Romney the same as Dukaka? You've got to be kidding me.

Do these people know anything about politics? Dukaka was the biggest loser the dems have nominated in modern times.

Romney is certainly not the perfect candidate as far as conservatives are concerned but he is orders of magnitude better than Dukakis.

Sorry but this commentary is right up there with Juan Williams notion that if Sarah Palin gets in then Chris Christy would just have to enter the race. That one left me thinking, how in the world does this guy have a job as a political commentator.

Will isn't saying that Romney and Dukakis are of equal merit in the eyes of conservatives. He's saying that Romney is to the Republican Party as Dukakis was to the Democratic Party: The governor who doesn't excite his party's base, but who hopes that his aura of managerial competence will win over independents.

Based on what?

(besides the “R” following his name?)
