I'm sorry but I don't believe I have done this. If you reread my reply I said I think Romney probably would boost the economy more at least in the short term but I assure you my agenda is not to support Romney. I have no problem with you referencing such an article for discussion purposes. My problem was that you made a claim that "most economists prefer Romney" based on a poll of 17 people. That's very misleading whether I like what you are saying or not.
