During the primaries I had my reservations with Romney. I don't tend to vote based on social issues, but it came down to overall trust ...If I can't trust him on his social policy views, how can I trust him on everything else? Currently, however, Romney is one of my two top choices (contingent upon how Obama performs). Since I feel he would best serve the country's needs at this time, I'd be willing to look past any perceived flip-flops. I think this is what we saw with Obama. The majority opinion was that the country was on the wrong track, compounded by the credit collapse in September, so people were willing to look past any of Obama's dubious associations and relative lack of experience. Similarly, I would hope the American people would be able to ignore Romney's abortion switch in the interest of stabilizing the economy.
I hope, of course, that the economy will do a 180 (and I think that it will) by 2012, thereby making this whole operation moot.
