I would hope his central achievement would be entitlement reform, if elected. Romney's tax ideas in general make some sense, but the numbers don't add up, because he won't own up to doing away with all those big ticket but very popular Schedule A deductions - mortgage interest, state and local taxes, and most particularly, charitable deductions (how popular will
that be with the LDS I wonder?). Nor has he even come up with a means testing finesse. So he won't be able to get the rates down as advertised. Mittens is going the all gain, no pain, supply side route. Would that it be so easy. Sadly it isn't. Even sadder, is that both candidates have a big courage gap. It's discouraging.
