Now, he knows, that unless he is elected, he cannot effectively help the country. "...wise as a serpent, and harmless as a dove..." comes to mind. Jesus encouraged leaders to do exactly this type of action for influence. Wisdom goes deeper than just screaming ones values, which is similar to "...casting pearls before swine...!
He just flip-flopped on his abortion stance, yesterday, while trying to get the Des Moines Register's endorsement.

He gets the nomination and then tacks to the center - typical.

During the campaign he vowed to appoint Supreme Court judges who would oppose Roe v. Wade. How is he NOT going to have this legislation on his agenda if this was his plan for Supreme Court Judges being appointed.

National Right to Life has 23 bills in Congress. What are his plans with that if he doesn't have pro-life as his agenda that he campaigned on during the primaries? He says he is not "familiar" with any legislation, but nine of the bills have 100 sponsors. Three of the bills have 218 sponsors.

I have no idea what this man is going to do once elected.

LOL! So, you support Romney's flip-flopping and Etch-A-Sketching in your case against Obama?

I don't agree with Romney 100%, but I agree less with Obama.

Fair enough. I'm not here to change anyone's minds. But, I will point out Romney's huge inconsistencies. We already know Obama's.

When he tacks to center on abortion, I trust Romney less. Mainly because he has already enacted in his state the things we were afraid Obama would do. If we are voting on lesser of two evils, why are we so afraid of Obama? lol

Today, Rand Paul says Romney is wrong on his foreign policy in the Middle East. I agree. Afghanistan and our utter failure, because of the nature of the people and region, should be a good place for Romney to draw a distinction between wanting to fund the Syrian rebels and taking the authority to enact war which, incidentally, belongs to Congress.

Yes, it does. It's worse when you find the spinning coming from the Republicans who always blame the Democrats when they are acting the same stinking way. As you can tell - I am FED UP!! :tofunny
