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.

Middle class...middle class?!
Would those be the Democrat folks that Joe Biden was addressing at the $10,000 a couple State dinner. You know, the one where Biden said that Republicans are out of touch with the middle class... While said middle classed dined on grass-fed New York strip steaks and white truffle mashed potatoes.
OMG, they all make me sick!
