Can someone who voted Romney in the poll seriously explain why they did so?

Yes, in very simple terms: nobody would re-hire someone for a contract job that didn't actually manage to fulfill the terms of his contract.*

And no, I don't care about the excuses just like i wouldn't care about them from someone I paid to do my roof--you either get the job done, or you don't. If you don't, don't expect me to hire you for more work.

The end.

P.S. If I have to explain it any better than that, you're not listening or, more likely, don't want to listen.

*Except those blinded by ideology.

I understand perfectly why someone wouldn't want Obama back.

However why are you voting FOR Romney?

I wouldn't vote for Romney.  Even so I can see a lot of reasons you would vote for him... off the top of my head.

Economics.  He has a much better grip of it then Obama.  For example, his often untalked about plan to remove capital gains taxes for anyone who makes under 250,000.  Which you would think would greatly increase the personal investment rate, which currently happens to be the area of GDP that we're really lacking in.

He was govonor of Massachuteses - Which shows that he actually knows how to compromise and accomplish legislation with bipratisian support. 

While he agreed with Obama's drone policy he didn't seem overly agressive on it.  Makes me think it might be a poltiical move.  Since by all accounts Mitt Romney is a devout mormon.   So there is at least a chance that he would run a less awful drone campaign then Obama... and hoenstly, it'd be damn near impossible to run a drone campaign that was any worse.

He's more likely to fix medicare/social security/welfare.

He's more likely to stop the country from going over "The fiscal cliff".

He's more likely to remove the negative parts of regulations while keeping the positive aspects of them.

He wants to simplify the tax codes by getting rid fo a lot of deductions... espiecally evening them in the buisness sector so that all buisnesses play by the same rules.

He's more likely to reduce the deficit, by a small inconsquetential amount... but it would be less small and inconsequential then Obama.

Romney actually probably would close guantanom bay, because Democrats would be mad at him if he didn't....

and the biggest one....

all the neoconservative bullshit stuff that Obama does would get called on by democrats if Romney was doing it instead of them "backing up their guy" and having zero party for civil liberties.

I mean hell, the guy just signed a bill that allows american citizens to be detained INDEFINITLY if they are "suspected of terrorism" and nobody even remotely mentions this.

Reasons that qualify you for being suspected of being a terrorist?   Missing fingers is one... so I guess there will be a lot of shop teacher jobs open.

Having more then a months worth of food.  Guess they're just going to have the CIA arrest everyone who shops at Costco.

The only reason we even have the fiscal cliff is because of that wrecker Grover Norquist (likely the one person i hate most in this world) and a bunch of grandstanding Republicans who'd work with Romney in a split second once he's president.
