And the OP is rejoicing? Christmas 2012 is going to be grrr-eat?!? Romney, the most likely GOP president, will be about what Obama is with more tax cuts for the rich, fewer tax cuts for the middle class. That's about all that will be different.
rejoicing? No. Romney is "more of the same", but is far better than Obama. At least Romney would restore some fiscal discipline, reduce regulations and corporate tax rates, and allow domestic energy exploration. That will be a great start in removing a fiscal idiot from the White House, but we need REAL CHANGE.

The only candidate remaining who is offering that real change is Ron Paul. Unfortunately, like Ross Perot, America is not ready to face the facts and change course. We need more misery before we are "cured". Obama, if he is re-elected, will set the nation to the point of no recovery, much like Greece. At least Romney will allow the nation a "breathing period" and permit the time to make some painful, yet rational, decisions.

The funny thing? You and I agree. If I were the only voting, and the next president were entirely up to me, Ron Paul would be our next president.

Since the GOP will nominate Romney, I'll be voting Obama.

Of course he's right about everything, when he starts being correct it'll be news.

The sad part is that these actually people think that anyone outside of Paul would be a better President than Obama.
