I'm amazed at how he keeps trying to refer to himself as the governor who reached across the aisle and was bi-partisan. The record shows that he vetoed something like 700 out of 800 bills that were brought to him and the state legislature overrode almost every single one of them. He was about as effective as a bump on a log in Mass.
Romney is a pathetic LIAR and world's biggest FLIP FLOPPER
We in MA know very well how bad partisanship was when he was around....
In primaries, he ran away from his MA record but now he is all for it????
You have to give Romney and his campaign credit. They said they were going to do it. They telegraphed the punch five months ago. They told the entire nation that there would come a day in which everything Willard Romney had said about anything in his entire seven-year quest to be president would be rendered, in the memorable word of Nixon White House flack Ron Ziegler, "inoperative." They told us quite honestly that their entire campaign was going to be based on an ongoing argument between the Willard Romney who ran for the Republican nomination and the Willard Romney who thereupon would run for president. They told us he would renege on his previous positions, and he has. They told us he would reverse his field over and over again, and he has. They told us that the only real principle to which the man will ever hold firm is that he will be utterly unprincipled.
There is no nation in its right mind that would put its foreign policy in the hands of the Willard Romney who showed up on stage here in Boca Raton on Monday night, particularly since he had so clearly abandoned everything else he believed on the subject for the purpose of fronting himself as a moderate in order to run out the clock over the next three weeks. He knew nothing and said less. But the debate will be scored as no better than a tie because, well, all the options are too miserable to contemplate. I think if Romney had called for drone strikes on the headquarters of the National Education Association, he might take 47 states. Especially if he couched the raid as a deficit-reduction scheme or an attempt at education "reform."
"Romney has publicly demonstrated no core convictions beyond his obvious belief that he should be president. He apparently thinks that simply not being Obama is qualification enough."
All politicians lie, distort and shade the truth from time to time.
The difference with Romney is that he never tells the truth about anything or he lies so often that it is impossible to tell when he is finally being honest.
Which is the real Romney:
The one that said he would support the overturn of Roe v. Wade?
The one that said he supports a women's right to choose?
The one that said abortion should only be available in cases of rape, incest and life of the mother?
Keep in mind that all three of those have been Romney's position at some time during this campaign and that is only one example. A person could spend days listing all of Romney's flip flops and outright lies just from the last 12 months.
How can anyone vote for a person that is completely unwilling to state his positions and let the chips fall where they may? Does anyone really want to elect a President that needs a focus group to tell him what he believes on that given day and for that given audience?
