only worse. Mitt stands for nothing. He's the ultimate empty-suit politician. If elected he'll cater to the neo-cons and teabaggers to keep their support just like he has so far in his despicable campaign.

and who better to pull the strings than the neocons?

Norquist even said as much:

"All we have to do is replace Obama. ... We are not auditioning for fearless leader. We don't need a president to tell us in what direction to go. We know what direction to go. "

If he, god forbid, won the presidency, there will probably several frothing factions all grabbing for his strings at the same time.
