This may explain why Mitt's negatives match those of Hillary.

“Authenticity. It has become the buzzword of the 2008 U.S. presidential campaign, and the authenticity test appears to be shaping the race. “

Snort. The poll numbers say otherwise.

He or she must be consistent and appear to believe what they are he is saying, without the political artifice and calculation that savvy voters in Iowa and New Hampshire so easily reject.

Choose Fred or Duncan if you want authenticity. Choose Fred if you also want electability.

Authenticity and character have always been strong drivers of campaign success

Good God if that was true The Witch could not get nominated for dog catcher.

If Fred doesn't pick up some traction, then we could be looking at a McCain surge.

Say what you want about McCain, but he doesn't pretend to be something he isn't.

I'm not sure what McCain is, but whatever it is, its the genuine article.

With Romney, whatever it is... it's fake.

Americans want the real deal, but Clinton’s poll numbers are still high. Don’t know what to believe anymore.

Maybe an idiot....

but I reserve the word traitor for people like Murtha and Reid and Pelosi.

This also could explain why Huckabee has higher poll numbers. I don’t agree with much of what he’s saying, but I believe he is saying what he thinks.
