"They want us to think that Gov. Romney is the one they “fear” so that we’ll nominate him as the “strongest” candidate against Mr. Obama."

Yeah, I'm still not following your logic here. You say they "want" us to nominate Romney, so to precipitate that nomination they remind people that Romney is the guy who inspired them to pass Obamacare - a profoundly unpopular piece of legislation.

That makes no sense.

Your confusion results because you are an intelligent
FReeper.

the DNC/OBAMA use Romney two ways, as it helps them
at the time — in inconsistent ways.

YOU expect them to be consistent — because you are.

If they don't attack him at all, many will see that he is their true choice in 2012. Softball jabs about RomneyCare pale in comparison to the vitriol against the Tea Party and it's adherents. They've attacked Governor Sarah Palin more than Dubya, Reagan, Nixon, Goldwater, Lincoln, Harding, Newt, Rush, Beck and Quayle combined, every day of the week, since the day she was picked as the VP nominee. That has to tell you something.
