The Salt Lake Trubune said this (and much more), in its endorsement of President Obama:

Quote:

From his embrace of the party's radical right wing, to subsequent portrayals of himself as a moderate champion of the middle class, Romney has raised the most frequently asked question of the campaign: "Who is this guy, really, and what in the world does he truly believe?"

The evidence suggests no clear answer, or at least one that would survive Romney's next speech or sound bite. Politicians routinely tailor their words to suit an audience. Romney, though, is shameless, lavishing vastly diverse audiences with words, any words, they would trade their votes to hear.

People reconsider their positions all the time and change their mind. Why not own it and move on instead of denying your former position that is well documented and recorded?

Will those 12 million new jobs be fact checkers?

You have got to be kidding. Obama's people do not let any records go without thoroughly examining them. They do that with all the people Obama has run against.

Now if you had said we know almost nothing about Obama's records, I would agree. He has spent millions of dollars to keep them buried.

Please post something to back up your statement.

Romney must hide his records with Barry and Michelle's school records. Good choice.

Talk about no need to know, I guess you like Pelosi's statement on Obamacare---we need to pass the bill before we know what is in it. Now that's a load of Pelosi that affects us personally, right now.

hahahaha 12 million new jobs hahahahaha
Like all those new jobs that never materialized in Mass when he said he would get all his wealthy buddies to invest. Please - the only jobs that Romney ever created were for MBAs at Bain Capital. Go get yourself a MBA from Harvard so you can get one of the 100 or 200 new jobs Romney will creat.
