As long as he works with the Republicans in Congress to reduce the size, scope and power of the government...and doesn't do any worse than Obama when dealing with the world (don't think he really CAN do worse), I don't care HOW he governs.
You mean like how he raised taxes and fees as well as enacting Romneycare in Massachusetts?
Apparently it was irrational to put hope in Obama, but it's not to expect Romney to do the exact opposite of what he did in Massachusetts.
And people call me crazy.
I don't care what he did in MA. That was a State...not a nation. He had a quite different State Congress to deal with than he will as President...and quite different issues to deal with. And, the demographics of the Citizens of MA is quite different than the demographics of the Citizens of the U.S. There just is no correlation.
Now, Obama...we have a record of his actions as President for almost four years. We have a VERY good idea how he would govern in another term. Thanks, but no thanks.

I'm sorry. Are you serious?
You cannot be serious. That HAS TO BE A JOKE.
You just argued that nothing a candidate has done in the past matters because the Presidency is different. Therefore, we cannot actually judge Romney because nothing he did before the Presidency matters. Which then leads to the obvious problem of how are we to decide if Romney is a good candidate as per your logic, nothing he did before matters?
Are you okay? Your posts are becoming less and less coherent everyday.
Granted that is true, but you seem to think Congress has no impact upon Government or the economy.
Okay, seriously, you're joking about that "nothing he did before matters" comment right?
Right? That has to be joke.
I've already answered that in other threads...you know, the other threads where you...with your partisan anti-Romny attitude...keep attacking him and my position on him.
Go read it there.
Again, you display your inability to read...or at least, to understand what you read.
I didn't say what he's done in the past doesn't matter. I said what he did as Governor of MA doesn't matter.
Do you understand the difference?
Let's use some simple diagrams.
Governorship = Different From Presidency
Everything Romney has done = Different from presidency.
Different from presidency = Doesn't Matter
Everything Romney has done = Doesn't Matter
HOT DAMN!!!
Finally!!
You are not so oblivious after all!
The only thing I care about Romney is that he has an "R" after his name. Heck, I would have been happy with any other Republican Primary candidate getting the nod. Any of them would have gotten my vote for President.
And...before you go off some deep end with that, I'll mention that every thing I've said this evening has pointed to my stated position...which is to give the Republicans the chance to reduce the size, scope and power of the government and to boot that failed Obama.
This is rather poor way of admitting you got bested. Considering you're effectively abandoning everything you said earlier.
This is an even poorer way of arguing you're not a partisan.
Except that the candidate of choice has a history of not doing that. But you freely admit how he behaved doesn't matter. Nor does anything he did matter. What matters if the fact he's not a Democrat. And that somehow makes you not a partisan. Okay.
How is choosing a candidate with a recorded history of big government, big intrusion and tax raises the " the chance to reduce the size, scope and power of the government?"
Know what, I don't actually expect an answer.
Have a good night Mycroft.
LOL!!!
You know what? I have my own definition of a blind partisan. One that you most assuredly meet.
A person who...once they understand another's position...ignore that position and continue to repeat what they want to THINK the other person is saying.
