless” devil some make him out to be.

Those who know him in his personal life and his business life and how he worked with and cared for family, friends, and his workers make it clear that this is an innacruate perception of the man in that personal life...and his vetoes make it clear that at the very least he is not as bad as he is made out to be in his political life...despite his clear liberal tendancies back then.

But now, after years, and in his second run for the Presidency, he is stating, like he did four years ago, that he has changed.

His stances on the issues during the campaign at debates, in speeches, etc. certainly reflect this. His campaign site and his pages on the sisues there indicate the same.

Romeny on the ISsues - Values

In fact, his platform on that site, standing by itself, if it did not have his name on it, would not be bad at all. Not perfect...but immensley and orders of magnitude better than anything coming from Obama or any of the DNC or left.

So...is he lieing and trying to fool us? sucking us all in so he can turn 180 degrees from wht he is saying?

I personally do not think so. He is sitting down and talking long and hard with many GOP political figures...some of them very conservative people whom I respect...and to a person they are coming away now endorsing him, even those who ran against him in the primaries.

Why?

Are the hoodwinked? No, I do not think so. Are they pragmatic and recognize that we must get rid of Obama? Certainly.

Crtical Endorsements for Romney
http://www.jeffhead.com/EndorseRomney.htm

But what of Romney? Where does he really stand?

What if Romney, after all the experiences he has had in business, running for the US Senate, governing in MA and now running for President twice has actually had the conservative message resonate? Is this possible? Of course it is...it has happened with many others and who were not even republican at the time.

What if he is really changing and moving to the conservative side? His positions reflect this...though many, including myself, are very wary because of his past and because now it is certainly politically expediant for him to do so.

But if he is changing, and I believe it very possible, precisely because the things he is proposing will actually work, and if he has a majortiy in the house and the senate they will work well...he will continue them. And if he does so, I expect there is going to be a dramatic and phenominal turn around. A turn around which will only solidify this change and his intention to continue with those policies...perhaps for two full terms...and perhaps leading to tow or more after him with even more conservative leaders.

So, should we really being calling a man who is at least acting like he is changing, and who has said he has changed...particulalry when the possibility of that change is so critical to our national interest and potential survival as a Conbstitutional Republic...is the answer to really call him Godless, Satanic, a socialist, a liar, a demegogue, etc. ..all of those vile things and try and convince others that he is so?

I do not think so. In fact such a course is absolutley and atrcoiously self-defeating in my estimation. It would invariably ensure, if enough believed it and stayed home or did not vote, the 2nd term of the man absolutely and verifaibly bent on fundamentally changing and destroying the Reublic by his own actions and words.

Obama - the Man who despises America

As a result, I am compelled to do absolutely nothing, either by my action or inaction, to allow Obama a second term. So I will be supporting Romney, despite his past...and will do so vigorously now in the hopes of removing Obama and witnessing and experiencing the great turn around I spoke of and I believe is possible....and with which a whole lot of very prominent and well known conservative patriots will be numbered in who I join with in that effort.

As always, you are the Voice of Reason here at FR... great post!

My husband and I - and just about everybody we know across various states - will crawl over broken glass to vote "ABO 2012" as well. The choice is obvious. Obozo absolutely cannot get another four years in which he will completely destroy this country we love.

God bless you... I hope you are feeling well.
