I disagree. The polls right now are meaningless. In a campaign between a decent man, and a evil tyrant Romney stands a chance of winning. And if he runs on conservative principles and articultates them forcefully, he wins in a landslide. Because the truth is on our side. Failure and a historyt of incompetence is on the side of the clinton’s.
The polls are not meaningless. For one thing, they allow us to see trends. Those who refuse to see the problems with a Mitt candidacy simply will not face the facts: the trend line shows that over the course of a full year, as the public has been more and more exposed to him, his unfavorables have risen. As have the number of people who say they absolutely will not vote for him.
One has to have a compelling argument that this phenomenon will suddenly reverse itself. I have yet to hear it. If he changes what he has been saying for the past year, he is going to be even more vulnerable on the charges of flipflopping and inauthenticity.
A lot of people don’t like him. It’s a shame so many FReepers cannot acknowledge reality.
