Here is what you said...
"Romney has executive experience certainly, but to say his business background somehow gives him grand insight into what the US needs to be successful is a bit of a stretch."
Romney knows, in the real world, what is good economic policy and what isn't. You could make a case that's a relevant skill in today's world.
OK. I'll ask you for the 4th or 5th time...what had Obama done prior to getting elected, that made you tihnk he had "grand insight into what the US needs to be successful"? If executive experience in the business world doesn't give one grand insight into macroeconomics, what does? Hanging out with Rev Wright? Voting "present" in the IL state senate? Supporting infanticide?
Have fun...
