This Democrat is Splitting His Ticket

This has been an incredibly tough decision for me. Unlike the partisans, I think both President Barack Obama and challenger Mitt Romney are genuinely good men. Neither of them is particularly inspirational to me.

Mitt Romney was a conservative when he had to be, and now he's a centrist. But I seem to recall that Obama was a centrist, or perhaps a realist, when he ran for his first term. Once elected, he took a hard left.

I've been disappointed by his obsession with an unpopular medical insurance act, while dithering about our floundering economy. Although his foreign policy approach is better than I expected, his approach to Israel leaves me concerned. What really bothers me is not his so-called apology tour, but his failure to recognize that a Putinized Russia is becoming a very real threat to our national security. This is evidenced by its recent failed attempt to supply Syria with arms. What bothers me most of all about Obama is that the man who promised to be accountable and transparent was not, at least not with Obamacare.
If you don't like Romney's position on an issue, do some research and I'm sure that, sooner or later, you'll find that he had a completely different one a few weeks ago. His alienation of the English, during the Olympics, was absurd.

But unlike Obama, Romney does have quite a bit of Executive experience. He has turned companies around. It appears that his waffling might be an indication that he is, like FDR, a realist. He's willing to do what works, regardless whether it is a Republican or Democratic idea. But does he understand what it's like to be out of work? Will his solutions impose more hardships on an already overburdened middle and lower middle class?

I'm impressed by the way President Obama reacted to Hurricane Sandy. But I'd like to think that most presidents would react the same way.

We've tried the "hope" and "change" for four years. The only change I've seen is in the wrong direction. Instead of hope, I see despair as millions of people have stopped looking for work.

They may both be good man, but neither is an exceptionally appealing candidate. I probably would have voted for Obama. After all, I am a Democrat. But what tilted me towards Romney are two things.

First, the notion of revenge against those who dared oppose Obama. I'm not speaking about Obama's "voting is the best revenge remark" but am instead bothered by what his chief political adviser, Valerie Jarrett, reportedly said to two Obama campaign staffers: "After we win this election, it’s our turn. Payback time. Everyone not with us is against us and they better be ready because we don’t forget. The ones who helped us will be rewarded, the ones who opposed us will get what they deserve. There is going to be hell to pay." Obama's very own Karl Rove, Jarrett has also been tied to foreign policy decisions, where political repercussions should take a back seat.

The second thing that swayed me is the venom from so-called liberals, hypocritically attacking Romney over his religious beliefs, about which they know nothing. I thought those days were over.

So although I think Obama is going to win, I'll be voting for Romney.

Bullshit!! You are voting for Romney, Dent and Smith. How is that ticket splitting you hypocrite. Your baggs are showing.

By the way,I guess all the Mslim hate directed at Chrisian Obama means nothing. All the attacks on his wife and his supporters by the tea extremists don'treally matter.

Again, King of the Hypocrites. You know it and that is why you erase it.

Anonymous said...

Obama has shown that Senators make notoriously poor presidents. They possess no executive experience and are terribly aloof. Obama inherited an economic crisis. Instead of rolling up his sleevs and going to work, he and Rahm and Valerie chose to exploit a "good crisis," passing nearly a trillion dollars in union-saving, cotton candy stimulus and focusing on the hated Obamacare for two years. That's what senators do. They are never not running for re-election. Obama never stopped to actually lead the nation. He blew it.

Governors are better administrators and executives and understand how to be in front of, and in touch with, constituents. Romney's a shit. But he's a huge improvement over the current mess. That says more about Obama's disastrous years than it does about the quality of Romney.

Who the hell said anything about arming the Syrian Goverment forces? Even for you thats a low blow.Simply-- be cautious in how the opposition is armed. File under lessons learned. ( Many or even most area Syrians quietly support the Assaid status quo. One might disagree but understand their plight. The bloody Assaid did offer protection to the Christian minority. )

For those attempting to minimize the very real threat posed by Russia, consider this:

"A Russian nuclear-powered attack submarine cruised within 200 miles of the East Coast recently in the latest sign Russia is continuing to flex its naval and aerial power against the United States, defense officials said.

The submarine was identified by its NATO designation as a Russian Seirra-2 class submarine believed to be based with Russia’s Northern Fleet. It was the first time that class of Russian submarine had been detected near a U.S. coast, said officials who spoke on condition of anonymity because of the sensitive nature of anti-submarine warfare efforts."

Then again, they have no reason be thankful and nothing to be thankful to or for. And yet they expect and want. God bless them.

There is no way the states could afford to take care of many of these natural disasters. Republicans have proven their incompetence when it comes to not only the responses to natural disasters, but their agnosticism on the causes of those disasters. Their heads are either buried in the sand or stuck so far up where the sun doesn't shine that handing them back the keys after they controlled government and caused most of these headaches (or left the federal government impotent to respond) is just asinine.

You have made the right decision Bernie. Obama has turned out to be the great divider, pitting one class against the other, one race against another. He promised to reduce the unemploymnet rate to 5.2%. Four years and yet the rate is higher than when he took office. He has added $6 trillion to the federal deficit and will bankrupt our country with Obamacare. His hope and change has turned to despair and the need for a change of president. When Romney wins we can finally look forward to real leadership and a bipartisan effort to full economic recovery.
