We are all supposed to recognize the futility in Mitt Romney's disastrous bid to replace Barack Obama as commander in chief.
But where is the brilliance in the Obama campaign?
The past three weeks have each been, successively, Romney's worst. Aside from firing without aim about foreign policy—something a challenger to President Obama shoulldn't even have the gall to do—and then pointing out that 47% of Americans don't pay taxes (hate speech, really), Romney has generally shown that he is unfit for the Oval Office.
Romney, in fact, is running one of the worst campaigns a politician has ever run.
Or so say the mainstream media.
Republicans grade their candidates on a tough curve, but the Left and their media allies will never assign anything less than a failure to anyone who challenges them.
Meanwhile, they ignore the utterly disappointing and ridiculous campaign waged by Obama to keep his job.
First, the sitting president of the United States has barely been able to keep up with his challenger in fundraising. Obama outpaced Romney in August, breaking a three-month streak for GOP nominee. The much-ballyhooed billion-dollar campaign has failed to materialize, and the RNC has ten times the amount of cash on hand as its Democratic counterpart.
Second, Obama won almost ten million more votes than his opponent in 2008. That's a huge advantage that has somehow evaporated. Right now the polls show a dead heat. So the man of Hope and Change, who would "restore the American dream" has managed to lose the confidence of ten million Americans. That's almost as many jobs as he's lost.
Nevertheless, we are supposed to believe that "Forward" is a well-oiled machine firing on all cylinders....

Thanks for spurring my thinking this morning.
Thank you for making my point.
I hope you understand that I’m not “against” you but rather feel that third parties are a distraction this cycle. You obviously don’t agree, so we will just agree to disagree on that.
“I’ve seen many commercials on USA and TNT for Obama - apparently they are Obama supporters since I can’t recall seeing Romney commercials.”
I don’t know about that. If Romney bought time, they would probably run his ads. I’m really wondering why Brack is spreading the net so wide? It seems like a lot of money for not so much impact, IMHO.
McCain ran a good campaign in 2008.
Unfortunately, he was campaigning for his opponent.
Neah. I think Sen. Dole still holds the title. McCain is second, Romney, third.
And you mine. You do not understand the concept of money.
