Barack Obama’s aides and advisers are preparing to center the president’s reelection campaign on a ferocious personal assault on Mitt Romney’s character and business background, a strategy grounded in the early-stage expectation that the former Massachusetts governor is the likely GOP nominee.
The dramatic and unabashedly negative turn is the product of political reality. Obama remains personally popular, but pluralities in recent polling disapprove of his handling of his job, and Americans fear the country is on the wrong track. His aides are increasingly resigned to running for reelection in a glum nation. And so the candidate who ran on “hope” in 2008 has little choice four years later but to run a slashing, personal campaign aimed at disqualifying his likeliest opponent.

We are overdue for the next glacial advance.
If Global Warming is holding it back, then good for Global Warming.
BTW, that ice doesn't all pile up in Eur-Asia. It piles up right here in North America ~ 2 mile thick sheets! If GW fails and the ice comes again we do get rid of Massachusetts and Chicago right off the bat! Oh, yeah, all the Mexicans go home.
Give us a leader like Senator Jim Demint (SC); he’s not a RINO!

He just didn’t have the balls to get into the race!
Actually, I’d settle for Joe the Plumber!
I’d settle for an orange juice can over Mittens.
this thing is SO headed towards a three-man race in November
That story is from last year.
More coffee, people....
SO, Obama plans on doing to Romney EXACTLY what Romney has been doing to Santorum and Gingrich.
GOOD. Serves the dishonest, lying, back-stabbing POS right.
Obama doesn’t need to destroy Romney.
Just let him talk and he will destroy himself.
Obama plan: Destroy Romney
Simple as that.
....and if Romney is somehow the GOP Nominee, that is exactly what will happen. And that's fine with me. We'll just have to support Tea Party candidates for the House and Senate........and wait just 4 years instead of 8 under Mittens.
No, I’m glad they ran the story; just surprised.
this thing is SO headed towards a three-man race in November

Not sure who you’re thinking the three candidates will be in November, but, consider this: Since Denny Kucinich lost his Primary race and he will not be in the House and he is very pissed at the Congresswoman who defeated him in the Primary, we need to get Denny to run on a Third Party as the candidate to the “left” of Obama. He is angry that Gitmo is still open, that we are still in Afghanistan.....etc. How can we get a “KUCINICH FOR PRESIDENT” Third Party movement to pull votes away from Obozo?
