f you can see a major difference between Romney and Obama, you're a better man than I am. They're both well polished great family men snuggling up with the powers of money. I think a Romney President would be very VERY little different than what we have now. Not the worst that we could get for sure, but is more of the same really what you want?

I agree. I think both men see government as something that can potentially do "good" things and therefore it's grasp should be expanded. I think the only difference between Romney and Obama is that Obama essentially wants the federal government to eventually have a hand in everything -- a silent, if not controlling, partner in every endeavor. Obama has also indicated that he favors wealth distribution policies as well, which I don't think Romney necessarily agrees with.

Further growth of the federal government will definitely occur under either a Romney or Obama administration. I think most conservatives and libertarians recognize this and as a result, will refuse to commit to his candidacy until he secures the nomination.
