If you think Mitt Romney is a flip-flopper, read this:

Romney flip-flop


"I have analyzed every accusation to believe that Romney flip-flopped and they are all bogus. If you don't believe me just look into it yourself."

The man is right. If you want to trust sound-bites, partial research, and rudimentary characterizations, then listen to the smear campaigns who say Romney is a flip-flopper. He's being attacked from every angle. Mitt Romney is an intelligent guy with a complex history, but you can trust the words of his adversaries or you can do the research yourself.

I think the site above takes a well-rounded look at what Romney has actually promised in his campaigns and what he's actually done. But if you don't trust it, by all means, go ahead and be more comprehensive. Ignorance toward Romney's past is Obama's number one ally.

Okay, let me get this straight. If someone double-speaks, they cover support for multiple sides of an issue, therefore all some blogger needs to do is show that they were double-speaking all along?

Yeah, that is not proof that he doesn't flip-flop. It's the contrary, it's proof that he has held multiple stances for quite some time.

Are you really foolish enough to think you can merely bring a collection of neatly worded salesmanship for Romney...and all the detractors of Romney will just say, ''oh, well, I guess Romney is a straight-up guy, let's forget his shady past and all vote for him.'' - You actually think that?

And Gingrich will be in the same uncomfortable position, in the not too distant future. The 'R' Party is run by a collection of Clowns. And, in this season of candidates coming out...that's all the party has been able to come up with.

I think calling him a flip flopper is a just a convenient excuse. As I have shown on here before, most of the other candidates have actually flip flopped more than Mitt Romney ever has. Newt Gingrich might be the worst. However, when they do it, it's calle changing your mind...lol. Yeah, right.

Are you serious? You think people can't see Romney's flip-flop's? In the last debate we say Romney flip-flow before our eyes on illegal immigration.

One supporting a state healthcare plan, and opposing a federal one, doesnt make you a flip flopper. States and federal governments have different jobs to do.

Have you seen the list of Newt's flip flops? Even Ron Paul has a considerable list.

Did you even read my post? Brief, contrasting blocks of text taken out of context and juxtaposed with one another can make anyone look like a flip-flopper. That's just mudslinging, nothing more. Like I said, you can actually look into the history of his stances and policies and do comprehensive research, or you can trust conveniently placed sound-bites and quotes reflecting partial research, as presented by smear campaigns such as the sites you posted.

Maybe you should actually look at the site.. If you can refute any of the information on there, go ahead. That's the whole point. He only seems like a compulsive flip-flopper if you've been misinformed, which the media and anti-Romney campaigns have done a good job of doing.

But like I said, you don't have to trust some blogger who's done his research. You can do your own. Maybe some people have forgotten that smear campaigns and anti-[insert any politician] websites are more conducive to propaganda than they are legitimate research.

Really? Because I call BS, I'd love to see that list, full of quotes, links to the articles or even better audio/video of them.
