I'm a Democrat, and I stick to it, mainly because Romney's plan does not add up. If you look at stuff statistically, our best years as a country was when Bill Clinton raised tax rates to near 40%, and we had a 0.1% defecit, which was as close to a surplus as we could have ever gotten. Mitt Romney's "five point plan" involved multiple tax cuts which would not provide the money need to pay of the trillions of dollars we have in our debt right now. Now, granted, I'm not saying that Obama is the best candidate democratically that we can have (he spends too much imo and is too involved in foreign activity) but I'd rather vote for him than a tax-avoiding, unemployed wealthy man who thinks that we should remove windows from airplanes.
