General election mitt is actually pretty moderate. Although I agree it is hard to know which mitt you are getting. His history seems to indicate he would be a pretty moderate president though.

I worry about that. Mitt pretty much had to be a moderate Republican governer in Massachusetts, because the state legislature was 87% Democrat. The Republicans in congress today are a different story!
|
Yeah, but he comes from a pretty moderate family too. I think the real Mitt is more moderate than people think. However, he sure has made it hard for people to figure out what he actually stands for.
Ultimately, I think Romney would be better at bipartisan efforts the Obama, he certainly has more experience with it.

I'm just not sure that there *is* a real Mitt. Pretty much the only positions he's consistently held over the past four years are that (a) he wants to be president, (b) he doesn't like Obama, and ( c) he wants to keep wealthy Americans from paying more taxes.

One position that he has been consistent on is increasing the minimum wage to match inflation. Not exactly a popular position with republicans, but one that i like and one that would certainly help the poor.

Listen to yourself...."ONE position that he has been consisten on...." If he isn't been consisten on anything, there's real cause for concern as to what he'd do as leader of the free world, America. And you went on to say that the one area whre he has been consisten on increasing minimum wage!! Are you kidding. He's said that he plans to get rid of minimum wage, completely!! He doesn't want to have it at all. He thinks employers should be able to pay their employees as little as they want!! Look it up. It's on the record. Please, please watch some news channels like MSNBC and don't watch Fox. It's so imperitive that you get educated on the issues, fast, so you can make a properly informed decision.
