Ok, so I've been hearing that Mitt Romney is a front-runner for the Republican ticket in 2012. Can I get a hell no! What was the single issue that has geared the people against Democrats? Healthcare, am I wrong?! What did Romney do in Massachusetts? Romneycare=Obamacare. End of Story. Obama is using Romneycare to hide behind as defending Obamacare against being called socialist. Forget that is doesn't work in the slightest, puts companies out of business, rations care, raises costs and puts everyone under single payer in a matter of years...forget all that. We ALL know Obamacare is a bad idea, including millions of democrats(and probably including those who voted for the bill as well). I don't care whether Romney has learned his lesson, I don't care whether he has other good qualities. I simply don't care because for him to actually bring about Romneycare, means his mind thinks along the line of a progressive. I understand he is from Massachusetts and was in the middle of insaneville, but that doesn't mean I want a moderate out of that state. Good for them, not good for us all.
Now, aside from the actual care, what about next election? What is the single largest issue that is going to be used against Democrats in 2012? As it stands so far, healthcare. Of course other issues might crop up, but I can't see healthcare being thrown aside to something larger than 1/6 of the economy. We have to expect it to stay in the limelight. Now, instead of Republicans USING healthcare against them, Democrats are now getting to use it against not only our president, but in state races as well. How does that make Republicans look if the leader they trot out as president created Romneycare, yet the rest of the party are against Obamacare? Can anyone say "I was for it before I was against it"?
Romney will be a complete and utter disaster for Republicans if he runs for President. Someone please pass on the word to him that he should step aside for the good of the country and not rely on people not being fooled into voting for him.
