it's the blind part that's frustrating. you come across as the type of person that will take anything a democrat does (or doesn't do) and claim it's bad, even do mental gymnastics to explain to yourself how it's bad. If a Republican does (or doesn't do) the same things, you'll go out of your way to try spin it into something good. Like i said, logic out the window.

so the answer then is nothing that Romney will do better
just anti-Obama
that's illogical
(The reasons I don't support Obama are NOT things that Romney will do better with, thus I am not a Romney supporter)

Obama hasnt delivered on a number of his promises. Closing Gitmo, cutting the deficit, no lobbyist in his admin, ending the bush tax cuts, etc.
Not to mention what all was promised about the stimulus and the ACA which were BS.
For me spending and the economy are the two biggest issues for this country. We cant afford our current level of entitlements yet Obama keeps on expanding them. Not a recipe for long term success. I think Romney understands what it takes to run an economy, and govt doesnt help with adding more mandates that make doing business cost more. (both in the costs of employees but also man hours of complying with BS forms)
I like Romney's pledge to simplifying the tax code and cutting capital gains taxes. Do I think they will be able to cut the size of govt? no. Do I think they wont expand it like Obama has? yes, no doubt about it. They wont touch current debt drivers, which are entitlements. Without addressing those the debt will continue to grow, rapidly. THe boomers are coming on these programs and we have less younger peopel working or wanting to work too. Takign on water from both sides.
What are your reasons for voting for Obama? What makes you think his second term will be any better than his first? (which most not totally blind/biased will say has been very disappointing)

not voting for Obama
Obama/Romney support big government and big corporations and don't do enough to support poor and middle class americans.

The point isnt do I think Romney will do what Obama promised, it is that Obama hasnt done much of what he was promising in 2008 to get elected.
I honestly think Romney has a better chance of cutting the deficit than Obama would if reelected. Preventing the ACA is huge in that regard. Of course both will release budgets that cut the deficit in 2100. haha I do think the republicans are much more likely to pass a balanced budget(hopefully an admendment) than the dems.
^You sound like you favor a libertarian view, then talk about the govt helping low and middle class. Doesnt make sense.
BTW, if given the choice of big govt or corporations, Ill choose the corps bc they cant legally take my money without my permission. And usually provide me with a service I want to boot.

it is for Eaton Bush. He is voting against Obama because Obama hasn't gotten things done. But those things will not get done by Romney, so its it an illogical substitution

Ok, I see what you are getting at. I thought you were just making a general statement. Sorry I jumped in.
^why you should support a limited govt. Corporations invest in govt because they have the power to force the people to do things. Money will continue to pour into govt as long as we accept that that is acceptable. The ACA will only make this worse. We now have the govt forcing everyone to buy a product from a private company, if you refuse they will take your money and hand it over to them anyway. Now what business wouldnt favor that? Forget spending millions on ADs, spend it on the unlimited power of politicians.

^the only way Romney is going to cut the deficit is if congress goes into sequestration.
His Economic policy is 100% smoke and mirrors. If you take even an hour to look at what he is promising, the numbers don't even come close to adding up, even in a best case scenario.
And all those entitlements that Obama has out in place? Guess which ones Romney will get rid of? None of em.
The really sad part about the whole thing is that regardless of who is elected, the economy will continue to recover in the short term. The ramifications of this election won't be felt for 15-20 years from now.
Much like we are paying the piper today for the horrible policies of Jimmy Carter and Ronald Reagan. 10/30/2012 3:58:00 PM |

Noen the ACA is one for sure. Stopping that will lower the deficit.
I also think eliminating the capital gains tax will create incentives for people to invest their money, this creates economic activity among job creators. So does lowering taxes. Which will lead to more hiring.
I also dont think romney will continue to expand food stamps eligibility levels, and other such programs either. 10/30/2012 4:09:11 PM |
