Now, the perfect strategy, outstanding implementation and excellent follow through isn't working. Now how is that friggin' possible?, asks Romney. Here he is, doing everything right and he's losing. How can that be?
Romney missed the big picture. Most Republican voters see the nation at risk. We need urgent and large moves to save the country. Romney thinks we are in normal times. The voters he's appealing to don't think we're in normal times.
I have 2 main problems with Romney. One, the only cause Romney has worked for has been Romney. Romney's running for President for Romney, not for the country.
Two, and related, where was Romney? Where was he when Palin was being slimed in 2008? Where was Romney in fighting Porkulus? Where was Romney in defending the Tea Party from being slimed? He's asking us for our votes. Where was he, when we needed support? Where was Romney in fighting ObamaCare?
I'm here in Michigan and I'm voting Santorum. I may have a tiny part in putting a stake through the heart of the Romney campaign.
Romney doesn't like me, thought he didn't need me and he'll get nothing from me.
1)The Party found their perfect vessel (I love me and will do and say anything to win) and 2) the Party believes conservatives can be manipulated, over come and then urged to vote for the nominee or get 4 more years of Obama.
Romney was fueling the slime machine, and his Gay Brigades were at the controls, when Palin was being slimed in 2008, and on through the past three years.
Of course, Romney smiled for the cameras, and pretended all nice, but he and his hacks have been tearing at Palin since August 29, 2008.
Romney and his sycophants are responsible for Obama's election, and for that there is no forgiving or forgetting.
Doing the slimming. Like he has and is doing to Newt.
I think the main problem that Romney is having is that this election is SO important, and the prospect of Obama winning another 4 years is one of the most frightening ever in our country, that conservative voters are not willing to take any chances by allowing another moderate to carry the banner of our party and risk losing again. Plus Romney is so obviously a liberal, he really doesn’t pass the moderate test.
