i.e. Romney. And that isn't going to work because you have to give people a reason to go to the polls. And Obama-lite isn't a reason.
Like it or not, the presidential slate is the major election draw. Romney's coattails are going to be threadbare. So all estimations of congressional & senate seats gained are going to have to be dialed back, way back. That's because hardly anyone is enthused about Romney. Hell, even the 'Gerald Ford wing' woulda' rather had Chris Christie. I'm afraid that we're going to have to work like hell just to hang onto the seats we have now if Romney is the nominee.
Nicely said. Why not buy your Hope and Change bumper sticker now.
