Remember when Obama said he was closing Gitmo... ?
Eh... watch any debate containing Obama from late 2008 and you see the same thing. Romney is trying to win the nomination and influence Independent voters. This is just the reality of ridiculous politics in our country right now.There is a very big difference between complete ideological flips and running into the political realities of difficult pledges. This is not to say that any politician SHOULD actually be so steadfast that they never change their mind (God, I would hate a person who is so obstinate as to never change their opinion), nor is it to say that any of the previous presidents never changed their minds (you can find examples of all of these things). But what Romney has done is largely an about-face because of the current GOP climate, moving from a very middle of the road, very liberal conservative to very suddenly being a staunch defender of Tea Party values. These are politically motivated switches, not the changing of one's mind over a period of years, not the falsely attributed inconsistency that is personal growth. This is why people are so frustrated by Romney.
I would be perfectly fine with Huntsman in office, to be honest. It's frustrating that he doesn't stand a chance right now.All that being said, though, I would FAR rather Romney in office than Gingrich or Paul. I'd be even happier with Huntsman, but that is never going to happen. The poor fool believes in science.

I don't agree but seeing as this point is relatively subjective, it's not really worthI think you see it much less. It most definitely was happening, and it has happened with every president, this I agree wholeheartedly. I simply feel that the changes Romney has affected in presenting himself feel very disingenuous.
However, you're talking about four companies that Bain Capital acquired or heavily invested in. Do you know how many companies Bain Capital acquires or heavily invests in? Yes, hundreds. You might even recognize some of the companies they have invested in: Dominos, AMC Entertainment, Burger King, Toys R Us, The Weather Channel, Sports Authority, Dunkin Donuts, LinkedIn, Burlington Coat Factory, Staples.....
It's not the point of the video and you know it. The process involved firing people, liquidate assets and file for bankrupcy. This was no accident or bad luck, it's what they call "creative destruction". Destroy jobs and industry for quick profit is fair game. You know very well that some of the companies you mentioned would also be killed, if that were the most profitable thing to do.It doesn't really matter if they failed to be successful in a few cases. (It's probably also important to note that at least one of the companies mentioned in video went bankrupt and closed AFTER Mitt Romney left the company)

No, I don't. You now have a case of four companies where the people who worked there think this happened. Good job.It's not the point of the video and you know it.
