Yeah, I know...the media keeps saying Romney doesn't have a plan. And I'll preface this with the disclaimer that I'm NOT campaigning for Romney - I really don't like the guy at all. But what I dislike more than Obama and Romney put together is the media's constant biased propaganda.

So if you're up for it (and if you're voting you SHOULD be up for it IMO), here's Romney's plan:

Unfortunately I haven't seen any platform for Obama for 2012 poking around their website - just what they've already done. :Whistle

Romney compares Romneycare and Obamacare in 2010:

Romney said his plan was different because it was state plan and his plan did not raise taxes, and did not cut Medicare. (As a Governor, Romney had no authority to cut Medicare.)

It's not that Romney doesn't have a plan...(He really doesn't...Just tired, broad talking-points that he's the "Not-Obama", and whatever Obama did, he'll do it differently...Oh, and by the way, he'll "get tough on China"...[Is this the same China he keeps shipping jobs to?])

It's that a vote for Romney would be a vote for the GOP...

RNC Press Secretary Says GOP’s 2012 Agenda Is Same As Bush’s, ‘Just Updated’
http://www.mediaite.com/online/rnc-pres ... t-updated/

The same tired, failed policies that got us into this mess in the first place. A vote for budgets designed to profit the top 1% and screw the middle-class/lower-class; a vote for ripping out Medicare/SS/Medicaid; a vote for manipulating the Supreme Court even further; a vote for allowing the manipulation of the voting-rights of about 7% of the US population to just to win an election; a vote for taking us back 100 years in women's rights, women's health issues; LGBT rights; Black/Latino rights...and the list goes on.

It would be a cold-day-in-hell before I would vote for Mitt Romney or any of the other extremists that the GOP has put forward. It's not just Romney--It's the whole stinking GOP.

Gary Johnson sounds ok but probably has zero chance against the big 2 parties. Maybe he can make the debates more interesting.

If you want to be, press one. If you want not to be, press 2

Republicans are red, democrats are blue, neither of them, gives a flip about you.

Libertarians swing vote in 2012?

Many of these voters would describe themselves as independents, a group that both candidates desperately need in order to win, said Samples. The libertarian view of limited government and free market economics usually pushes these voters toward Republican candidates, even if their social views are more in line with the Democratic Party.

But as the Cato study pointed out, such voters are not firmly committed to either of the two major parties. It noted that during the George W. Bush years, libertarian-minded individuals moved away from the GOP in response to ongoing wars, government spending and social conservatism, but they returned in 2008 because they believed Obama was a big-government liberal. Samples thinks the 2012 election will look much like 2008.

To further take this thread off-topic, it will be real interesting to see where the libertarians vote. I think lefty libertarians have a lot of issues with Obama and his drone war and being a Bush mini-me on both foreign affairs and continued support for the Patriot Act. Since Romney will do the same, the only place to turn are the Greens or Gary Johnson.

Righty Libertarians? They might have the same dilemna voting for Mitt. I don't see Romney having a sliver of Ron Paul in him. I believe he would be another "W" in spending and increasing the size of the Feds.

I think W had an agenda against Saddam since he threatened daddy, that turned out to be an expensive grudge that Romney wont be bringing in. I dont see Romney growing government as its almost reached maximum density thanks to O. P. R. (Obama, Pelosi, Reid)

Good points. I think whoever wins in November will be very reluctant to put boots on the ground anywhere.
The American public is tired of nation building...of course all bets are off when it concerns drones, cruise missiles and other weapons of war that don't expose GI's to mayhem and death.
