How does one "embellish" the success Romney has achieved in private enterprise, a far cry from Clinton who lived off government all his adult life?

Romney got a high draft number (unlike Clinton who used the military to stay out of the military) and didn't serve in Viet Nam. There is nothing dishonorable about that as much as we may appreciate the sacrifice of men who have served.

As for the rest of his record, it sounds like you've been listening to people who only tell part of the story. Check out Freeper Unmarked package for the REST of the story.

As I see it there are three viable candidates, none of whom are the ideological conservative I prefer. Of the three I like Romney best. He has a tremendously successful business background, much executive experience and has the mass appeal to beat ANY Democrat along with a clean personal life and a nice family.

You can continue to unfairly characterize Governor Romney or learn the truth about him and stop listening to and propagating the lies and distortions about him. The choice is yours.

The truth? The truth about Mitt is that he: 1. Was pro abortion as a Massachusetts governor and remained so until he decided to run for president. 2. Openly courted the gay vote and even criticized private organizations (such as the Boy Scouts) on membership policy. 3. Was anti-war during his youth (as was his "brainwashed" liberal father). 4. Pro gun control and anti-NRA as governor (now is a "lifetime" hunter). Now, I for one, am open to someone who may believe that women should have the right to choose in the first 12-15 weeks of pregnancy (though I believe there is a point of 'no return') and I do not hat gay people (though I support the rights of private organizations to make membership rules)...I just wish that Mitt would be more honest about his flips and flops on these matters. As for his "high draft number" I remain dubious about his willingness and his conscience about Vietnam and he remains a draft evader in my book, just like Clinton!
