But that means *anyone* opposing would win. That's not good.

He had puppet written all across his forehead. There was something slithery about his character, and he sure didn't seem to be in touch with the average American. Not that Oblama represents any of the values of the working or middle class America either. He's simply a panderer.

Unfortunately, there is no way to market someone like Romney to the masses. Especially at a time when everyone is whining about income inequality and the top percentiles acquiring all the plunder. Both Romney and Obama are part of that top 5% or so that's making a killing. The difference is Obama and co. knows how to play the game. Romney is just uber lame. There's no way to package Romney into anything appealing, and even if it was possible, we're talking about the GOP here... You can't be any more out of touch than Karl Rove these days.

I hope so, if for nothing else, to watch Fox news predict he'll win by a landslide and then implode.

Oh please, stop.

The anti Muslim sentiment was strong in this country too, but Obama was re-elected.

When a rino runs, the republican loses every time. When a real conservative runs, or at least convinces people he is, they win.

They tried that with Huntsman. The GOP would rather have a bunch of clowns as their nominations.

The majority of Democrats & Republicans are paid for by special interest groups who may want us to die a slow, & painful, but premature death, if that maximizes profits. They don't think mass murder for megabillions is wrong. They hate the Constitution, under them we have no rights to try for good health & a long life. They say send your 18 year old into war for an honorable death, so they don't become a "marijuana addict". Some think that makes sense, after having brain damage from Big Pharma's pills.

Want real freedom? Then we need to vote to put Democrats & Republicans out of business!
Poor Romney, he made $7,000 an hour investing in pre-public offering stocks, which only are available to millionaires & billionaires. He told people cannabis would never be legal under his presidency (it's very safe & can treat 126 medical conditions often better than pills, with fewer side effects). He got real mad when people asked about legalization.
He said aren't there any important issues? If you're disabled or dead, what else matters?

Vote for me & I'll help kill you is the message for voters who need cannabis oil to cure a fatal illness. Cannabis users often are pacifists! What good are people that refuse to volunteer to be murdered to enhance corporate profits?! Only 60% of us get cancer & half of those die from it. Enough? Why don't we ever hear politicians speak about cancer? Why don't they tell us of hundreds of cures that have worked for some? Silence=more profits.

Romney wanted lots more wars. Ask yourself do you really want your son to die at 18 if that makes you patriotic? Did Saddam Hussein shred the U.S. Constitution, or was it our friendly govt that cares about us soo much? Romney praised big oil at debates, $10/gal OK?

What's good for the country means what's good for the bribers & bribees, & often something that harms the majority. Why vote for that? Vote for a 3rd party. Most vote as if they are suicidal, but I don't think the majority are quite there yet. Research & think. Elect warmongers whose defense stocks go up if someone you care about dies, or vote for life.
It's your choice. Best wishes, all.
