I do not think anyone here doubts that most Conservative voters are not happy with Romney. Not happy at all.

Romney is lying through his teeth. He will say anything to be elected.

No one doubts he is just going to outsource even more American jobs. Just look at his leadership record working at Bain.
He has said he wants to give H1B visas to every foreign graduate of an American technical university, at a time when many American engineers are already unemployed.

Romney, like many other Republican leaders, holds neoliberal economic beliefs. If you believe American workers should compete with low wage workers in the rest of the world, and believe more low wage skilled workers should be brought into the United States so the country can compete with the rest of the world, then by all means, go ahead and vote for Romney. Because this is exactly what he believes.

He can try to "grow" the economy all he wants, but it is not going to do any good if it just brings in massive poverty from the outside, causes unemployment, and drives down wages.


I would like to conclude with a little story passed down to me from my grandmother. After the second world war, a german lady stayed at my grandparent's house for several months. One day the subject of the war came up, and my grandmother asked the woman how they could have let Hitler come to power. The woman told my grandmother that she had actually voted for Hitler in the elections. "Why?", my grandmother asked. The german answered, "It was either him or the Communists." Sometimes in politics we are forced to choose the better of two evils, especially in America's two party system. To all you Republicans out there I just want you to realise one thing: You are voting for Hitler
But at least Hitler had sensible immigration policies, which is much more than can be said of Romney.

Do you even remember the clown shows the rebulican'ts had for the past year? Where there were a bunch of loser candidates with money that the broadcast media was duping. Just because they are politicians does not mean they are smart. The Broadcast media suckered them into begging for money for over a year just so those candidates could give it all to the meida mogules and advertisers. that's right the jewish media monopoly makes all the money tax free. And makes candidates beg for money to give to the media.

How cool is that? the media broadcasters and advertisers do jack squat and the politicians do all the begging. And in the end the media owns the money and the politicians, tax free money by the way.

So to answer your question, "Last idiot Standing". that is how they decided.

"How could Republicans have allowed Romney to become the nominee?!"

Romney was the best they had...

Well Anders, I'll try to beat up a few of your points just for exercise.

Romney lies through his teeth. All politicians lie through their teeth. All will do whatever it takes to get elected. That is hardly unique to Romney.

Presidents don't outsource jobs. Businesses do. So it isn't possible for Romney to outsource jobs. Why do businesses outsource jobs? Because of competitive pressures. It isn't pretty but it is reality.

I have no idea what neoliberal economic beliefs are but I can tell you that presidents don't determine wages or decide how to compete in an international market place. Businesses do.

You did get one thing right, however. Presidents also don't grow economies. No president does, ever has or ever will. Businesses do. The president may be able to engineer a better environment for business but business, in the end, has to grow the economy. Business profits, by the way, create every nickel of wealth in our economy and in yours as well.

your way off on that.Did you forget how clinton outsourced jobs overseas signing NAFTA?

Americans are programmed from early youth to vote and they always elect the handsome guy, be it Class president in 3rd grade or President of The United States. The smart but ugly guy stays home. In essence you might place blame on Madison Avenue and Hollywood.

There you have it...my point. paul looks like a ferret, Romney is a Hollywood type. The "people" voted in the primaries and voted for handsome only. Also Paul did go a bit beyond the norm in some of his proposed policies. Romney stayed in the safe zone. Could we have better than Romney? I really don't know, but I do know he is better than Obama.

you obviously only read PARTS of my posts.you missed the part how Romneys camp was caught committing vote fraud in the Iowa caucuses and other states as well.I see ron paul bumper stickers everywhere I go,for the first time since this whole election started,I saw a romney one for the very first time yesterday.also romney and Obamas crowds are not even halfway full where Pauls are in the thousands packed EVERYTIME.
