“He needs to look like Ronald Reagan.”
Or, paraphrase a great line from Richard Nixon.
Nixon in 1968: “I say that when respect for the United States — respect for the United States has fallen all over the world — but when is has fallen so low, that a fourth-rate military power will hijack an American naval vessel in international waters, then it is time for new leadership for the American people.”
Romney could have said: “I say that when respect for the United States — respect for the United States has fallen all over the world — but when is has fallen so low, that a terrorist group in a fourth-rate country will assassinate our ambassador and his staff, then it is time for new leadership for the American people.”
That’s excellent!
