    TP, that seems to be ONLY REASON that makes logical sense, if you can call it that.

    If you don't believe in his economic policies, then there's no good reason to vote for him. And if you did believe in his economic policies, you wouldn't be asking the question.

    Party loyalty has a strong pull.

    That's pretty much it. If you loved how things were going before the M.N. arrived, vote for Mitt, because he's going to do the exact same stuff, only a lot more of it.

    So you can expect things to pick right back up in Jan. 2013 where they left off in Jan. 2009.

    I guess the revolution won't be televised. I know the President has his faults and has had Republicans fight him on every issue, but I really can't see a reason to vote for him. I mean Mitt has talked a good fight but there hasn't been any substance. He hasn't presented anything concrete that will make this country better. I hear the rhetoric. I don't here a plan other than he wants to take America back. Back where? 1950's? 1930's? 1860's? 1700's?

    I didn't vote for him but I'll give it a shot...

    Mitt governed as a moderate in Massachusetts and deep down, despite his professed swing to the right to win the nomination, that's where his heart really is. He'll triangulate between the Senate Democrats and House Republicans and finally, something will get done in Washington. And since he wants to win again in 2016, abortion rights will be safe under his watch.

    So yeah, if you want a centrist like Obama but one who can actually lead - instead of being batted around by Congress amid "compromise" after "compromise" - vote for Mitt.

    This morning's latest serving of senile drool out of George Will was the whelp of a beaten cur.
