2. I'm wavering between wanting someone else to win the Republican nomination & thinking

Romney might actually be the perfect opponent because he represents everything people hate:

The "born-on-third base with a silver spoon, wall-street corporate vulture, Buffett Tax beneficiary who makes millions of $$$ per year from Bain for doing nothing but getting taxed less then people who get paid based on their labor, Lay-off king, Income Tax hiding, alienated Latino vote completely with far RW immigration policies, Anti-Dream Act, awkward, weird" candidate.

He's not just a member and defender of the 1% but ACTUALLY a member & defender of the 0.1%.

The more you see & hear Romney, the less you like him.

He sounds good in theory - "moderate" Republican from the NE - until he starts talking and his actual record gets scrutinized.

Plus he is a constant and flagrant liar.

PS Never forget Seamus.
