Romney is seeking and getting the endorsement of the may people (and more) this article refers to...and not just the four mentioned,but the scores listed on the article this thread links to.
He needs their money, he needs their active work, and he needs their reputation. he is committing his stance on the issues to them. His stance on the issues (taken by itself) is not bad...read them.
If he does that, he will succeed and the country will turn around. If he turns radically from it, it will not, and he will not have anything to claim or point to, and he will lose the support he is garnering now.
If, OTOH, he stays true to thos commitments, and we dleiver hims the majority house and senate, eh will be unbelievably successful, I expect similarly to Ronald reagan who applied the same types of principles to his turn around.
Romney will want that, he will get credit for it, and he will get an additional four years...all things I suspect he desires and seeks.
So, yes, I beliee he will be true to the commitments he is making now.
I know there is no chance whatsoever for anything like that with Obama.
Again, the chance Romney will trumps the certainty that Obama will not.
I did read them. And since he's the guy who publicly distanced himself from Reagan-Bush, defined himself as a progressive and who governed as a liberal, I simply don't believe him.
Romney will stand wherever he thinks he'll get the most votes. His actions speak louder than his words.
I agree we must have the House and Senate regardless of who is President and that is where my energy and money will go in this election cycle. But Romney is simply a bridge too far.
