That’s really what sucks the most about 0bama. He is so bad, such an absolute, complete disaster and failure of a president that even the worst RINO contender looks great by comparison.
Romney has strengths?
73% of those polled want SOMEONE OTHER THAN Romney
Don’t let them foist another McCain or Dole on us
And what strength is that? King of the Flip Flops? The fact that, as Governor, he destroyed more jobs than he created? Or was it the fact that while governor MA had one of the worst job creation records in the Nation? (47th).
Sadly, Obama can do one thing. He can BS like an expert. He will hammer Romney on his faux jobs record. No. Romney has no strengths and will get KILLED in the general election.
Please stop trying to sell me on Romney. If I want Obama, I’ll vote Obama. Give me a Conservative please.
Exactly why is Romney supposedly an expert on the economy? Because he had some private sector success? Did that translate at all into his work in elected office? Exactly what wonderful things did Romney do for the MA economy aside from bolstering the abortion industry with $50 copays?
"As U.S. real output grew 13 percent between 2002 and 2006, Massachusetts trailed at 9 percent.
* Manufacturing employment fell 7 percent nationwide those years, but sank 14 percent under Romney, placing Massachusetts 48th among the states.
* Between fall 2003 and autumn 2006, U.S. job growth averaged 5.4 percent, nearly three times Massachusetts' anemic 1.9 percent pace.
* While 8 million Americans over age 16 found work between 2002 and 2006, the number of employed Massachusetts residents actually declined by 8,500 during those years.
"Massachusetts was the only state to have failed to post any gain in its pool of employed residents," professors Sum and McLaughlin concluded.
In an April 2003 meeting with the Massachusetts congressional delegation in Washington, Romney failed to endorse President Bush's $726 billion tax-cut proposal."

Mr. Romney "Disses" Amateur Radio In Televised Town Meeting
Plays to Myth’s strengths?
I guess they mean Myth’s amazing ability to lie with a straight face is especially effective on desperate people.
Or.....Donald Trump could be drafted to run.
Lambro is part of that Inside-the-Beltway Establishment that just can’t accept the fact that the people - just plane simple people as typified by the Tea Party Movement - are taking power away from these insiders who for decades have determined the agenda and picked the players.
To them, Romney is the great white hope to keep the banner of the Establishment flying high. They will be at the table in a Romney administration, and will see all their favorite programs and privileges continue - state dinners, special interviews, talk show gigs, amnesty for their domestic help, tax breaks, the whole benefits package.
To them, the thought that the country might actually be governed by the great unwashed multitudes outside their gated communities is unacceptable.
So it’s rally ‘round Romney, and keep the status quo.
