In hindsight, do any of the Romney voters wish they had voted for Ron Paul in the primary?

Honestly most didn't want to vote for any of the GOP candidates. But repubs were stuck with the choices. Behind closed doors, most republicans will tell you they don't like Romney but they have vote for him to beat Obama.

None of these people can seem to grasp the only way to 'beat' Obama legitimately was to have a better plan. And they have NO plan other than destruct, destruct, destruct.

Paul is laughable. Nobody in their right mind would choose him to be President. On the other hand, I do think there's "buyer's remorse" when many in the GOP compare Mr. Romney with Mr. Huntsman, Mr. Gingrich and even Mr. Santorum. I thought Santorum would have been the best candidate to face Mr. Obama. Such a contest would have provided the voters a clear choice as to the forward direction of the nation in the 4 years to come. What we've got is Mr. Romney, someone who an HR department probably would't hire for a mid-level management job.

GIven the possible candidates, ROmney seems to me hte best to be able to beat Obama. For me, it is anyone but Obama. I consider his polices incredibly distructive, naive, and anit business. So, no remorse here.

Romney's background makes him the PERFECT candidate to usher the socialists out of office.

It's the ECONOMY and UNEMPLOYMENT stupid!

PS: 8.3% unemployment released today.....DOOM for Obama!!

Default Buyers remorse with Romney?

Maybe.

Maybe not.

The republicans seem to have a deep-seated hatred of Obama. I think they'd willingly and gladly support anyone their party nominates to oppose him. And the alternatives to Romney were all a collection of political weaklings. This just was not going to be a republican year, no matter who they chose.

Mr Steal your pension and load you with debt Romney is the worst candidate the Repub. could have passed on to the US. His methods of job creation comes right off the old Mob economic theories. AMC this week ran Mob week and All of Mr. Steal your pension and load you with debt Romney's mentors were all interviewed.
More and more Mr. Steal your pension and load you with debt Romney is sounding like Michael Corleone " Don't worry, trust me, I know what to do". The man woudnt be given a second interview when going for a job in a convience store.
