Mitt Romney currently has 17 foreign policy advisors who are former Bush-Cheney neocons. Three of these neocons in particular should disturb any American who is tired of endless wars and questionable CIA and NSA tactics: [video=youtube;0TZh_Hnsf2o]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0TZh_Hnsf2o[/video]
One thing that stood out in today's debate: Back to war (starting with Iran), make more enemies to kill - vote Republican More peace talks & a lot less innocent lives lost - vote Democrat
Funny analysis since BOTH parties say they will not allow Iran to have nuclear weapons. In fact, they agree on almost every topic that came up. Although it is clear Romney talks more truthfully about Russia. Not sure if that is because he is not yet President - time will tell.
Online bets are open actually. We all know that if it is R, wars will be on the agenda. It's just a matter to know which countries. Personally, I bet a few $$ on Brasil and India. Their odds are at 250/1 Iran and North Korea are only 1.2/1...No money to be made there

Ugh! I bet most people on here, who plan on voting for Mitt Romney, do NOT even know who Dan Senor is, and why he is the last person on earth you want giving foreign policy advice to anyone.
Look everyone, it's Glenn Beck turned liberal. As Glenn so painfully proved to us, nobody actually cares if the President kicked off his campaign in the house of a known terrorist, or has surrounded himself with hard core social justice advocates who fundamentally hate capitalism. I'm not sure if you are a paid campaign advocate, spamming this forum with thread after thread this late in the game, but opening up that many threads of idiotic videos and talking points is a great way to get ignored around here. Unlike debate #2, Romney refused to get down in the mud with Obama last night. Of the two people on stage, Romney looked calm, comfortable, and presidential. The body language coming from Obama was horrifying. He was quite literally glaring at Romney and leaning in towards him through much of the debate. He kept looking to Bob for either a) Bob to inject himself in the debate like Candy did or b) to grant Obama to interrupt Romney despite the fact he carried several minutes of extra talking time throughout the debate. Of the two candidates, Romney was the one talking about clear and concise plans for the future, while Obama could only attack with the same dumb Democrat memes. I guess nobody told Obama bayonets are standard issue to every Marine in the force. What a dumb ass. The only complaints I've seen made about Romney's performance have been a) that he didn't attack Obama enough on Benghazi, and b) he agreed with Obama on too many items. You can see Obama was shocked as well. It completely through him off his game, which is probably why he looked so pissed off all night. IMO, the verdict is in on Libya, and Americans have decided (accurately) that Obama both failed to secure our consulate for political purposes, and that Obama later lied about the causes for political purposes. None of this comes as a surprise, even to the most hard core Obama supporters, so why drone on about it? Obama lied, people died, America came out looking pathetic, and Obama said no big deal. Regarding agreeing with the president, I thought it was awesome. I have never understood why candidates in debates feel the need to take the opposite of every one of their opponents positions just so they can argue. Anyone who watched the debate knows that Romney was crystal clear on the President's many failures and how he would have done things different. We all have our own opinions, but I think Obama is toast. @GRPaul: Right on. I wonder if even a single media outlet will call out Obama's blatant lie where he claims he never tried to establish a status of forces agreement and keep troops in Iraq, as we should have.
