As
many voters find themselves numb to the barrage of negative advertisements that
presently crowd the airwaves, the election has gained and lost the attention of
millions of voters. Seemingly, it will
be hard to excite the voters enough to make them feel the need to “get out and
vote” as the battle for the highest seat in the country becomes no more than a
backdrop for a struggling economy.

I found that many of my personal views are still aligned with our current
President. I feel that if he is granted
a second term and a new, less-combative Congress, he will begin to create and
pass legislation that will allow America to recover.
As these are
only my opinions and I try to remain objective, I have listened to the arguments
from both sides of the political fence.
To me, Romney seems to use broad, vague terms that really do not state
where he stands on many positions. He seems to only state clearly that he is anti-Obama, but he never states what he would change and how it will impact the average American citizen - not just corporations. In
addition, he continually contradicts himself.
This is a stark contrast to President Obama because you can review
dozens of videos online which show he has been consistent in his stance on many
issues since becoming a Senator in Chicago.
Romney; however, remains flippant, eludes committal to any topic, and echoes whatever
sentiment he feels will gain him approval at the moment.
