A VOTE FOR ROMNEY IS A VOTE FOR A LIBERAL AND A VOTE TO KEEP THE STATUS QUO:

~is actually a fan of the Department of Education. In the GOP primary race of 2008, Romney remarked that he had come to “see that the Department of Education can actually make a difference.”
Oh, and he is a proponent of “No Child Left Behind,” a law that has served to strengthen the federal government’s grip over state schools.
~endorsed “the Brady Bill”— a federal piece of legislation requiring all would-be purchasers of firearms to wait five days before they can follow through with their purchases. He commented that his decision to do so was “not going to make me the hero of the NRA [National Rifle Association].” But that was fine with Romney, for as he proudly noted, “I don’t line up with the NRA.”
In 2008, on the eve of the declaration of his candidacy for president, Romney acquired a membership with none other than the NRA.
~supported the government’s bailout of the automobile industry. Not only, though, does he call for the federal government to subsidize this industry, he also believes that it ought to continue subsidizing the agricultural industry. Romney wasn’t always this sympathetic to the latter, though. While he was running for the Senate in 1994, he demanded what he referred to as “the virtual elimination” of the Department of Agriculture. However, in 2007, when he was pushed on this point, one of his Iowa spokespersons assured farmers that “Governor Romney believes that investing in agriculture is [the] key to our economy and families.”
~doesn’t just believe in “global warming;” he thinks as well that human beings contribute significantly to it. In and of itself, this belief is neither here nor there, but as we know all too well, believers in “global warming”— especially when they are politicians, like Romney, with dreams of amassing vast quantities of power — invariably jump all too easily from this belief in an impending apocalypse to the conclusion that “we must do something to thwart it.”
And this, of course, means that we need bigger and bigger government.
When he was governor of Massachusetts, Romney authored a 72-point “Climate Protection Plan” and supported the Regional Greenhouse Gas Initiative — both measures designed to regulate greenhouse gas emissions.
~“Romneycare.” Still, it bears repeating: Romney’s socialized health care scheme for the citizens of Massachusetts was instrumental in the formation of the “Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act”— i.e. “Obamacare
Furthermore, in the hard cover edition of his book, No Apology: The Case for American Greatness, Romney said that he would like to do for all of America’s citizens vis-à-vis healthcare what he did for the citizens of Massachusetts. Since “Obamacare” became woefully unpopular, the paperback version of his book has been released. Only this version is slightly different from its predecessor inasmuch as it omits this line
~in spite of his assurances that he is opposed to abortion, for most of his political career he has been a proponent of women’s “right to choose.” Mind you, it isn’t just that Romney refused to ally himself with the opponents of abortion; he actively sought to counter their efforts.
In 1994, while he was running for the Senate in Massachusetts, Romney was photographed at a Planned Parenthood fundraiser. That same (election) year, he insisted that “we should sustain and support” Roe v. Wade, as well as “the right of a woman to make that choice” to pursue an abortion or not. Whatever Romney’s or anyone else’s “personal beliefs” regarding the wrongness of abortion, he adamantly rejected the possibility that it would be appropriate to interject them “into a political campaign.”
