Yeah, I fell for some of the Romney as the candidate who can best win stuff because I figured that Romney would win over middle of the road voters in swing states.
But Romney got completely defined as an old rich and out of touch guy quickly. So the middle took the young, hip Obama. And I also think the middle has moved left on social issues.
Whoever we nominate in 2016, I want them to be under the age of 48. I think our only chance is to find a younger, articulate person that will appeal to a new generation. Certainly not Jeb.
I don’t see age as an issue. After all Dave Mustaine, lead singer of Megadeth was backing Santorum. Kid Rock obviously backed Romney but he would have backed who ever got the nomination.
