Why I detest Mitt Romney

Mitt Romney is the most unethical, irresponsible politician in America. I respect Rick Santorum, Newt Gingrich, Ron Paul, or any other conservative who says what he believes. But Mitt Romney will say absolutely anything if he thinks it will help him. As Governor of Massachusetts, Romney supported choice, health care reform, and fair, progressive taxation. Now he purports to believe the opposite. But what really earned my undying contempt was the speech Romney made when he dropped out of the Presidential race in February 2008. Romney said, “if I fight on in my campaign … I’d be making it easier for Senator Clinton or Obama to win. .. I simply cannot let my campaign be a part of aiding a surrender to terror.” That’s right: he said that supporting any Democrat is “a surrender to terror.” If you don’t believe it, watch this: Mitt Drops Out – The Daily Show with Jon Stewart – 02/07/08. That’s like saying that voting for any Republican is like supporting nuclear war. Any Democrat who said that would be driven out of politics. Romney must not be allowed to get away with it.
