Well yeah, I'd expect the Mittster to deliver on one of those three; prize for whomever guesses which one.

Balancing the budget, and eventually running surpluses to lower the national debt load. Mittster will give the federal government a haircut--hell, a buzzcut--it has never seen before.

Will President Romney receive.a.buzzcut in order to show solidarity with the shaven government?

That would be very Johnny Unitas of him, but I am not sure the country is ready for a buzzcut president.

I don't care for Obama Bush, but the alternative is horrifying.

Change your avatar to blue, and you're now a 2004 Republican supporter of George W. Bush!

Just say no to re-electing incumbents who do not deserve re-election.

From the point of view of 2004 Republican supporters of George W. Bush, there probably is quite a lot to be said for having reelected him instead of electing Kerry, in spite of everything. I don't take this view, of course, but I imagine it's true of a lot of people.

Strongly Pro-Obama.  In 2008, I was torn between Pro-Obama and Anti-McCain, so it is refreshing to remove the ambiguity in this regard.  Also, anyone who expects perfection from a President should prepare for a hideously unfulfilling existence.

Barack Obama is cutting the DoD by some $1 trillion. Mitt Romney wants to build a brand new fleet of battleships for some reason. The choice is pretty clear if you want our military reduced.

Very anti-Romney, for the primaries and general.

Probably Pro-Obama if things continue to improve like they seem to be. You rarely see an anti-non incumbent election so it won't be anti-Romney. It'll be anti or Pro Obama.

Oh, I don't disagree, but at this point for either party to reduce themselves to merely Reagan levels of "chest-thumping" would be a major improvement.
