Ya, they do tend to compromise too much.
They thing with Romney is the fear that he might turn out to be what Rudy! promises to be.
And looking at the Massachusetts record, other than that stupid AWB bill he wasn't all that bad. The following is from a pro-Romney site
Governor Romney Is A Firm Supporter Of Second Amendment Rights. Despite a heavily Democratic anti-gun legislature, Governor Romney has been able to work across the aisle to simplify and clarify gun laws in Massachusetts.
Governor Romney Helped Simplify And Clarify Massachusetts' Gun Laws For Gun Owners:
Governor Romney supported and signed into law legislation that clarified the term "loaded gun" so that hunters wouldn't have to unload their guns every time they crossed a public road in pursuit of game.
In July 2006, Governor Romney signed H. 4552, which makes exemptions for the makers of customized target pistols, who, due to a provision within state law, found it increasingly difficult to do business in Massachusetts.
On the 31st anniversary of the Gun Owner's Action League, Governor Romney declared May 7, 2005 as The Right to Bear Arms Day in Massachusetts.
Well it appears that he does hav some positive gun stuff on his side. Unfortunately I understand he signed a MA assault weapons ban. Do you know if this is true?
Especially if you favor "gay" rights and socialized medicine.
The thing is, I don't.
It's starting to look like the next election day is shaping up as a "stay home eating popcorn" day for me.
