Why I support Mitt Romney for President

[Conservadude]

In response to a thread I saw about no one talking of their support for Mitt Romney and only trashing Obama - Here ya go:

I, like so many, bought into Obama's rhetoric and lofty promises of Hope and Change in 2008. Although I disagreed with him on so many key issues, I thought it was a new era, a new time, a new political arena, and I thought he was going to be the one to get America on track. Man was I wrong.

4 years later, I see that his tenure as President has been nothing but a failure. I'm not someone that believes he is just crumbling America because he hates America, rather I think he's tried everything he thinks will work.. and it isn't. As Romney said, "he's out of ideas, and out of time."

I think he's tried his social experiment on America, and I believe it's failed. From Obamacare, to supporting gay marriage and no longer defending the law of the land (DOMA), and to supporting government funded abortions - he has to go.

His economic policies have obviously failed as well. Unemployment still sky high.. Gas prices still skyrocketing.. America lost it's AAA credit rating.. What's next?!

Now that I've made the case against Barack Obama (as an ex-supporter.. yes, it's amazing what four years of Obama can do to someone).. Allow me to make the case for Mitt Romney.

Mitt Romney - Businessman, Religious leader, Governor.. Why is he the right choice to beat Obama? While I admit that Mitt Romney wasn't my first choice, he is my 100% choice now. Here's why - listed in importance to me..

#1. He's for defending our laws and upholding marriage as an institution between a man and a woman (DOMA).
#2. He's for protecting innocent life by repealing Roe V. Wade and letting the states decide abortion laws.. and he's also for cutting ANY government funding that goes to killing innocent life.
#3. He doesn't want to cut our military at such a volatile time.
#4. He's a businessman. We need someone that knows a thing or two about running something and how to get businesses doing business again.
#5. He'll be a strong ally of Israel.. and may even make a couple trips over there.. (ahem, Obama, ahem..)
#6. He's for repealing Obamacare and letting the states decide their own health care laws, like he did in Mass.
#7. He'll protect the second amendment and won't tour the world making apologies for America.

Just my top 7.. I know he isn't perfect.. but when we compare him to Obama.. There's no contest..

Romney 2012!

The whole 1st half of your post has nothing to do with Mitt, and even while praising him you still couldn't help but take jabs at Obama.

All part of comparing and contrasting. I admit that he may not have been the best pick of the field, but he's by far the best pick of the field now.

I see no significant diffrence between an Obama presidency and a Romney one, however Im glad to see a positive thread instead of the constant negitive ones.

While I do not 'support' Romney for President... I certainly do feel he would be better than Obamalama... by how much would be debatable...

I support a more conservative approach to governance than Romney is bringing to the table

As do I.. But I feel as if I have no option but to organize and get out the vote for Romney. He's the only choice.. and he does have a lot of good about him. I'm hoping he picks our governor (Mcdonnell) to run with.

Given the points you've made in support of Romney, there is no way you supported Obama or any Democrat - ever. You lost cred by posting an anti Obama thread and stated in the first sentence it was not going to be an anti Obama thread.

Troll of the weak, nomination.

You don't think so? Well, there's really no way to "prove" otherwise, but I used to be the biggest brainwashed Democrat you've ever met. I'd argue with a stop sign and tell it that it said "go".. Plus, I never stated that it wasn't an anti-Obama thread.. I simply listed the reasons I won't vote for Obama.. Then listed the reasons I WOULD be voting Romney.

Diversion of the week, nomination.

You're inability to see a difference really doesnt effect the ability of the rest of us to.

I knew it. You're not voting for Mitt Romney, you're voting against Obama.

None of Mitt's supports can say why they're voting for him without mentioning Obama.

Good post. He has flip flopped on at least 2 of the points you mentioend above. About "repealing Obamacare" and replacing it with what he did in MA...that doesn't make much sense.

But if you cite those as reasons to vote FOR the Governor, you should; as much as I cite some of those as reasons not to. I do urge you to vote for republicans in all of the federal elections though; give your guy something to work with.

Ive done so multiple times. Not sure why you feel like lying about it. I guess it makes you feel better.

A vote for Romney gives the neo-cons new life and wall street four more years to rape our planet and plunder our economy.

I don't think my vote in MD is going to make any difference.. there is no chance Romney carries the state

When I did my preliminary scorecard... believe it or not, Johnson more closely aligned with my stances... even with me SEVERELY disagreeing on his drug policy

So I will probably, as of this point, be casting my vote for him... if there is more change, or if things change... we will see at that point if I would change my vote

Now... if I were in a swing state, I would seriously consider voting for the lesser of 2 evils again, I.E. voting for Romney.. .but that is not the case for me.. and i think a statement vote towards a lesser candidate with many more conservative stances, could send more of a message to the GOP than just simply voting for Romney because he has the REP nomination

When you vote for someone, you also vote against their opponent. There are always reasons for both. I listed both. Not just one.

He changed his mind on abortion.. What else?

I'm all for changing your mind.. If it's for the better. If Obama came out today and said.. Hey, we're gonna defend DOMA.. And I now believe that marriage is between a man and a woman.. I'd..

 

[Conservadude]

The argument was.. No one EVER lists why they're voting for Romney.. Only against Obama.. I listed both.. In one thread.

 

[g5000]

I think making gay marriage your number one reason for supporting or opposing a candidate speaks volumes about you.

There are much bigger issues facing our country and more dangers emanating from Obama than the "threat" of two men in love filing a joint tax return.
