Romney had a high approval rating up until it was clear that he was going to run for the presidency. At that point he became a somewhat absentee governor. As I said in another of your "Romney destroyed Massachusetts" threads, the people of Massachusetts think that they are at the center of the political world and when their top politician leaves to run for higher office they think to themselves "what higher office is there?"
Do you realize how dumb that sounds? "He was an absentee governor!" I guess that means he'll be an absentee president, too. Just like he was an absentee CEO at Bain. And an absentee speaker when he derided the "47 percent."
By your standards, we should elect George W. Bush to a third term because even he had a higher approval rating than Romney when he left office.
Is it too late to call up Newt Gingrich? The GOP needs a substitute.
Haha..
in Massachusetts grew dissatisfied with Romney's frequent out-of-state travel and shift toward promoting socially conservative issues as he began to focus increasingly on national rather than state politics
Ooh no.. they were upset cause he was focusing on NATIONAL issues..

How is that any different than Obama, who hasnt held a jobs council in nearly 1/2 a year? Or created a debt commission and then never looked at it?
I see them making up conspiracy theories and excuses, the lamestream liberal media, the moderator is an Obamabot, blah blah blah blah.
The Dems took their lumps, why can't you guys do the same
Time to man up
Righties cant even give Obama credit for the mission that took out OBL they certainly arent ever going to admit a single thing positive about the man including a well done debate.
Wow, so now bills just pass on their own without a Governor/Presidential signature and guidance..
How exactly does that work? I have lots of paperwork here that needs done, and since you're now telling me things get done on their own, I'm anxiously awaiting your input on how thats done..
Bills need Governor/Presidential signature for sure.. But when u have majority pushing in house a bill and has majority of public support, IT needs GUTS to stand up against it. As Mr Romney has time and again proved, he does not have to STAND to his policies, he just went ahead and jumped on the band wagon....
But Romney saying he came up with this whole idea is full of C**P. Yes he likes what is in MA.. sure we all like it... Again.. we MA residents, do not MIND at all that Romney is beating the drum of Mass health as he was the Govt at that time.. but again.. he does not like when we turn around and point out to the other mess he made... And that is the reason he RAN AWAY from MA and did not contest for 2nd term...
Obama never had a 70 percent disapproval rating. That's a big difference!
So what you're saying is that people hold Romney up to higher standards and demanded satisfaction, while they give Obama a pass and support his failures.
I agree, americans are dumb, thanks for showing us that.

If Romney care was such a failure, then why did Obama use it as a model for the nation? What type of guts does it take to take someone elses plans and copy them?
I know this is off topic, but Gallup tracking just came out and has Romney up by +6!
Womp, womp...
