Good or bad.
Yes our foreign policy would not of been so weak and we would of come closer in having a more efficient Gov.

I hope Mitt Runs, to clean up after Obama and maybe put some of the Obama Adminstration in Federal Prison.

At a minimum the super rich would get richer at the expense of the middle class.

Mitt Romney and Healthcare: Romneycare Vs. Obamacare




the USPS is losing money big time, you don't think the private sector can run it better? typical liberal, keep trying the same thing over and over expecting a different result.
LOL, don't pee on my head and tell me it's raining. Romneycare was THE blueprint for Ocare and just for your information, Jonathan Gruber was the MIT consultant for both "cares".

As to USPS, it does a fine job. One of the few government programs that does. You'd be losing money, too, if your income was continually siphoned off and diverted to other accounts for other purposes.

USPS gives me a better rate and better service than UPS and it's not so easy for me to access Fed-Ex when shipping stuff.

The "private sector" sucks at a lot of things, like banking & finance, pharma, cyber security, etc.

Typical liberal trying the same thing over and over expecting a different result? LMAO!!!! You mean like Mitt Romney running for prez?

Uh- I think it is far too soon to push Love onto any inside track on anything yet. She has to show her mettle and political skill in serving the interests of her state and the nation first.

Beauty and race alone aren't enough for her or anyone any more. 2008 already showed the nation is ready for a President who isn't white or male. If beauty was a prime consideration, Palin would have carried McCain into the White House.

If Hillary had accepted the Vice Presidency if offered, we would have had both a female and a person of color serving for the past 7 years. That Hillary's favorability remains so high is further evidence of a public now willing to consider anyone who has the right stuff, but the right stuff has to be proven in some way first.

How Mia Love will actually perform remains unknown as yet.

like I said, you are clueless. Romneycare is not a federal mandate to all 50 states. If the residents of Mass want that system which is not the same thing as Obamacare its their state, if people don't like it they can move. Obamacare is unpopular with Americans but you keep spinning it.


USPS does a fine job???? USPS lost 2 billion in 3 months The Post Office Lost $2 Billion In Just 3 Months


and that's from the Huffington Post, a liberal site.....but the USPS does a fine job because you say so? lmao!



The private sector moves our economy, without the private sector our economy would die and our government couldn't run or pay for all those liberal social engineering programs.

Way to eliminate yourself from serious consideration in future discussions. This is nonsense.

Republicans voted to elect Dubya again, even though it was known that he LIED to start those wars, and that his domestic policy was leading every domestic category into crisis mode, based on how inept he was the previous four years.

Republicans cling to "trickle-down" economic theory, even though it has never worked to benefit all, not just the rich.

Regarding Obamacare, the health care crisis stared Republicans in the face for 8 straight years during the Bush era, and they ignored it. a NO-care policy doesn't work.

All these are clear examples that Republicans "keep trying the same thing over and over", but instead of expecting a different result, they pretend as if a better result will emerge because they have no other ideas.

Unfortunately, most of them are.

60% of Americans don't have savings to cover even a $500 car repair bill

The same thing that happened to Obama but reversed. Every social ill under the planet will be blamed on him whether or not he did it. Republicans will take a hit in Congress and the Democrats would get more radical leftists.

Being a "great" president generally entails being in the wrong place at the right time -- i.e., in the midst of a major war (Lincoln) or economic crisis (FDR). Bill Clinton will never be considered a great president; the challenges he faced were simply too minor.
