VOTE FOR ROMNEY VOTE FOR ROMNEY VOTE FOR ROMNEY VOTE FOR ROMNEY VOTE FOR ROMNEY VOTE FOR ROMNEY VOTE FOR ROMNEY VOTE FOR ROMNEY It's the only way out of this mess

What "mess" you referring to?

It's at least a chance. I have no faith in Establishment Republicans to do what they need to do. You know the Tea Party Coalition candidates will come through on their votes, but you can never count on the "McCains" to do what right once they're seated in the big room.

The one chance this country has is to gain both houses and the Presidency. Then they need to act swiftly before the mid-terms in scaling back all the "mess" you're speaking of.

Will they stay together and do this?

It's the only hope this country has.

I dont know Rich...lets assume it is Romney and he has both houses of congress. I dont want him to repeal the healthcare act , but I want it severely reworked to actually cut health costs because that has to be done.

I think we need some serious tax reform also......and the almight jobs.

These alone are going to take lots of time. I think on those three items he will even get Democratic support, because despite all the glee being shown, there are a slew of Democrats who despise the health bill in its format right now....who strongly feel the tax code needs revised and would gladly work on any jobs bill forwarded.

These 3 things would go a long way to getting this country fixed.

Also, if Romney does get elected he must insure that he stays in constant communications with both parties and both houses. This President did not and does not.....even his own party talks in private about it thus he will never be able to bring us together. Romney has to open and above board with both parties from the beginning. I just recently read or reread how many times Obama invited heads to the WH, nodded his head and said..ok...and nobody of either party ever heard from him again. THAT you cannot do.

I think that if most "thinking" people really examine their gut feelings this is what they think when it is boiled down to it's basic elements.
Oh sure there are those on the left that for what ever reason think that Obama is the saviour of the earth and those on the right that think he is the death of America.

I think a politician is a politician and does what ever keeps them in the money. I know our local Rep. congressman and have known him for almost thirty years and he would do what ever make him rich and so would any dem.
If you think they are there for you, you are the idiot!
I think it is reflected in unions when people know in their heart that it can't go on like this but they have to be for it because it hits them in their bank account.
There are always going to be those people that think that the money that people earn belongs to everybody and they will always be for people like Obama.
We are a capitalistic economy and we need the economy to work and Obama's way just does not work. It is just that simple.
Sure we want everybody to have all they need but many of those people are not willing to to do what it takes to get those things and need an Obama to get it for them. That is not what our country was built on.

I have to disagree about the humongous health care legislation that improperly was rewritten by InJustice Roberts to have an appearance of constitutionality. Anything this massive always has unforeseen consequences that on top of the "foreseen" consequences make it much to dangerous to stand in my opinion. It must be repealed, on Constitutional grounds alone.

Health care problems need to be addressed and should be done incrementally. It's much easier to adjust solutions that way instead of this monstrosity that no one fully has a handle on.

I'm sure Romney is going to be immensely more open to dealing with Democrats than Obama was in even talking with Republicans. I'm not sure that's a good thing. We always get screwed. Democrats don't compromise. They don't give ground. We can learn something from them on that score.

We built this country on rock and roll!

And Republicans, the party of no, do compromise? Really? Can you compromise when your whole strategy is to see that Obama is a one term President. Give me a break.

Apparently a lot of posters on this forum support ending Medicare as we know it and replacing it with a voucher system, while ending the ACA which would eliminate the pre-existing condition protection. Must be a hearty stock to not have to worry about pre-existing conditions.

Also, most posters must favor Mitt Romney's five trillion dollar tax cuts over the next decade for millionaires and billionaires, even though he has yet to articulate how they will be paid for.

Those are the same people who say,"...don't take away MY Medicare, I paid for it over fifty years!" or "...don't take away MY VA health benefits, I'm a vet!", or "...cut taxes, we'll grow our way back to a balanced budget", or "...all we need to do is eliminate waste and fraud to fix our fiscal problems". Those aren't the deepest thinkers we have on this forum.

They're also the same people who have never really taken the time to study how financially devastating a voucher system would be to tens of millions of Americans, and how detrimental it would be to the overall health of the nation.

If it wasn't so sad and alarming, it would be laughable.

Along with Obama, you have Michelle. Don't laugh, as time grows closer, you will see her out there stumping more and more. Don't forget, she's a hard core attorney.

This election will be so close that you might as well have a pajama party and serve breakfast!

I would love to know how the last two posters here (VK and JANMCN) arrived at this subject from the thread and also would love for them to validate their claims about folks on this forum believe ????? If there was a survey, I missed it, and if not, I rescind any right you think you may have to speak for me !!!

The comments are just twitter remarks used on all these threads to change any subject to a criticism of Romney, et al Very bad style in my opinion.

Do not mind discussing anything but you two are in left field as compared to this thread and it is becoming a common thing on here.

i'm not aware of any survey. What I said was based on what people post here. I've made the assumption that what they write is some indication of what they think, the balance and depth of their thinking and how that leads to what they choose to post.

One would assume, on a thread started "vote for Romney", that posters supporting Romney would support his positions. Why else would anyone "vote for Romney"?
