Well, then, you aren't the one who needed the lesson, which isn't to say it wasn't needed.
As for Romney, I think you have mischaracterized him. Yes, he did try to come across as a right winger during the primary, which is what he had to do in order to get the nomination. Now, he's coming across as much more moderate, which, I think, those of us who have been watching have known him to be all along. And no, he isn't going to fulfill the wishes of the extreme right, except perhaps the wish to see Obama out of the White House.
Romney is a man of integrity, a man who has ideals he lives by. He could have simply laid back and lived the good life, but no, he worked, he gave his inheritance away, he gives more to charity than he has to pay in taxes. He's a family man, not just someone who talks about family values. He has business experience, and a history of bringing financially failing institutions back to the black. He has a history of being able to work with the opposing party. If he is elected, I don't expect miracles, and if he isn't, I don't expect the country to go in the crapper like so many right wingers do. I do think more of the nation's problems will be addressed under his leadership than under that of Obama.
But, I could be wrong. If he gets elected, we'll know in a couple more years.
