So says you.

I say that Romney will be the Republican nomination, and you’ll have to make a choice: Mitt or Hillary.

If I were practicing a scorched earth policy, I'd agree with you...

Pointing out the man's failure to be what he presents is just good politics.

Romney has name-recognition?

Since the beginning of the year, he has polled the lowest in the name-recognition category except for Huckabee.

Thompson, Giuliani, and McCain have the highest name recognition, and it hasn’t done them a bit of good.

“Romney has name-recognition?”

Yes. In the select states he has saturated with ads, he does. The problem, which he is about to discover, is that this saturation bombing will win you polls but not elections. I promise not to say “I told you so” on January 4 when you get the first tutorial on this principle.

False dichotomy.

Then you and Petronski have something in common: a complete inability to recognize reality. Don't worry though... Reality will set in for you guys on Jan. 3rd, 8th, 15th, and 19th.

Romney has absolutely no consistency whatsoever, what are we to believe ? Why do you believe him ?

“Since the beginning of the year, he has polled the lowest in the name-recognition”

Don’t forget...the highest core negatives as well. 47% say there is no chance they will vote for him, the same as Hillary.

If your wild-ass guess is true, the GOP is screwed.

"Why do you believe him ?"

--------------------------------------------------------

Because he has lived the life that the other candidates only pay lip-service to.

"A man not honorable in his marital relations is not usually honorable in any other."--Harry Truman

Romney's success in his personal life tells me all I need to know about his character and values.

His success in his professional life tells me what I need to know about his ability to lead.

Well, since you're citing Rasmussen, then I might as well too:

Election 2008: Clinton vs. Giuliani & Romney One Point Apart: Clinton and Giuliani, Clinton and Romney Saturday, December 22, 2007

In a general election match-up, both Rudy Giuliani and Mitt Romney find themselves in a toss-up with Hillary Clinton. The latest Rasmussen Reports national telephone shows Giuliani with a statistically insignificant 45% to 44% advantage over Clinton. Romney enjoys the same margin, nominally leads Clinton 44% to 43%.

Both Republicans have a decided advantage with male voters. Clinton has the advantage with female voters (see crosstabs).

Clinton and Giuliani have been trading generally insignificant leads for months. In the last four polls, Clinton led twice, Giuliani led twice. Earlier in December, it was Clinton by three. Both candidates have been within four points of the 45% mark in nine consecutive surveys (see history of this match-up).

However, while Giuliani has been competitive with the Democratic frontrunner all year, the current poll represents the best performance yet for Romney.

Jimmy Carter has been happily, loyally married to Rosalyn for 61 years...since Truman actually WAS president.

Great, so that covers the personal life litmus test. Now address the professional life test, and apply it to Carter...specifically, Carter's business acumen and accomplishments.

Carter didn’t inherit a gold-plated Rolodex. Ah, but Carter DID serve in the military.

No, Carter inherited a large peanut farm and managed to mutilate his finger while trying to run it.

Which only proves that military service isn't a legitimate test to predict the success of a President.

Carter’s more trustworthy than Willard.
