A despicable human being? Why, exactly? He’s not my favorite, but I’d vote for him over any democrat.

Dear Cinnamon Girl; Go to Real Clear Politics . Com and read the Editorial from the Concord NH Monitor on why we must NOT elect Romney President. You will find out why he is “despicable”. Everything they write can be backed up by the facts.

A politician that goes from governing as a liberal (Romney was named the #8 RINO in the country by Human Events magazine just two years ago) to flip-flopping on virtually every major issue and claiming to be as conservative as Ronald Reagn is despicable human being.

As is a man that is habitual liar and backtracks when caught in lies Bill Clinton.

Regarding the lie he told about seeing his father march with Martin Luther King Jr.: Romney says that it depends on what the definition of "saw" is.

A defensive Romney was peppered with questions today on exactly what he meant when he said -- most recently on Meet the Press -- that he "saw" his father march with Martin Luther King Jr. Recent articles have indicated that his father, the late Michigan Gov. George Romney, didn't march with the civil-rights leader.

Admitting that he didn't see the march with his own eyes, he said, "I 'saw' him in the figurative sense."

"The reference of seeing my father lead in civil rights," he said, "and seeing my father march with Martin Luther King is in the sense of this figurative awareness of and recognition of his leadership."

"I've tried to be as accurate as I can be," he continued, smiling firmly. "If you look at the literature or look at the dictionary, the term 'saw' includes being aware of -- in the sense I've described."

The questioning did not relent. "I'm an English literature major," he insisted at one point. "When we say I saw the Patriots win the World Series, it doesn't necessarily mean you were there." (He meant the Super Bowl, of course.)
