These presidential candidates give hours and hours of speeches day after day and it is all recorded. Everyone makes these kinds of slip-ups. That's all it is. Like when Obama said "57 states" instead of 50 states. The wingnuts continue to excoriate the President for that verbal miscue, wrongly accusing him of not knowing how many states there are, or worse, asserting that he was cryptically referring to 57 Islamic states. I think we should cut Romney some slack on this one.
Ditto.

no problem, how is Romney going to improve matters?

What exactly has Obama done?

What is Romney going to do?

He thinks gay marriage is normal.

Most people want to treat it as normal

And all you worry about is what some liberal press has to say about the Republican candidate's pronunciation... Romney's heart was in the right place, and that is really all that counts.


Was his heart in the right place recently in Britain, Israel (speaking about Palestine) and Poland?

How about when he said he liked to be in a position to fire people?

How about when he fired the illegals he had working on his estate?

How about when he claimed to be among the unemployed, or within the middle class folks that account for 80-90% of the American public?

Vote him in, see what happens...

I've already seen what Obama has done and how he has done it. If Obama gets another term, the United States will likely become a National Socialistic State. I also would rather be in a position to fire people instead of the one being fired --- wouldn't you? I'm very sure that the Libreral Press is doing exactly what it can to make Romney look foolish and Obama appear smart. They simply take things out of context and try to make an issue of Mr. Romney's religion. Also, the press seems to elude to the affect that a vote against Obama is a racist vote ---- while the opposite is not true... Talk about low blows!

What is Romney going to do, specifically, that Obama isn't?

He just got done saying that the US will become a Nazi state if Obama is reelected. That might be your cue to bow out of the conversation.

I've asked the question "what specifically will Romney do, that Obama isn't doing?" on numerous threads. Nobody gives an answer. I must surmise that the board Republicans either don't know or do know and are embarrassed about it.

A vote for Romney is a vote against Obama. It's the same reason some people voted for Kerry in 04, or Dole in 96. If you don't like the incumbent, you vote for the other guy.

Romney wouldn't have bailed out the auto industry. Romney wouldn't allow tax credits to be used by businesses who manufacture outside the United States. Romney wouldn't hire more people to work in the government. Romney wouldn't have bailed out the banks the way Obama did and the CEO's get bonuses. Romney wouldn't have allowed people with bad or limited credit to buy homes they way the Democrats did and all but destroyed the housing insutry. Romney would not allow people to just waltz into the United States whenever, however they can do it and use/abuse our benifits. Romney wouldn't condone convicted murderers to sit in jail for years at the cost to taxpayers of well over 40 thousand dollars a year per criminal.
