Quote from futurecurrents:
Your analysis is accurate if scholastic achievement , especially scholastic and financial achievement is the most important criteria. But what about how the two see science? While on evolution they are the same, on GW, Mitt's (convenient ?) skepticism shows he does not comprehend the issue very well.
But I suspect what he "knows" is very dependent on which way the political winds blow. So can we trust such a shifty intelligence? That scares me more than staid stupidity.
I believe that Mitt believes in GW and is only pandering to the right for the nomination

Romney reaffirms stance that global warming is real
Bucking skeptics, he urges changes
June 04, 2011|By Matt Viser, Globe Staff
MANCHESTER, N.H. â In the first town hall of his freshly announced presidential campaign, Mitt Romney yesterday reaffirmed his view that global warming is occurring and that humans are contributing to it, a position that has been rejected in recent years by many Republicans as the issue has taken on a greater partisan tinge.
After opening remarks in which Romney blamed President Obamaâs policies for the new anemic hiring figures, the first questioner from the floor â a software developer from Hanover, N.H. â wanted to know the candidateâs position on climate change, an issue his opponents have generally avoided so far.
âI donât speak for the scientific community, of course,ââ Romney said. âBut I believe the worldâs getting warmer. I canât prove that, but I believe based on what I read that the world is getting warmer. And number two, I believe that humans contribute to that ⦠so I think itâs important for us to reduce our emissions of pollutants and greenhouse gases that may well be significant contributors to the climate change and the global warming that youâre seeing.ââ
