what I get to be your take on the economic issues. you say you want a balanced approach yet you see the guy who doesn't offer up a balanced approach as a better alternative over the guy offering up a balanced approach!  Based on everything you've said here i just don't see how you can support a guy who is advocating for a 20% cut in taxes, an increase of 25% in defense spending, offers little to nothing in the way of specific spending cuts (I know, he'll defund PP) and you say you care about the debt, while his opponent is ON RECORD as offering a balanced approach with significant cuts even if they are not quite as deep as you would like.

Romney has told us what he will do and it is NOT what you all say is what you want done! do you not believe him? And if he has this gop house and a divided Senate do you think he will get this gop house to all of a sudden do what is right? No #badword#ing way! 

1) I don't believe Obama's team has the stones or the skill to work the system as it needs to be worked. Intransigent GOP? Negotiation won't work? Figure something else out. You don't just get to point the fingers and say "It's their fault!" and call it a day. They're professional politicians. They need to earn their paycheck even when the other side is making that really difficult

2) "Balanced approach" doesn't mean much when the cuts side of it is snipping a little off the edges and the revenenue side is jacking up rates into the stratosphere while vilifiying those you plan on taking the money from. The end game will be that spending goes back up once revenues come in, and revenues stay right where they are. "Tax and spend" is morally the same as "borrow and spend".

3) Obama has shown way too much willingness to send govt in to solve an economic situation where they should create ways for free enterprise to do solve it. That's a fundamental tenet to what I believe and is the single biggest reason I don't trust him or his people. When business is seen as and presented as an adversary instead of a partner and/or tool to accomplish great things, I'm out.

Bottom line is I simply don't believe, from what I've seen and heard, that he and his team in any way value free enterprise or see capitalism as a way to solve problems.
