gergroy said: I have been undecided mostly because i dislike all the choices. However, I have decided I am going to be one of those people that votes against somebody instead of for them. So i have decided to vote for Mitt Romney. My reasons mostly stem from the early portion of Obamas term when he had a super majority in congress. The economy was in the tank and instead of working on that, he pushed for healthcare that ultimately ends up being a large tax on small businesses. He also didnt bother with bipartisan efforts during this time either. Basically, I dont like how obama handled his term, and im not a fan of Romney, but I think it I would rather see somebody else get a chance then another term of Obama. A little caveat here, I live in Utah so my vote doesnt actually matter. Utah will go for romney by over 70%... |
Thank you for reminding people of something Obama would like us all to forget... his two years with a supermajority and getting only health care done. He can't blame the Republicans for an "obstructionist" congress when they had no power. In fact, there has not been a budget passed in Obama's presidency. This is a first. So yeah, you can blame the GOP for the last two years... but in the first two years they did nothing, either.

You most certainly can blame the Republicans for that. The can filibuster anytime they want. And slow down, obstruct, and impeede the progress at every turn. Which is exactly what they did! This is why it took so long to get the healthcare plan passed! Not just because Obama is lazy, and didn't feel like getting it done that day. It's preciscely because of the Republican party, trying to make Obama look as if he did nothing over 4 years. Make no mistake about it, Republicans filibustered an UNPRECIDENTED number of times, and blocked the nations growth under Obamas presidency for political gain. Don't let their blantant abuse of politics work in their favor by voting for Romeny.
