Well, technically, the campaign began 5 years ago when we first began voting down Romney in Republican straw polls and the like.

In some quarters (actually all quarters) the man is no more popular now than he was then.

Obama, though, has really screwed up, hence the question of why are Republicans running their weakest candidate against Obama.

You’re right. Five years voting against Romney and then we get him anyway. Pretty sad.

But there it is. We should have spent more of that five years with a bitter unity effort including building a Tea Party Convention to choose a single candidate to run against the establishment R single candidate.
