In defence of Romney

I copyied this from a concervative at another site who sounds like he was there.


"Romney cut the budget here by $2 billion in his first six months as governor. He applied his organizational skills gained in business to consolidate departments and get others to work efficiently. He was very hands-on.

After a couple years, he lost interest, as he started thinking about a run for president. He got too chummy with the Dems who ran the legislature. Contrary to popular belief, he didn't craft Romneycare. It was a proposal that had kicked around for years in Dem circles. Romney signed it, thinking it would actually help him in a presidential run.

It was bad judgment, as is his current defense of it.

Although he's not as principled as I would like, and doesn't respect the tea party, I think he could make a decent president for one term. He knows how to manage things and how to fix things that are broken. Those are skills we'll need after Obama leaves."

Interesting take. Is Obama bored with his job too?

I have always thought that Romney was only about getting to be President rather than having strong convictions.
"I can't have illegal aliens working for me, I am running for President, it could tarnish my image." Rather than you need to fire them and call immigration to deport them or these people are just doing the jobs Americans won't.
