I just read Wikipedia on WIllard Mitt Romney.

Fun read. He's an accomplished guy, no denying.

To me what's fun is that one of Republican potential nominees is basically a Lloyd Blankfein/Dick Fuld/Jamie Diamon kind of guy, no mistake. Even better, he's smarter PE VC kinda guy. Republicans can do only better if their pick would've been someone like LTCM's John Meriwether or even John Paulson. I mean you can't be more funny. I can't even figure out what republicans like and what they don't like - do they like the idea of capitalism or not? Because Romney is perfect example of capitalism at its maximum. So why is he now called liberal and bad? How's Gingrich who's record arguably is much less distinguished by virtue of being a politician all his life, is any better?...

I don't know, i think republicans should embracy the HUGELY successful Romney to run USA Inc. I think this country could us a little more business sense and a little less politics. Debt is way too much and I think Mitt will actualy KNOW what to do in ballpark terms to get things reasonable (i.e. he'll probably cut the government a lot and eliminate waste, his whole life he's done that and successfully). He's so rich he doesn't need to make money anymore, he'll be after legacy, greatness etc and that may benefit US, perhaps (one can hope). But he is obvioulsy way out of touch in terms of what money's worth to him and to regular people . i say make fun of that, not shy of it. They can't dig much on the guy after all these weeks - what, he has a photo holding dollar bills? Come on.

On balance if he makes US profitable I think it's good. I think Dems will actually work with Romney as opposed to NG who they despise.

that's my take on the matters from abroad. Looks like gonna be a fun election to watch...


only downside - a republican in white house = middle east war.
