Whatever you may think of him, he’s thoroughly trounced every competitor.

I guess you missed his run against Kennedy, the one in which he ran to Teddy's left.

Whatever you may think of any Kennedy (not sure which one you're referring to or what race - not that I'm saying your example isn't important) there's really no more formidable name in American politics.

So sure I'll presume what you say is true and grant that's an example, it certainly doesn't negate Romney's obvious skill (frankly I'd call it ruthlessness) at campaigning.

Romney may be a son of a b*tch, but he's our son of a b*tch.

We can oppose him next go around. Either figure a way to defeat him in the next 2 months, or start now figuring out (RIGHT NOW) how to replace him in 2016.

Remember the media will turn on Romney the moment the GOP convention is over. I think Romney will still win, but by 2016 he'll be a mess.

Then, we get a real president.
