I guess I don't understand how you come to the conclusion Romney is the Lesser of two evils because you think he will govern as a moderate when you know for a fact Barry is going to govern like a moderate. Especially WRT foreign policy.
That's a good point. GW ran on a more moderate platform in 2000, but let the hawks around him convince him to take more neocon positions especially after 9/11. Wouldn't surprise me if Romney falls for the same stuff. The neo-con movement is still strong in the party, especially with the younger guys like Ryan and Rubio.

Since when is he governing like a moderate? The NDAA isn't a moderate stance. He's subtly leading this country into a war with Iran. His health care plan isn't a moderate stance.
I think Romney will be OK. I want to replace Obama as much to get rid of his appointees (Holder, Janet Incompetano, etc. as to get rid of him.
I guess I think that put in the same situation, Romney would have signed the NDAA as well but without the (useless) signing statement. WRT Iran, I guess you did not hear the bit of saber rattling Romney dropped in his speech last night? Much less subtle than anything Obama is doing. And healthcare? That POS is about as moderate as anything you are going to get assuming you want to do anything about the problem.
Still evil, still not worthy of anyone's vote.... this kind of thinking has helped derail our political process, tbh....
How's he evil and do you think there is a third, virtuous choice that will take office next January?
If you agree Obama is the greater of two evils, you'd be wise to vote for the lesser because, there isn't another choice this November and any vote not cast for Romney is a vote for Obama...the greater of two evils.
He's also gonna do everything Obama did. He's gonna keep the Patriot Act going, he's gonna keep spending hundreds of billions on the military, he's gonna ignore or national deficit and spend on en lement programs for his voters, he's gonna keep the nation building going in the middle east, etc. Neither one deserves the vote.
Actually, I feel comfortable voting for Gary Johnson become iI think Mitt will still win Texas easily.
As a liberal who lives in Arizona, my vote doesn't count regardless. That didn't stop me from voting for Obama in 2008, but he's done enough stuff that I fundamentally disagree with where he doesn't deserve my vote again. Someone in my shoes isn't exactly casting a vote for Obama by not voting for Romney.
And I think Clipper Nation was saying he doesn't consider either one to be the lesser of two evils. I consider Obama the lesser of two evils, but I've had enough with the Democratic Party never taking a stand on anything or doing anything because they can get votes by saying, "Well at least we're not that guy!"
Obama is a neo-con when it comes to foreign policy, lol.
Barry and Mitt are basically two legitimate turds on their own right.
I don't see either guy as a lesser evil either... and the people who vote to "get this guy out" and completely overlook that you're putting this other guy in are just missing half the picture and not really voting with conviction, IMO (except for team players, obviously, who are too emotionally invested with the team to really care about what exactly they're voting for).
romney has paid a lot more in taxes than you
If you're going to give Romney nicknames, at least put some effort into it or just call him by his legal name. Gecko? Really? Wall Street? How many hipsters get that reference?
Must be a child if you don't get the reference. Jab on the spelling. Not the name.
Gordon Gekko
you going to penalize obama cause he cant get done through the senate where his party is the minority there?
You have that backwards between the senate and house.
Democrats are stalling house legislation in the senate.
