George W. Bush vs. Mitt Romney - if you had to pick one who would you choose

[LynneSin]

Seriously, I didn't think they could find a presidential candidate dumber than George W. Bush but geez Romney makes Bush look like a Rhodes Scholar and Brain Surgeon.

So if you had to vote between these 2 candidates and they were your only choices - who would you pick?

1 vote, 3 passes | Time left: Unlimited
	George W. Bush
	1 (100%)
	Mitt Romney
	0 (0%)
	3 DU members did not wish to select any of the options provided.

1. If GW Bush comes without Dick Cheney, it's a toss-up.

With Cheney, I'd choose Romney.

2. hot pokers to the groin

[treestar]

3. A true Hobson's choice

I think I'd pick Bush. At least we know that evil and have a better chance of controlling or opposing it in time. Rmoney strikes me as creepy, Bush as merely incompetent. The same puppet masters pull their strings. Bush is evil but at least he wouldn't put a dog on the roof or forcibly cut someone's hair or push a kid's face in butter.

9. I don't know about that; Bush tortured animals as a child...

...or so it was reported - one of the signs of a psychopath.

4. I'ld stay home and skip that one, one plague is the same as the other.

[polichick]

5. Either poison destroys - I'd decline to vote.

[snappyturtle]

6. I wouldn't vote. I've always voted but this choice would end that streak.

I think the only differece is that rmoney in his business pursuits was more
aggressive (less lazy) than bush.

[PragmaticLiberal]

7. I'd choose W. Bush...and it's not even close.

Not a fan of Bush but I never got the "I'm better than you" vibe from him.

GW's issues (imo) were an inferiority complex that spurred him to put on a macho front.




Now as for Romney, he's just a one percenter. And by "one percenter", I'm not referring to his wealth.


It's his mindset. This is a guy who looks down on "rabble" and believes the rules don't apply to him.


I've said in other threads and I'll say it now. I despise Romney like no other conservative candidate.




PS: I've read some of Romney's book and seen many interviews...and have come to one conclusion.

He's not particularly smart. Honestly, he's just an average intelligence..UNLIKE the last two Democratic Presidents.

8. I'm assuming suicide would be an option. - n/t

[deutsey]

10. That's exactly what I thought n/t

[stevenleser]

11. You absolutely have to have 'out' options in a poll like that. Options like "Not voting", moving...

to outer mongolia, becoming a Tibetan monk, various methods of suicide as another commenter noted. Etc.

[Aerows]

12. God I hate to choose

But I'd choose another round of Bush before I'd choose the twit. I'm also quite sure that as bad as Romney is, and how tonedeaf their campaign is, he's going to choose someone as his running mate that is absolutely awful as he is.

[tawadi]

13. 6 or half a dozen

There should be a 3rd choice. Oh wait, there is!

[HopeHoops]

14. If rMoney steals the election, we should all get those Dubya "Miss me yet?" bumper stickers.

[aint_no_life_nowhere]

15. Romney looks worse than Chimp but he hasn't killed anyone yet

Therefore, while he has potential to outdo the Chimp he still gets my vote. It's tough choice but I'll judge them on their actions so far.

[99Forever]

16. Neither.

Ever. Even as a "theoretical."

[Generic Other]

17. I'd drink a cup of phlegm
