Strong Leadership - He just isn't what his ads say he is. He is the man of half-truths.

Romney is dishonest. He is untrustworthy for an electorate. He is deceiving. And he has had election success in dealing in half truths.

BOSTON — Much of the business community in Massachusetts was puzzled. Mitt Romney, a Republican with high-caliber corporate credentials, had run for governor pledging to sweep aside barriers to business and act as the state’s “top salesman.”

But just a few months after Mr. Romney took office in 2003, what he delivered seemed anything but friendly to the C.E.O. crowd: a bill to financial firms for what they saw as $110 million in new corporate taxes — and a promise of more to come....

...For the next three years, the Romney administration relentlessly scoured the tax code for more loopholes, extracting hundreds of millions of corporate dollars to help close budget gaps in a state with a struggling economy. It was only after Mr. Romney was gearing up in 2005 for a possible White House bid that he backed away from some of his most assertive tax enforcement proposals amid intensifying complaints from local companies and conservative anti-tax groups in Washington....

By every indication he did in Massachusetts exactly what President Obama and the tax proposal of Simpson-Bowles states needs to be done. Yet, today and his ambitions of the past ignore that fact and side with exploitation of standards that support the Middle Class. He is flip flops and waivers on everything. His position on anything is as fluid as the people he is speaking to at the moment.
