(1,945 posts)Mitt Romney has been more sociopathic in his political career than I can stomach.
Most of us can't and won't be pro choice and then make a hard right turn for no exceptions for the life and safety of the Mom anti abortion.
He has the ability to hold all sides of an issue regardless of who is impacted by a policy.
It is one of the reasons he is unfit to be president.
Bush is much more seductive than that. He had a come to Jesus moment after a life time of being a good ole boy. He became a true believer, a zealot.
There is an ocean of difference between Romney growing up in the Mormon faith and being socialized into a religious practice and the religious fire a guy turned good can put forward. It is a difference between a crusader and a church elder.
The effect might be the same, but zealotry can be vastly different.
