Sure thing there. You are a fool by choice so...its kind of obvious when Romney has made headlines for his flip flopping and his washington insider crap..not that hard to figure out.

You've got choices for Gov. Johnson and Mitt Romney - why didn't you include an Obama-type?

Had the Op included an Obama type, then he would have gotten more responses. But, he didn't mention a character trait that include "compulsive liar"....

I want the professional businessman who KNOWS how to fix things and make it run.

Shooting hoops and slapping some high fives isn't on my high list of priorities.

Of the two candidates, Romney is the one who believes change comes from outside DC. Therefore, the first option is Romney.

One that is the MOST UN PC....Use that freedom of speech and don't care who hears something that offends them. That's the real man for the job.

We didn't euthanize that woodchuck by way of firearm or "dispatch" him.

He was tearing up the cornfield. We "shot" or "smoked" his ass.

Track records matter to me. Obama's track record does not line up with description #1, especially that change come from outside... unless you are counting the UN and company as the outside. That's why I will vote ABO.

I'm assuming the flip flop is Obama. Promise everyone the world and flop to the opposite right?

You don't have my selection in your poll.

SOMEONE WHO LISTENS TO THE PEOPLE. That way, you don't end up with a full tank of gas for your car, when the problem was a flat tire to begin with. Neither one of these fools, today, is willing to stop talking long enough to LISTEN when someone is trying to tell them something. They've jumped onto their own conclusion, and will be riding it right over a cliff.

You guys are too funny. From reading the poll, everyone knows that the top choice is Obama and the bottom choice is Romney. You ain't fooling no one but yourselves with your spin. You are embarrassed that your candidate has a loosing character so you try to deny reality.

Romney himself says that change can only come from inside Washington and the Obama campaign used that line against him. I know its inconvenient for you to accept but that's a fact.

Flip-flop is Romney's middle-name. Everybody knows that. In fact Romney is viewed as even more wishy-washy than John Kerry was in 2004. Romney is probably the first candidate in history to have taken all possible positions on the issues of the day. He lacks a core and a compass. He's the etch-a-sketch candidate.
