Dear Gov. Romney,
I don’t think you should feel too bad about the results of the 2012 election. Nearly 62 million Americans didn’t reject you as much as we rejected the policies of the GOP. Bottom line, we just don’t trust the GOP to look out for our interests. You see, anytime Republicans think it is okay to pay CEO’s $16 million a year while keeping the minimum wage below $9.00/hr. we wonder how you think that’s okay. The GOP wants to give nice tax incentives to big oil while cutting back on Medicare and Medicaid. How can we trust your party when it seems to us that profit and greed are your basic tenets? Then there is the big government/small government thing. We just don’t get how you can say we need less government and fewer regulations and then your party’s governors and legislatures write laws forcing women to have trans-vaginal ultrasounds before they can have an abortion. You don’t want to regulate banks, but you do want to regulate who can get married. You see to most of America, that just doesn’t make any sense.
We also realize that Democrats don’t have all the answers either. But, one thing we do believe is that that party will look out for the interests of all Americans, not just a select few. So until the GOP can figure out a way to reach out to women, young people, and people of color, forget about winning.
Sincerely,
A Democrat.
