The important thing is Obama hasn't been running, and the goofs from the right and their outside war machines have been pounding Obama with Lies and half truths for months now. What do you think will happen when the left starts to show the real Romney, the real Newt and the real Santorum and what their records were.
Right now nothing has been scrutinized by the press about what they are saying about their programs going forward because they aren't the candidate yet. Their tax plans all (every last one) help the rich and put more of the cost of govt onto the backs of the middle income people, and removing benefits that the poor need.
And almost every republican is saying that we should prepare for war, and if the other countries of the world do not heed our desires of what they need to do, we will destroy you with our military.
Their job programs are all about giving the rich even more money and depending on tinkle down on the heads of those who don't have jobs will somehow turn into them being hired into Jobs all of a sudden.
No the right has had every airway to themselves, and nothing different than what they have been pushing for 40 years or more is coming out, just different ways to get the same old outcome. The wealthy get more wealthy and the rest of us need to learn to be a Dependant society, one that is Dependant on the rich allowing us to participate as they see fit.
How can you expect that failed practices when exposed by Obama and the left will somehow give you a different outcome.
