Election 2012

What Could Possibly Go Wrong?

Uh-oh. If Romney wins, it'll be 2001-2008 all over again on foreign policy.

A long-time Republican activist who has been in contact with some of the Romney camp’s more centrist elements said that moderates “are very concerned about the fact that if Romney needs to call anyone, his instinct is to call the Cheney-ites.”

This is a reference to acolytes of former Vice President Dick Cheney. Several top former Cheney aides are among Romney’s advisers.

It's remarkable how many voters are ready to choose a 10-year backslide into that dark pit of despair.
