I can understand why a person of conservative bent would vote against Barak Obama, but I cannot understand why anybody would vote for Mitt Romney.
The man is the king of flip-floppers. He's been on both sides of every issue there is. He was for abortion on demand; now he's against it. He was for gun-control; now he's against it. He was for providing health care for everybody--he even wrote the rules; now he's against it. He was a moderate Republican govenor; now he's a Tea Party Favorite.
So what would Mitt Romney do as president? It doesn't matter what he says he'd do because everything he says today is open to revision tomorrow. That's how it always has been with him. He will sail with the wind wherever the wind originates, and we all know where that is for him: that small band of super-rich who are investing mind-boggling amounts of money in their effort to buy the White House for him (and especially for themselves).
It has never been truer than now that the rich would get richer, the poor poorer, and the middle class smaller.
Did I hear someone say Oligarchy? Plutocracy?

He might have shifted with the wind to get elected, but he has been consistent in his combative approach to gays and women. In his own church he tried to talk a woman into not having an abortion after her doctor told her it was necessary to save her own life; even Mitt's superior opposed his sordid suggestion. And he tried to convince a Morman parishioner to give up her baby girl to a Morman family that had two parents. The baby was white, funny, Mitt did not ask her to give up her young son, who was black. Both children grew up happy and into accomplished careers. And we all know what he did to that poor gay high student. Not a nice person - nope.
