Romney is as gutless as McQueeg.
True. Nevertheless, some folks who've decided to vote for him are finding it necessary to engage in fairy tales about him. The other day, someone was talking about how tough a fighter Romney is, and how he's going to chop Obama to pieces, LOL.
Romney will only fight conservatives, and in the most vicious way he can manage. When it comes to his own kind (liberals), he's a quisling.
The Dems love it when Republican candidates pull their punches. And in this case, they hardly had to raise a fuss to get Romney to turtle. The Dems feared Lee Atwater and Karl Rove, because both were ruthless in defence of their respective candidates. Atwater saved Rockefeller Republican Bush Sr.’s hide in the 1988 election. He could have done the same in 1992 against Clinton if he hadn’t become ill. He was not afraid to exploit the weaknesses of his enemies even if it meant getting his hands dirty. Lizardhead James Carville learned from Atwater’s success and employed the same aggressive strategies in defence of the seemingly indefensible Bill Clinton. The lesson: the bold and unrepentant win elections. The meek and apologetic get trounced. Romney has clearly learned nothing from the past.
