6. It was rather easy arguing with her. On every subject she brought up

I was able to quote Mitt Romney supporting my side of the argument in the past. Like on abortion, he used to be pro choice.
She brought up the so called War on Coal the right wing is promoting around here, I quoted Mitt Romney saying coal fired power plants kill people and he would not support jobs that kill people. She brought up Obamacare and I said it was patterned after Romneycare. She said well that works fine for a small state like Massachusetts so I quoted Mitt Romney saying the whole nation should have his plan. She brought up the mandate and I said that idea came from the Heritage foundation and Romneycare and Romney said he liked mandates. I saw she was getting quite agitated so I just quit arguing with her and changed the subject.

on edit: With Romney as their candidate it is a peice of cake to argure with them when you can point out a quote from Romney supporting our side. The (only) issue he may be consistant on is tax cuts for the rich, I am not even sure about that. I heard he raised a lot of taxes and fees when he was governor.
