Current Massachusetts Goveneor Patrick Deval has claimed that Mitt Romney has flipped flopped on gay marriage while Barack Obama didn't flip flop but "evolved" on the issue of gay marriage:
Massachusetts Democratic Gov. Deval Patrick slammed Mitt Romney as a flip-flopper on Sunday while defending President Obama as leading through “convictions,” a reversal of the attacks launched by many Republicans against Obama.
“I think what we know is that Mitt Romney has occupied many positions on many issues, and he has, you know, back in 1994, when he was running for the United States Senate he said publicly that he would be better than Ted Kennedy on gay and lesbian issues. He takes a different position in front of a different audience today,” he said on ABC’s This Week.
Alternately, Patrick said that Obama “is running on and leading through a set of convictions.”
Patrick was referencing Obama’s admission that he supports gay marriage, a position that many critics have called a flip-flop on the issue, with Democrats defending it as an “evolution.” But Patrick’s statements make it clear that neither candidate is free from the accusation of flip-floppery.
Deval Patrick knows about flip flopping since he took Mitt Romney's $ 2 billion surplus that he left at the end of his term as governor and flipped it to a whopping $101, 908, 205, 432 debt (as I write this post) for the state of Massachusetts. Governor Patrick Deval has taken Mitt Romney's surplus and squandered it and is on track to be about 1.5 or 2 billion dollars in debt. What's even more amazing is that Governor Deval has been receiving $7 billion in federal stimulus funds for the las two years and Massachusetts which hasn't helped reduced the deficit.
In fact, his spending is so outrageous since he blew money on himself and his staff which made the citizens of the state very unhappy. Thanks to Deval Patrick's leadership, Massachusetts is in debt. And what's his solution to fix the problem? More spending
Govenor Duval has flipped the state back to the same level of debt before Mitt Romney became Governor of Massachusetts and he hasn't improved the state financially but regressed back to the same old problems. 
This is a very clear indication of poor financial leadership.

Who Has A Better Economic Record: Obama Or Romney?

With the general election underway in which Mitt Romney will challenge Barack Obama for the Presidency, both candidates will try to make the case that they are the one who can turn this economy around.

Unfortunately, Obama cannot make that case because he's never been serious about improving the U.S. economy. And it shows. Now that Obama has been in office for almost four years, his economic record is something that Americans are not proud of.

Obama's reelection strategy is to blame the previous administration for the current problems. If that's the strategy he wants to use in this election, its not a very good one because he hasn't done anything to fix the problems he has inherited from the Bush Administration. Take a good look at the chart below and you'll see why:

When Mitt Romney was governor of Massachusetts, the previous administration had left him with a terrible financial mess for him to deal with. When Mitt entered into office in 2003, he was a left with a massive deficit of approximately $3 billion. Mitt Romney did not complain about the previous administration nor did he attempt to place the blame on anyone else. He simply went to work to balance the budget. By 2005, Mitt Romney had a budget surplus of $1 billion and by the time he left office in 2007, he left the state had a $ 2 billion surplus. Moreover, when the state was threatened with a loss in credit rating, Mitt Romney took swift action to take care of the problem.

Mitt Romney's economic record stands in stark contrast with Barak Obama's. Our economy is in grave danger and we need a candidate who knows how businesses work, knows how to create jobs, and how to whip a government back into financial shape.

The choice for who should be the President is clear. We need Mitt Romney in the White House. You can make that happen by voting for Mitt in November.
