Just a friendly suggestion. Please read something other that what is supplied to you from the left. Sometimes when you make these comments so out of context, it so clear. Do you read about your hero and how he has changed JUST IN THE LAST TWO YEARS....would you like examples.
People change opinions....they all do...what you are saying is right out of a textbook media blitz (I used to do that stuff). If you change your stand on something straight forward, that is fine.....it is when you lie about your stance obviously that is bad and there is a huge difference.
This election will be won or lost on the debates in my opinion. Or some "event" happening between now and November. It
WILL NOT be won with stuff like this. UNLESS there is more attention to the hate ads that I expect.
I did this stuff (for the Democrats by the way for a long time),,,it is easy for me to be able to spot what comes from where.
I surely am not correct always, but think in politics...50-60 % is a good rate. BUT you need to read
both sides when you read politics or you walk right into things that you dont want to face and get embarrassed.
I have posted things on here an a few hours later found myself embarrassed...in most cases I will make a apology on here but you have to read both sides if you
SERIOUSLY want to talk politics. If, as some on here do and want to do, all you want to do is flame then dont bother and I am sorry I typed so long.
If you dont mind me making my point. As you know, I oppose this President quite strongly, NOT because he is a democrat by the way....but to insure my fears and concerns were justifies, I read BOTH of his autobiographies, have spent hours combing as much as I can get available of the Chicago newspaper archives, and have read 1 1/2 of books dedicated to him by supporters. Those book were AFTER I made my decision but again,my point is read both sides.
Romney has changed his position but so has Obama and on some serious issues like fighting terrorism, trials of terrorist and the recent Panama treaty. Very open changes in opinions...it happens and it will not bring down Romney if that is your hope
