Romney was my last choice of the republican slate. No matter what I think of him now, he is the lesser of two evils. Looking back, without the convenience of the Internet, I recall massive negative articles written about Ronald Reagan, and many of them from the GOP, and an assortment of conservatives, along with the democrats. Everything wrong with California, was laid in Reagan's lap, or so said the pundits at that time. I'm not enlightened by Romney, but there is a chance that he won't be the disappointment most of us expect. We are due for a pleasant surprise. I hope and pray he is up for the role of a lifetime. We will be watching!
In fact in 1980 1% of the pure conservatives voted for the Losertarian party instead of Reagan..
