is he the perfect candidate? no. has there ever been? no. was he a good choice? ya.
i like paul ryan a hell of a lot more than romney. but obama is ruining this country so much that i would have voted for whoever the republican candidate is/was.
Romney wasn't my first choice (my #1 choice didn't run this time for Pres but looks like a possible/probable 16 candidate should Romney fail to win). I think several people didn't/don't feel Obama is beatable so they didn't get in the race. I also think the Reps have a better/deeper bench for the future than the dems (Rubio, Rand Paul, Martinez, Haley, Jindal, Christie, Ryan, etc...) Look incumbents have an incredible advantage (especially the President). They get to fly around in Air Force one on taxpayer's dime on "official" business when everyone knows they are REALLY campaigning (both parties do this).
He also wasn't my #1 choice in the primary. By the time we got to TX the thing was decided so I cast my vote for Romney. I have "issues" with Romney. However, unlike some on the right I give him "some slack". Look the guy ran for office and governed in TAXACHUSETTS! Having lived in RI for 4 years its another planet up there compared to Red States. As such, he had to "play games" on a # of issues that cause him problems on the right. (see abortion)
The problem this now causes is people aren't 100% sure where Romney stands on various issues. I actually think he is a conservative on most issues and will govern as such. I cast my vote for the most conservative candidate that has a realistic shot of winning.
In sum, Romney = not perfect (noone is) but actually a really good candidate particularly given the issues of the day (the economy) that he is uniquely qualified to handle and hopefully turn around. He also picked quite possibly the best candidate for the other issue of our time (the debt). If they can solve the economy and the debt Romney/Ryan could set up a LONG run of Reps in the White House.
Love me some "Buffet Rule Act". :nod: I believe Huckabee did something similar while governor of Arkansas calling it a "tax me more" law that generated like $100 bucks in extra revenue.

The truth: liberals want to raise taxes on anyone well except me but here go after that guy!!!! He's EVIL!!!!!
I look at it more this way... Can we take four more years of Obama's policies? You have to imagine what this guy can do to in four more years knowing he does not have to worry about getting re-elected. You could pretty much stick anyone with an R beside their name and I would vote for them.

During a Wednesday broadcast of MSNBC’s “Andrea Mitchell Reports,” which airs weekdays at 1 p.m. (EST), the show‘s host said she wouldn’t air the 1998 audio of President Barack Obama claiming he supports “redistribution” because it hasn’t been “verified” by her network.
:D
NBC verifying something? :fp:

Instead of meeting with the PM of Israel. Yesterday, our President was poppin' the champagne with Jay-Z and Beyonce. Picture of the $100K worth of champagne shown above.
The 2 Republicans left in RI (after my wife and I left that HELL HOLE) are fighting back against the Communists banning Father-Daughter dances.

Well Mr. President we plan on letting you try to "change" Washington from "the outside" shortly. :nod:
I needed a good laugh today.

Before he judges other people about paying federal income taxes, Gov. Romney should come clean about the tax returns he's hiding from voters."
If you do not see the irony here, you probably do not follow politics closely enough.
Rangel shouldn't challenge anyone about anything ...

Since this is technically non-partisan, I'm going to post it in both Propaganda threads, as well as the YouTube thread. It's just awesome.

Romneys care about others more than the Obamas.

I've had more. Easily.
Not that something like logic should stop stuff like this from being talked about ;)
