I actually think Romney is more liberal than he was allowed to show himself to be. His record in MA seems to indicate as such. Also, for the most part I think that people knew what they were getting with Romney. With Obama it seems to be a constant bait and switch. He campaigned on having the most open, accessible presidency in history, to close down guantanamo, end the wars, reign in spending, with his "scalpel" and not "machete" approach. All bullshit. He's a bullshitter. Also, much of what Romney was chided for by Obama has come to fruition. -Syria, Russia. Please forgive the horrible title of this video: A leader needs to command and I don't find Obama in any way a commanding presence. I am certainly becoming more fiscally conservative in my old age and I think Romney is more socially liberal than he was able to let on. If I could sit and have a beer (iced-tea in Romney's case) with either of them, I might consider Romney the more interesting of the two. Honestly.
That Russia part is funny. I think this is a pretty good argument for why he shouldn't lead the country. Seems like he goes with the wind. Not to say that Obama doesn't play his own game. But at least he isn't ostensibly aligned with the madness in the House of Reps.I actually think Romney is more liberal than he was allowed to show himself to be.
