It's only flip-flopping if the changes are bad. In Mitt's case, they reflect maturity and that he has grown into a leader worthy of national office.

So I voted for Obama (you may now commence the vegetable throwing).

Don't sweat it......a couple more stimulus bills and the whole USA will be just like California

Arnold isn't eligble, as he wasn't born in the U.S.

I, too, would have voted for Mitt. He seems like a guy with a lot of scruples and some pretty savvy business and political strategies. Hopefully he'll be running in the next election. Yep, he's got my vote.

I'm curious to know what he had going on in that noggin of his for our current econimic situation were in.

Romney did some sort of health insurance thing in his state that the conservative continually brags about, but when we look into the facts, it was a complete sham and left most people in the state uninsured; and i think we have had all we can handle with George bushs idoletry of running the country as a "business". if we remember when he originaly campaigned in 2000. his "business" leadership sure did help us out didnt it?
well mitt romney was running on the same principle. being a "business" man; but i must say also romney is about 500 times more inteligent than bush. {either the first or the second}.

and no way would i have voted for him; although i do admire his being l.d.s of course; if any l.d.s person were to become president, it would be virtually impossible to keep a "worthy" temple recomend.

I'm not sure I understand this, could you explain more what you mean? Would it be because of infidelity, not paying tithing, or what?

I'm just curious.

While I'm not expressing my opinion of his plan (because I don't know much about it), it's only fair to point out that the Dem's took his plan and skewered it 80 times over before passing it. What went into effect in MA was not Romney's brain child...

Well I'm guessing that as POTUS, the answer to "are you honest in your dealings with your fellow men" would be a resounding "NO!!!!! Haha, are you serious?"
