Judging the performers...
I don't want to get into the politics of their positions, but if you
watched the GOP debate/discussion yesterday, what did you think of the candidates as performers? I thought Guiliani and Romney did the best sales job in terms of their grasp of issues and hard-driving presentation, but I liked Mike Huckabee the best. He seems the most sincere and decent. Fred Thompson looked old, unprepared, out of place, even though he told a couple of cute jokes. McCain is trying too hard and it shows. The rest of the crew should drop out now. |

Which stance did Romney take on reproductive rights? He's got several, depending on who's asking or paying attention. |

I didn't pay much attention to their "positions," per se, but, rather, how they performed. Bill Maher said Thompson looked "tan, rested, and in remission." :} |

The difference is much too subtle for you. No. Anything you disagree with, or forces you to think, you consider out of bounds. If you knew anything at all about Romney, you'd know he's a chameleon. He'll say whatever his audience hopes for with regard to certain subjects. He's stated so many different things with regard to reproductive choice that his critics call him Mr. Multiple Choice. And, he criticizes universal health care by calling it a socialist idea, even though Clinton's suggestions are very similar to the one Romney himself promoted in Massachusetts. You should expand your universe of news sources to include some that are intended for adults who give a damn about this country. |
