Good, the “Hair Club for Men” numbers are sinking.
I think it’s simpler - Romney is too slick for the base and too conservative for the RINOs/independents. He’s stuck in that unfortunate middle zone, and he’s not likely to gain any traction with either group.
Why is this surprising? The number one issue right now is Obamacare, and Romney is largely on the wrong side of the issue. And he’s kind of dropped off the radar.
Add that clear problem to his Mormon faith, his “loser” image from last year’s presidential election, and it doesn’t surprise me that he’s stuck below 50% favorable.
Republicans are pretty harsh critics right now. Palin can’t get above 50%, I’d be surprised if Huckabee was above 50% (that’s going to get me in trouble).
Splat. Thud.
He needs to get a real job.
Given Romney’s bad economic history, his history of fraud,
fake badges, and fake endorsements, coupled with his
attacks on Gov Palin to SCREW America for Obama,
Romney will continue to drop.
The Romney support is dropping like a rock when the electorate looks at what the man does once in office...such as with Health Care, and the assertions of his new positions are given the appropriate weighting for his lack of credible sincerity...
How much money did he spent last time?
Excessive ambition can ruin a talented man.
I feel sorry for his wife, Ann.
It would be better for Romney if just made TV appearances as a host for anything, except any RNC functions, though it’s not as if we care about that either.
I’d probably do a better job than Steele.
The man has entirely too much hair.
Who could possibly be advising him to waste his fortune on an entirely lost cause? Poor Ann ... soon to be a literal statement of fact.
Romney and Pawlenty truly delude themselves that they ever stand a chance at the presidency. WHAT are they thinking??
This is a surprising result from Public Policy Polling, the occasionally partisan group which nonetheless called the New Jersey and Virginia gubernatorial races accurately... Since April, when PPP started asking the question, Sarah Palin's favorable number has moved from 76 percent to 75 percent; Mike Huckabee's has moved from 67 percent to 65 percent. Romney... from 60 percent down to 48... One possible explanation, though, is how health care has dominated the national political debate since early summer. It the spring, Romney bounced as high as 67 percent... he's four months away from publishing a book on "American greatness"... Huckabee is leading the field in national and Iowa polls, and Palin clearly has the biggest following of any possible 2012 candidate.
Well maybe it has something to do with his being another phony, lying, RINO sell-out and traitor! Or it could be his hair.
From the article:
"Sarah Palins favorable number has moved from 76 percent to 75"
This RINOmney POS needs to go away now......and shut his f*****g mouth about Palin while he is at it.
Many R’s are mad as hell at the Rinos and ready to make them pay. The sentiments expressed by JimRob in yesterdays op-ed is a mindset shared by many people who now reject the Dem-lite candidates. I will not show up on election day 2012 if they nominate this ahole. Same goes for Huck, McCain, and Rudy.
