<<<<<I think Ron Paul is against the military expenditure, not so much the military. He is also an isolationist.>>>>>>

Sure sounds like you are talking the military spending to me!

People, politicians, who can't face the fact that we are spending too much on our military have no credibility with me when it comes to really fighting the issue of debt. That means Romny and Ryan and Obama and all the posters who here pretend our military is needed and is not bloated. There are of course many on this thread that say get out of Afghanistan and a few who want to reduce by a little military spending - but there is NOT ONE who I have heard that wants to reduce the military spending like Ron Paul does.

As to what Romney will do; I don't think we have a clue. He has said virtually nothing as far as I can tell. And even when he does say something it's very hard to know if he means it or will flip on the next interview.
