Ok, Richie, let me ask you then.. I made the following charges as to what I would see under a Romney administration.. I'll list and elaborate..
1) Romney would ramp up the wars - Public statements he made a few weeks ago - especially about increasing the military budget.
2) cut taxes - again, some pretty public comments.
3) Increased spending and more tax cuts like Bush gave us will give us a bigger deficit - and let's not forget that more people are retiring, the Social Security annual surplus is GONE so the government has to pay back some of those IOUs in the Social Security trust fund. Hence: "make Obama's deficits look like pocket change"
4) but keep the status quo for the very wealthy - The wealthy have shown ample ability to survive these problems. Not so much the middle class.
Romney is certainly no Reagan. Can't compromise -though now that I think about it who knows where his undecided nature will take him (what others call his 'flip flopping').
So what part of that got such a reaction?
Again, remember, I'm no fan of Obama but Romney doesn't look better to me.
