NOt like most of you, I am independent voter base on my belief of who are the better of two, not the lesser of the evils. I also will not choose purely on the ideology of the party.
Romney is the smartest candidate in at least three dacades. To prove it, check his record. AS a graduate student, he entered the JD/MBA program , that is very very few people able to do it. Since then, he had a midas touch, turned everything into gold. From Bain Capital, to Salt lake city winter olympics, to MA STATES.
Yes, He is not perfect. Although I believe he is neutral, He often gives in to the far right, As a consequence, we see a lot flip-flop. That is ok with me. It is always a give and take in this situation.
COme to your point about the aunto bailout in your early post, I thought you may missed some points. Bankrutpcy instead of bailout doesn't necessarly translate into massive layoff. As a matter of fact, Bankruptcy will not shut down the GM and chlyslers. It is more about renigotiation of the union of the workers with GE, It is more about asset restruturing under chapter 11. Obama's bailout doesn't bailout the auto industry, it only bailout the union of the auto workers. It allows UOW compensation rate remains uncompetitively high.
So, if you understand this bailout, will you still support it?
