It doesn't take an expert to figure out that Romney is keeping a distance from this HOT issue in order not to alienate any faction of voters any more than he has to.. NOTHING new in the political realm. Every politician does this from time to time.
and I think it is a pretty smart move. We have 4 months and a couple of debates plus 2 conventions before the election. Anything he says now can be taken out of context, turned around or can back him into a corner. Now if he doesn't answer any questions directly prior to Nov that would be a different story. He will, his advisors will help him. Romney is no dummy!!!!
Romney's NON-response is completely in line with his campaign plan.
He's purposely being very evasive about specifics of "his" policies. Because they aren't "his" policies. He'll be another neocon puppet if he wins. And he'll be Dubya all over again. With less personality and slightly more intellect.
His handlers have decided to try to make the campaign solely about Obama not cleaning up Bush's mess fast enough.
Yes, that's exactly what i'm saying. There are ways to invoke certain positions without actually stating specifics. That's nothing new in politics, and that's precisely the direction Romney will go until the debates.
So you believe the millions of voters sitting on the fence, thirsting for something of substance from Romney should be held in suspense until then? Are you serious? This is the worst strategic play to make. The news media is already crying about his lack of position on immigration. They would rip him a part. He needs to stand firm on issues instead of trying to pander to everyone. He has no courage to lead with conviction.
Romney should not give in to the radical left who insist that he state his position on the issues. Instead, he should wait until the debates where he can and will provide a clear contrast to Barack Obama. There's absolutely no reason to show his hand 4 months out from the election, only to have Obama twist and contort his message to argue Romney's position.
Yeah, no reason to actually take a position on any issue or issue a platform. Do you really believe this hogwash?
Well if I were one of "you guys" I would be embarrassed to say I voted for or would vote again for obama. And how about carter? And while Clinton was not all bad, he certainly wasn't stellar. Ever heard of living in glass houses?
Romney will provide answers in due time and then the lefties will look even more ridiculous than they already do.
I cannot speak to whatever Romney said with regard to the Arizona ruling yet.
However, I just went to the Romney website today, and I thought it was laid out in a thorough and organized way.

This is the suggestion I was looking for. Why I couldn't think of it myself, I don't know.
You seem very level-headed and informed. Why others cannot be like you, and not resort to insults, idk. Anyway, thank you.

Is his itinerary on there? He will be near me tonight, but it's for one of those mega-monied fundraisers ($50,000 a plate). Is he going to have any events for actual typical middle-class Americans? I promised that I would go see him speak even though he hasn't done or said much to make me want to vote for him.
