Keeping powder dry. SOP for the GOP. McCain still had quite a bit of powder left after he lost to Zero. Turns out he was saving it to savage a conservative primary challenger. Now that’s keeping it dry!

Others have said it: The time for firing your weapons is when you are under attack. By “keeping his powder dry,” Romney is allowing Zero to freeze him and demonize him. As Palin says, that bell can’t be unrung.

If Romney is being clever by not answering attacks, he’s being too clever by half. And he will lose.

My point was that no matter what Romney does it’s going to be portrayed as wrong by the media.

That’s fundamentally the problem that no one wants to address.

Obama attacks with specious charges, you answer and get painted as thin skinned, or that there is something to those charges.

One can ignore the media at their peril. While they are now buying ink by the quart rather than the barrel, they still have numbers. There are hundreds of media outlets all supporting Obunghole.

Obama has been outed as a homosexual, and it gets ignored.

I’d be willing to bet he’s still smoking cigarettes too, and nothing is said of it.

Imagine if Romney were to light up a Marlboro Red with a tumbler of single malt (mormonism not withstanding)?

Ok, Romney should blow 100 million in ads to answer crap that even the press isnt running with? Soooooo the people that are rattled (Rush and Co.) can “feel” better and not panic?

After you are done “firing your weapons”, then what? you have a 100 million hole in your funds, it’s September, and now you have to take matching funds. Congrats, general!

Obama wants Romney to SPEND. Spend millions going tit for tat. Deplete cash and change the subject.

Why not go along with that? It makes for better show, doesn’t it?
