...WOULD you have voted for? Had the Republicans not been such dumbasses?

You are allowed to answer "Romney", if that's where you are going if he gets the nod.

I won't be ridiculing you. I want to know. However, I can't promise others won't jab at you.

Romney is a lot like Obama. I now think I would vote for Obama over him if a vote for Obama would guarantee no war with Iran

Democrats can't wait for the Republicans to have their candidate so that they can start claiming they are only voting for Obama because the Republican is so bad.

This was their plan all along regardless of which Republican was selected.

Can't think of anyone around today. Republicans have pretty much gotten rid of all the moderate ones. Bloomberg had possibilities.

Back in the day...the first Bush, Nelson Rockefeller, George Romney, Eisenhower, perhaps Gerald Ford. Heck, maybe Nixon if he hadn't been a paranoid hate monger. He had some pretty decent ideas.

That would be assuming the Democrat in the race decided the only way to win was to pander to the right, like Clinton and Gore did. I'd rather have an honest conservative than a pandering moderate/liberal Democrat.

I would be ok with any of the 3 except Santorum. A month ago I would have hated having him as a President, but after hearing him in person I would only dislike it.

The Republican party polices are anti-middle class. I couldn't get behind any of their candidates.

I like Romney. His tax plan is moronic, though. I'll probably abstain from the presidential election again this year.

Romney is a true moderate. This is why he doesnt have his party's total support

Romney isn't a moderate, he's a classic blue-blood republican. He is interested in promoting policies that favor wealth and uninterested in culture war. You might call him moderate on social issues but on the economy he is more aggresively pro-wealth than George Bush II was.


A moderate republican is someone like George Bush I who raised taxes when he needed to and was cautious in Iraq.

I'm not American but if I was I'd be more or less forced to vote Democrat.

So in that situation if I had to go with any of the republican candidates I'd have to go with Romney, he's the only one not showing epic signs of religious insanity and malenvolent stupidity.

and I actually like his flip flops he's a pragmatic person and he has to pander to the stupidity of the republican party to get the nod.. He'd be worse then Bush but Santorum would have you in a holy war within a week and Gingrich is just a corrupt lying douchebag.
