Yeah, except that Romney is no Reagan.
That's countered by Obama is no Carter. He's 5X worse, as if that were possible.
I don’t think it was the Reagan part that beat Carter.
It was the “not a war crazy meanie” that beat Carter.
The race was also similar in that a lot of folks didn’t want Carter,but Carter/Media had were successful in scaring many about Reagan.
When they saw Reagan was jovial and balanced, voters had an alternative to Jimmah that they were no longer afraid of. “There you go again” was effective as much for the smile and way Reagan said it.
If Romney can show that the Obama/Media portrayal of Romney is BS, the result could be the same.
