Mitt's father was the President of a car company, as well as a governor.
Is this how you define middle class????
george romney was not president of AMC until 1954, and even then executives at AMC were no where near as well compensated as similar executives at the big 3 automakers. romney was probably upper middle class at best at the time.
He didn't lay off people from his company, he laid off people from other companies that his company was hired to fix. He ended up turning around tons of companies and creating far, far more jobs than he cut. Take a look at companies like Staples, Dominos' Pizza, the Sports Authority, and Steel Dynamics, among many others, and see how many people they employ.
HE didn't do it alone. HE and his associates did it. HE is not responsible for establishing Bain & Co. HE was an employee. I don't think HE has the capabililty to come up with a solution to solve the financial problems that we are faced with, never mind run a country. What HE may know about is how to create more personal wealth for the wealthy.
I can't stand people who make promises to the People and then can't deliver! But has thousands of excuses why he can't.
He sort of reminds a friend of mine, not me of Mickey!
But Mickey is cute? And at least has a good personality. Likeable, likes everyone, treats everyone the same, can't say the same for Obama.
Economy still in the tank when election rolls around, think what you want, those many many many many Americans who lost jobs and homes under this administration, if they still cannot find work. They aint' voting for Obama.
His economy sucks, put the blame wherever, most of us know who is at fault.
President Obama seems like an outstanding family man, a devout Christian, a leader who is not afraid to take a controversial stance in an election year if he believes it is the right thing to do, and overall just a nice and classy guy with nothing bad to say about anyone.
Mitt Romney was a schoolyard bully who harassed gay kids. In his adult life, he has laid off many hardworking people from his company. He somehow finagled his way into a lower tax bracket than mine, despite my salary of $45,000 a year.
I will probably still end up voting for Romney if i think he can do better on the economy than Obama. But believe me, i will be holding my nose in the voting booth.
Actualy , if your only making 45k a yr and are in a higher tax bracket then Romney you need to seek out a qualified accountant.
But as you said I dont like Romney but will probably still vote for him, just as about 54% of the voters also say.

I don't like Romney either, but between him and Obama, (Who has already admitted to being a bully, using drugs etc etc, while the bully thing was already debunked about Romney), Romney is the tallest pygmy.
