I can't remember too many politicians ever saying their plan is to raise taxes on the middle class. He was just repeating the same lie most candidates say.
I'm just at the point where I'm tired of elections where we're left with choosing who will screw us over the least. I don't see a lot of people liking Romney for a reason other than they dislike Obama. And vice versa.
It's like we're voting for Homecoming King of the United States.

I'm not defending him shipping jobs across the sea. That being said, he was running a buisness and thought that was the move to make. But you would think that the country would now be his buisness, he could use his own expierences to reverse the trends and know how to entice firms to bring jobs back. Wishful thinking, quite possibly. But at least there's a buisness backround there.
I agree with you as far as the popularity contest and blame the media.
