Some are going to go back and try to twist what Romney said.

Remember when George H Bush ran and promised, "Read my lips, no new taxes"? Then when we got into a fight over the budget and he sat down with the dems and ,Oh my gosh, COMPROMISED with the dems.

Then the same dems he had just negotiated with immediately ran to the media and proclaimed, '"He broke his promise".

How many time did Obama and his people say, "It is NOT a tax" when asked about the "penalty" for not having insurance?

He will be portrayed as lying to the people.

It hurt Bush in his re-election. This will certainly hurt Obama.

Question hmm...

Can Mitt Romney be trusted to lead when he has no position on any issue of importance?

Romney is clearly incapable of the decisive mindset necessary be CIC.

You and I finally agree.

I have said for years that I would never vote for Romney for prez. Of all the people in the United States and this is the best we can come up with? Pathetic!

How in the world did the party get this empty suit as their nominee for President? There is absolutely NOTHING to the guy at all. He stands for nothing, he has no ideas at all on how to solve anything. He is the most blatent flip flopper I have ever seen or heard. If he says something and the polls show him it's not a popular comment he will try the 180% switch around and see if that gets some support. I really wonder why the guy wants to be president in the first place. I can't figure it out at all. I mean the guy's claim to fame is that he was a very successful corporate raider. That is probably the worst kind of parasite the free enterprise system ever created. Anything and everything for a buck. If it means distroying American jobs and American industry it's just perfectly fine to send those jobs and that production overseas somewhere as long as the corporate raider gets his slice of the action.

Buy up a company that is doing OK. Buy it very heavily leveraged, using federally insured funds from your friendly bankster. Borrow heavily against the company and pay yourself all the $$$ you invested plus a big pile. Then start taking the company apart piece by piece. Sell the property and buildings to a holding company you also own, and pocket that. Lease the building back and pocket that. Sell off equipment that is not making a profit this minute. Rape that enterprise of every single cent you can. When you are done wrecking an enterprise that has maybe employed generations of Americans you then sell of the what's left, the patents, knowhow and customers to some Chinese operator. This is exactly what companies like Bain do every day. Can you really want a guy who made nearly a billion dollars off the backs of American workers and businessmen in this fashion to become your president????

All I can say is, that if you do and if he gets elected you will surely deserve what you are going to get.
Royally screwed!!!!!!!!
