Romney 2008? What do you think



Recommended Posts

so I am loving Romney right now. He seems like a breath of fresh air in a society where the importance of family is fast being forgotten.

Anyone agree or dare I say disagree?

because we live in Germany right now i missed his Thursday night speech, about his religion. did you catch that? I really wanted to see that.

It seems like he lives what he preaches. He has been married for many years, over 35 i think. I can't remember exactly. I think that he could set a good example for what this country was founded on and stands for.

He also believes in a strong military, and being a military spouse i can't argue with that.

Romney previously was pro-choice, of course, and recently changed.

you know that is the one thing that bothers me about him. I wish I knew how he came upon that thought process. Especially being in a Religion which is against it. Maybe he simply made a bad decision at the time, or maybe it helped his political campaign. Believe me i've struggled with this.

He's not perfect, that is for sure, but has many of the values I'm looking for in a leader.

I just hope that if he gets elected he won't change his mind once again. People do change over time, maybe he did. My own opinions are much different than when I was 20.

I consider myself a moderate conservative and can understand why one could change there mind on that subject. I used to be totally against it at one time and actually agree in it now for extreme cases.

I wouldn't worry, like you said, nobody is perfect, besides, people change, they get smarter;), life experiences change people too... I think it's ok...:(

Romney is way too much of a flip-flopper on issues for me. Almost as bad as the clintoons and McCain

Right now it looks like I am still voting for Ron Paul

I really like Romney....I am from Mass and I thought he was great in office here, not perfect but who is???? I like that he does not have a million cronies that he owes favors too. He does not bring all the political hacks with him.

He and Rudy are my 2 choices....

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
