“As a successful businessman in a tough, complex, and cutthroat field, Romney learned as much about strategy, planning, and the vagaries of human nature as it is possible for one mind to hold, and he has not forgotten a single comma of it.”
Agree with you on this, and regardless of the purity of his conservative creds (which are not that great, in my book) I respect him tremendously for his business acumen. The idea that his moves *accrue* to his cause over time (vs the spaghetti-on-the-wall gambits tossed out there by 0bama et al) is something that *can not be faked*. Well more than half of the crap 0bama pulls ends up detracting from him/his cause after a few days percolation time; and to me, this is what will cause Romney to gather up those ever-so-elusive independents. They see, on one hand, a guy whose moves are aligned and which gather real, measurable, effective strength. And on the other hand they see a flailing improviser and frankly, thug. Yeah, the playground insults are nice bumper stickers, but 2 days later they are used dogfood. And after seeing this pattern of “toss-it-out, smirk, then watch-it-fall flat” a mere 2-3 days later, 0bama’s cred is little more than an open running sore.
I’ve been kind of down tonight with the Hurricane Pumping BO up but, after that analysis I realize that Mitt has an answer for what Obama is doing and we will see it tomorrow. Most importantly, Mitts rsponse won’t be desperate or phony, either. It will simply be Mitt building on what he’s already said previously...a logical exension of an already well thought out campaign.
