“So just who do you think he would have been a Good president for? “

“good” is a relative and subjective term. Romney would have been a much better president than BO, but there are those here who are hung up on his religion, and will make all sorts of excuses as to why they didn’t support his candidacy, resulting in the current mess we have. well you got your wish and Romney didn’t win, and now America must suffer the consequences. However, i must agree that Romney would be a huge mistake if we hope to defeat Hillary in 2016.

Such a huge mischaracterization.

It's not his religion I object to, and most of the freepers who have been against him as well. It's his progressive liberalism and his constant lying.

But you know that, you've been here a long time and this has been hashed out over and over and over again.

The real question is, why do you have to lie about him and his detractors?

Mitt Romney stated he was Pro-Life in January 2012 and then after the primaries were finished, on August 27th, 2012, he came out and stated he had always supported Abortion in cases of Rape, Incest, Life, and Health of the mother.

Mitt Romney stated he was a conservative at CPAC, and then came out in support of Gay Adoption, Gays in the Military, Gays in the Boy Scouts, after he had single-handedly rammed through Gay Marriage in Massachusetts.

While Governor he taxed everything that moved.

While Governor, Mitt Romney whole-heartedly supported Global Warming.

While Governor, Mitt Romney supported McCain's Amnesty (Comprehensive Immigration Reform).

While running for President in the Primaries, he took a position of making it impossible for Illegals to work and get Social Services in the US thereby forcing them to self-deport. After he lost the election and just recently he came out in full support of Comprehensive Immigration Reform (Amnesty).

He knows nothing of the proper role of Government as described by the Constitution (limited) and to prove that, he has had no policies that could be described and decreasing the size and scope of Government.

Finally, while running for President, he stated he wanted to implement his socialized Medicine scheme, RomneyCare, in all 50 states.

So, in short, his religion really wasn't the issue, His Progressive Liberal policy positions and History was.

Well, although I believe Mormonism is a false religion, it wasn't that which made me sure I shouldn't vote for Romney.

I know there are those, even on this site, who scoff at involving God in voting decisions. They say we aren't voting for religious leaders, this isn't a theocracy, etc. But I don't believe it's possible to put God in a box and take Him out when you think it's appropriate.

I had never prayed about voting before, but then I had never faced the choice of Obama, or a liberal with an R behind his name who was an open champion of abortion and queers. So I spent quite a bit of time asking God to show me what to do. As a result, I had a strong, definite feeling in my soul that I should not cast a vote for Romney. I kept praying---was I wrong? Wss I getting the right message? And that conviction only grew.

So then Benghazi happened, and I got scared. I voted for Romney, in spite of everything. For months I had asked God for guidance: He gave it to me, and I pretty much spit on it. Deliberately.

The next DAY, I tried to pray and God wasn't there (so it felt). It was as though I was talking to an empty void. Of course He WAS there, but due to my actions, a separation had opened between Him and me. It's only now that I am BEGINNING to feel His presence again.

So, I found out the temporal consequences of going against God and throwing my support behind a liberal who champions an anti-God agenda. I learned a very tough lesson. I won't endanger my relationship with God again by voting for a liberal or a moderate Republican. NOTHING is worth that to me.

That's no more intellectually honest than liberals claiming opposition to Obama is based on race. There is ample evidence on this site of Romney's progressive beliefs but instead you hide behind religion.

However, i must agree that Romney would be a huge mistake if we hope to defeat Hillary in 2016.

Which, given the tenor of your other posts, wouldn't stop you from perpetuating the Republican Party's problem should it nominate Romney or another liberal "Republican" in 2016. To be relevant in the future, the Republican Party must move to the right, and if it doesn't, my prediction is that it will die a deserved death.
