16. The rest of the world doesn't want American bombs raining on them

Oct 2012

Despite Mr. Romney's 'peace' talk, everybody else ain't buying it. When you have the 'bomb Iran' guys running your foreign policy team, people aren't gonna believe you.

I'm a little surprised about the results for China and Japan. President O is not wading into the empty islands disputes (Senkaku, Dokdo, etc) on any particular side forcefully, other than to state hopes for the region to resolve the issue peacefully. A wannabe Reagan like Romney WOULD muscle his way into these disputes, making matters worse for our allies (Japan) and trade partners (China).

After his capping on Greece in the previous and this debate, I bet Romney's approval rating in Greece is like, what? 0 percent? minus 50?
