Freepers rarely some up with their own slang, though.<br /><br />2. I don't by that Republicans don't want to win the Presidency. Maybe they didn't expect to win in 2009 when this was all getting started, but after the 2010 election and the economy continuing to suck, they know this is something they could do. Too late by then.<br /><br />3. We all miss Cain, though Newt is pretty funny.<br /><br />4. Romney does seem to be a bit like Robert Redford from "The Candidate."

Does he have some grand vision for this country? And what would that be? He's constantly etching, sketching and erasing, so when is he going to leave something on the screen for us to see?"<br /><br />This is a damn good question. Why does Romney want to be President? Mr. Obama made things clear in his run for the Presidency.
