Mitt Romney has opened up a double-digit lead over President Barack Obama among Independent voters. Does this mean most Americans don't want to "move forward" to commie-socialist "Progressivism?"

GOP presidential candidate Mitt Romney has opened up a double-digit lead over President Barack Obama among independent voters.
A Politico/George Washington University poll has Romney with a razor-thin lead over Obama among all likely voters, 48 percent to 47 percent. A similar poll in February had Obama ahead by 9 percentage points.
But among voters who identified themselves as independents, Romney garnered 48 percent of the vote to Obama’s 38 percent.
Romney also has a 6-point lead among respondents who said they are “extremely likely” to vote in November.
In other good news for Republicans, the survey found that the GOP has taken a 45 percent to 43 percent lead on the generic congressional ballot, and 65 percent of respondents believe Republicans will continue to control the House after the election.
Democratic pollster Celinda Lake, who helped conduct the poll, said: “There are no fissures on either side, but you have the Democrats less enthusiastic than the Republicans.”
I myself am an Independent who in 2008 made the mistake of writing in for Ron Paul, thereby inadvertently helping Obama get elected. The only difference between a wise man and a fool is that a fool doesn't learn from his mistakes. This time I will be voting for Romney.
Also, I'm no fan of illegal aliens, so both Obama and Paul are not options. See:

Question is what is the independent vote for Ron Paul vs, Obamney?

And Ron Paul actually wants to put the military on the border to protect us. What's Romney's immigration plan? He doesn't have one... http://tucsoncitizen.com/usa-...
Tell me another reason besides that you hate America that sounds more believable. I don't think you can RATIONALLY and LOGICALLY do so.
Also these idiot liberals need to stop saying that America is a DEMOCRACY. We are NOT and have NEVER been a DEMOCRACY. We ARE and will ALWAYS be a CONSTITUTIONAL REPUBLIC!
Look at the empty seats. Obama has lost the independent votes. Possibly the Catholic votes and a lot of the women's votes. Romney is 11 points ahead of the Anointed One in the polls. So much for the HOPE and CHANGE and NO ONE wants to go FORWARD LOL.
You're going to vote for someone you don't believe in? That's irresponsible.
In a Romney presidency nothing will change.
I would prefer any of those listed below but we got Romney and though he is not as conservative as I would like him to be I am just not willing to hand over AMERICA to another 4 years of a Radical anti~American Socialist Dictator by voting for RP. Sorry. Those who vote for RP will be handing Obama another victory. With all due respect that is IRRESPONSIBLE!.

What social issues do you have against him. He's anti abortion, anti gay marriage, pro freedom...
His foreign policy is DEFENSE. He wants out of the UN. HE wants to guard the borders from illegal immigration.
Allen West is a little too wacky for my taste. He's for freedom stealing laws like: The Patriot Act, SAOP etc. He voted for a bill that could jail American citizens indefinitely.
Bachman lets her religion guide too much of her decisions. She's got some great ideas, but she's too galvanizing.
Palin's gone Hollywood and has way too much baggage.
I liked Cain, not as much as Paul though.
And he can't win. I am not willing to hand the election over to Hussein by voting for RP. The future of America is on the decline and I just cannot take the chance of risking the future of this Nation. However I get it. I do.
Can you really tell what Romney is for? I haven't seen a plan for immigration. I've seen him flip-flop. Can you honestly say he has a better plan than Obama? Romney, the guy who invented Obamacare?
If I had my way Rick Santorum/Herman Cain would have been a great team.
Hopefully in 2016 Rubio will run.
"He wants Limited Government and he is for personal and Fiscal Responsibility"
His record says otherwise (more taxes in Mass. and Obamacare)
The more likely scenario is that many Ron Paul devotees will turn to Gary Johnson, the Libetarian candidate and also a far more likeable candidate than Willard. That would be great news for Team Obama. A recent poll asked voters to choose between Romney and Obama, 49% went with the president and 46% sided with his Republican opponent. But when Johnson was included in the poll, Obama led with 47%, Romney trailed at 42% and Johnson managed 6%. Johnson in all probability will get higher percentages in the general. He's a five-time Ironman triathlete. He paraglides and hot-gas balloons. (Not hot air, hot gas.) He biked across the Alps. Certain voters are attracted to that.
Ron Paul is too old and a bit of a loon when it comes to some social issues and on Foreign Policy. Again IMO.
You say social issues, I say 1st amendment rights.... Enjoy Romney and Income Taxes.
And please save yourself the embarrassment of again citing FALSE left-leaning Lamestream reports claiming ludicrously that Obama is deporting more illegals, etc., etc.
For UN-BIASED accurate reports, go to NON-PARTISAN NumbersUSA and to ALIPAC.
There you will learn, among other things, that Obama unconstitutionally issued 300,000 work permits to illegal aliens, and gave de facto amnesty by ordering that deportations be STOPPED.
There is no free college. No amnesty. Those with crimnal histories are being deported first. All illegals are entitled by law to a deportation hearing. That hearing can be anywhere from 6-12 weeks. Where should we house those 300 with no criminal history in the meantime? You have an extra bedroom?
"Obama unconstitutionally issued 300,000 work permits to illegal aliens"
Originally Bush's idea. Reagan did it too.
Sheesh.
