questions? Why do they even run if they don't stand for anything? If they do, why won't they tell you?

Romney was the worst...
Q: "Is waterboarding torture?"
A: "I would have to consult with specialists in the field to decide.
Q: "Should we repeal 'Don't Ask/Don't Tell?"
A: "I would have to consult with specialist in the field to decide."
Normally, I'm ok with someone saying that they don't want to take a stance on an issue until they have more information, but how long has Romney wanted to be President? It's not like these are new issues. Hasn't he had time to do the consulting and formulate an opinion on the issue?

tough questions are hard to answer...
I would find it more refreshing to hear one of them say, for once..."I don't know...it's a tough question and I don't have a short term solution, there is no easy answer I can give you...so... I'm undecided on this issue for now." Rather than the usual....blah blah blah.... god bless america speech that takes so long to fumble out that people listening forgot the question..

If their true feelings were revealed they wouldn't get any votes.

Since the questions were Democrat plants they don't need to answer them? What a bunch of whiny babies.

Exactly the reason why I am supporting Ron Paul.
I don't agree with every answer Paul gives, but at least he answers the question truthfully and doesn't try to dodge or avoid addressing unpopular issues.
