Please post links about the good, the bad, and the ugly here. Specifically, I'd like to learn more about the dealings of Bain Capital, and was Romney's involvement with that company a net positive or negative. For openers, here's a story about his "I like to fire people" quote: http://politics.blogs.foxnews.com/2012/01/09/romney-defends-fire-people-remark-says-comments-taken-out-context Sounds like it is clearly being taken out of context, and even my latest fav, Huntsman, is doing that to gain an advantage. Frankly, I expect better than that, Jon. |

The good: his bandwagon is easy to jump on. See: Lars. The bad: his bandwagon is easy to jump off. See: Lars. The ugly: his bandwagon is easy to jump on and off of multiple times. See: Lars. |

Why would anyone be interested in discussing the past and future policies of the man who will likely be the leader of the free world for eight years? Why don't you start a Ron Paul thread. :wanker: |

Says the political hack who likes Ron Paul yet demonizes the Tea Party movement. yernuts http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ron_Paul "Paul has been characterized as the "intellectual godfather" of the Tea Party movement.[4][5]" A few more weeks to pass Ron Paul. |

Says the man who thinks a man like Paul, who preaches and follows the constitution, could actually be elected and have any kind of a major impact on our current foreign policy. There is a HUGE difference between hypothetical national security issues and the ACTUAL safety of the homeland. I'm pretty sure Paul would not let anyone just up and bomb the homeland yet you seem to think his views on foreign policy would ruin this country basically overnight..........talk about crazy. IMO, Paul's fiscal policy ideas greatly outweigh what you think are his foreign policy deficiencies. |

+1, as soon as Paul was in the office, he would have the opportunity to truly evaluate the threats out there, and would not put Americans in harm's way. He would also pull us out of areas that make no sense to be in, but for some reason that makes him "bat shit crazy". I think it is absolutely BAT SHIT CRAZY to send our sons and daughters off to die without justification.... |

Foreign policy mistakes are a real wildcard. They could cause zero problems, or result in the mid-east turning into a large chunk of glass, and world instability and poverty for generations. I like Paul's fiscal policy, and would like it even more if he could stop the incessant rambling about the Federal Reserve and reverting to a gold standard. If Paul was nominated, I would probably hold my nose and vote for him because good fiscal policy will trump poor foreign policy. If Romney wins the nomination, will you vote for him next November? |

Foreign policy mistakes -- you mean like getting our military involved in pretty much every known conflict? I agree, those have been huge mistakes. I'm glad to see you finally disavow Iraq. |

Do you agree with oldschool, and believe getting involved in WW2 was a mistake? |

yes, I would vote for Romney over Obama, however it would virtually guarantee another liberal route 4-8 years later, because moderate policies will not help, and the populace will turn away from the GOP again. |
