I would suggest that most people support the ideas that Mitt has.
16 trillion in debt is wrong.Spending $1.40 for every $1.00 collected in taxes is wrong.
Allowing non citizens to cross the boarder unimpeded is wrong.
Giving illegals hard earned taxpayer money is wrong.
Giving illegals amnesty is wrong.
Buying votes by giving hard earned taxpayer money to support union workers earning *$55.00 per hr is wrong. Basically taking money from those earning 40% to 60% less so unions can continue their high wages. A normal legal bankruptcy would not have shut down the auto company, they could have renegotiated contracts and brought costs down. Then I could have afforded anew car. Nah!
Abortion, don't change existing law. (controversial, I took it as, don't change existing law, but he did waffle trying to save his conservative base)
If it weren't for buying the union vote and supporting the illegals the election outcome would have been different. Still about evenly divided but on the right course.
No Doubt, we got problems.

*As David Leonhardt pointed out in the New York Times (countering, in a sense, the earlier piece by Sorkin ($70)), the average GM, Ford and Chrysler worker receives compensation ? wages, bonuses, overtime and paid time off ? of about $40 an hour. Add in benefits such as health insurance and pensions and you get to about $55
