Hi Cal,

Thanks for the updates. As of today it looks like the polls are slipping away from Romney towards Obama. It’s going to be close!

Graceforgrace, I thought you might be interested in the following.
If Romney doesn’t have a Republican Senate to work with, his hands are going to be tied to some extent.

There are tossup Senate races in the following states that we can pray for:
NV, AZ, MT, ND, WI, IN, VA, MA, CT.

Keep praying!

Aaron,

Tell me how citing D&C is superficial in your view.

If you wanted to generate a stunningly superficial discussion here, you got it.

Hi Sean,

I agree with you that both have checkered pasts. I also agree with you that Romney is better equipped and capable to handle economic issues. I happen to also believe he will be a much better manager and leader for our country.

Between the two men, I feel that Romney has a much better track record of being a righteous person who tries to serve the Lord. I like that about Romney as well. He does service without politicizing it. Other people have to come out and talk about the service Romney has given them, as written about in the article in Forbes magazine this week: http://www.forbes.com/sites/realspin/2012/10/22/the-mitt-romney-you-dont-know-yet/

Forgive me for my confrontational approach. Too long I have argued with people who refuse to look past rhetoric of either party. Fools who paint one side as righteous and the other side as the embodiment of evil.

Also, if you check Romney’s history, the dude is a RHINO . He compromised, and even enacted what are considered “liberal” policies. He’s not some radical republican capitalist messiah that his opponents paint him as to the ignorant youth who love rhetoric and understand nothing, seeing the world in a good guy/bad guy dichotomy. “He’s rich=BAD!” (Ignore Obama’s millions) You can’t be a successful politician anymore without being rich. The nation is ruled by an olligarchy, and has been since it’s inception. America= the Roman Republic

Honestly, not to be hipster, but you can’t really choose good men these days. Only the better of two evils. I can’t say whether Obama or Romney are good or evil, but I’m going to vote Romney, since we need a more economically minded moderate.

By the way, please don’t try and convince me that Romney is any more radical than Obama. Politicians always promise crazy things to their most ardent supporters. Obama told his people that he would work on a requirement that forced young people to do community service as a college prereq (not a bad idea in my opinion) amongst other things. He was literally friends with a domestic terrorist.

I’m not a conspiracy theorist. I don’t believe that Obama is any more radical than any other politician. I don’t believe that he’s muslim or that he was born outside the US. Romney has a checkered past of his own as well. But I’m not blind to the facts. You can see all facets of men if you don’t look from a partisan window. Romney and Obama, along with most US presidents, have a rosey history of psychotic campaign promises, and then, once elected president, are forced, by reality, to be moderates, because the two party system is fake, and the world doesn’t center on their stances. Bill Clinton and Bush are examples. They both made decisions that angered their parties. (ex: the “patriot” act, a thing that most conservatives and democrats alike despise which Obama, against his previous word, reenforced.)

And gosh. I guess it’s hard not to equate the two, but I’m not voting for Romney because he’s LDS. I don’t believe that he will usher in an era of peace and righteousness, but I do think that he will certainly help balance the checkbook. Any guy who goes after the federal reserve, which by the way is a PRIVATE BANK which holds the power to print and manipulate US currency (as gadianton as any of the drug cartels) is better than someone who favors them in my book.
