I understand your points but don’t agree that it is any good. Romney has to present Big Ideas forcefully and waste minimal time responding to the Murderer! charges. Romney does methodical very well. Methodical doesn’t get you elected. He also wastes entirely too much time refuting stuff. It makes all the scurrility the center part of the campaign and with MSM lovingly repeating and expanding on the charges they become the only thing people hear. And all his demonstrated competence and business sense just shows what he can bring to the table, efficiently administered socialism. He defends Romneycare and shows no inclination to actually change anything, just run it all better. He says he will repeal Obamacare. He has also said more than once that there are good features of it that shouldn’t be thrown out. Frankly, I don’t think it much matters who wins this election in the long run, the managerial socialist or the more revolutionary one. We are still charging straight into socialism and the end result is the same. The ultimate socialist bloodshed will be the same. The only way I can see that Romney is better is with the thought that he is “our” socialist rather than “their socialist” as it is in European elections. Dynastic wars can be bloody and fervently fought but the outcome is irrelevant to the non ruling class.

Some day I hope to see another President who is a smart guy and not a head case. Looks like that won't be all that soon.
