What happens to the lake if Romney wins?

Pineedles · 12-12-2011, 12:09 PM

Romney says he "loves Lake Winnipesaukee."

I know how he feels. Coming back home to New Hampshire can be a great sense of comfort and decompression. I think that if we get Mitt as a president, this kind of tips his hand that New Hampshire might be a likely place to recharge the batteries and get some quality think time.

Mitt who? Newt is the next President and he doesn't have a place up here.

In deed you are correct RGuy..... I while I see it as a great thing for a president of have a place to get away too, I am not sure I want to see it in the lakes region. It might lead to restrictions that none of use are fond of....
It also tends to lead to a real estate boom, which may drive some of us off the lake.....

Not that this would keep me from voting for Romney If I feel he is the right the person for the job.....

Bring on the boom. I am tired of seeing my market value plummet...

I don't think I'd use the term "boom" in any discussion of a Presidential candidate.

These secret service guys a have no sense of humor!

Just Kidding!

He needs to seriously up his game as he is in danger of losing the nomination once again.

Heaven · 12-12-2011, 09:33 PM

I think he is trying to hard to "play the game" and not keeping it focused on his own message.

That is one of the many Reasons I still believe Romney to be a long shot. He starts his campaign earlier then any one else, because he has the money to do so. And while there is no real opposition, his message is always quite clear. He is a business man, he see the opportunity to take a business approach to government. (no different the Ross Perot, and Donald Trump). However as additional candidates start to come into the light, and the political game starts, Romney losses traction, as he has to take hard fast stances on issues, that in the beginning he skirts around. There is a reason this man seems to only play in politics.

I will consider Romney, but first he has to make it through the primary season.

Just a friendly reminder... these forums are for the lake. While it's appropriate to discuss Romney in light of his residence here, lets be careful this thread doesn't branch into a political/candidate discussion.

I hope all the people up here are thinking this way.Would hate to see someone lose because someone thinks it is going to be a inconvenience to them.
