Candidate Romney

We all understand by now that the economy is the most important concern on the minds of most voters---jobs, jobs, jobs. And I think this is the reason why the voting is going to be close. But man does not live by bread alone.

I can not vote for Romney because he somehow comes across to me as a hollow politician, there is something there that does not inspire trust, he has flipped flopped far too often which suggests something else. He is a member of the 1% who was born with the proverbial silver spoon in his mouth. And with nothing else to do, why not become president of the USA? He already has spent a few years of his life running for this office. He wants to not just take us back to the 1950's but more to the 1880's. Like it or not, the country has to move forward and move on.

I'm sorry you feel that way. I like Romney. I feel like I can trust him and I believe that he will make some real positive changes for us. I know what I have seen happen to friends and family over the past four years and they can't handle any more. Not only that, but I do not trust Obama. I tried to, but I no longer do especially after this latest scandal.

How much do you really know of the background of Romney? Are you aware that he left the governorship of Mass. under a cloud? The news I've received is that he viewed this governorship as a stepping stone. Nothing else need be said.

In what way? I'm genuinely curious, because I've heard this talking point a lot, but it confounds me on how one can reach that conclusion.

Also, I'm curious how you can find Romney's past any more dubious than Obama's.
