ok, thanks.
Your concern troll has been noted.
There needs to be a three prong attack! Attack the Obama, his policies and the leftist media. In other words, stick a fork in them!
Think about this, McCain picks Palin and loses (no fault of Palin) and Romney picks Ryan, and is literally snatching defeat from the jaws of victory,by doing absolutely nothing to win?
The sign I am looking for, and hoping for, is that one of the "surprises" R2 makes, is to get Palin and the TP fired up to act? If Palin endorses late in the game, it would solidify millions of voters to act/move.
Waiting and wondering...
Thoughts?
Romney needs to lose the yes men and listen to the conservatives who don’t like him. He’ll be a better candidate if he does. This race shouldn’t be close.
Conservatism works when tried.
Mitt has to take the gloves off (like he did to his Republican opponents). I don’t think this will cost him any votes from independents. They already know the country’s in deep trouble and would probably welcome some aggressive tactics and bold moves.
Mindlessly believe massively biases media polls, ignore the serious polls, get threads like this one.
Does anyone REALLY believe a north eastern liberal like Romney will do anything as President but delay the inevitable ?
They ALL know their socialist experiment will collapse the economy.
Obama/Soetoro lusts to make it happen ASAP
Romney can do nothing to stop it, only delay it by tweaking socialist “free” programs not devolving them all to the States as the Constitution requires.
So, pick your poison.
The first debate will show how he has decided to drive for the prize. If he doesn’t leverage all the ammo that has been handed to him during the first debate we can give him more advice. He seems to be setting the stage with some pre-debate comments 9Obama tends to say things that aren’t true, etc.) and he might surprise a bunch of us. I also can’t wait to see Ryan face off with Biden - “Joe, let’s call this thing off; I feel a bit guilty engaging in a battle of wits with an unarmed opponent...”
Ryan is merely a GOP-E bromide for the tea party to ensure their vote. All the usual suspects of liberal-moderate republicans are whispering in Mitt’s willing ear to reach out to (disaffected) liberals. They are his people.
Say... has anyone seen both Romney and McCain together at the same time any place live? Hmmm... more than coincidence?
Obama has run a personally negative campaign on Romney coloring him as a tax evader with offshore accounts, greedy, and uncaring about people. Basically Obama has no record to run on and the surprising thing is he has temporarily with the help of the MSM changed this from a referendum on a dismally performing incumbent to a choice between two personalities.Romney needs to go negative by saturating the airwaves that the economy is abysmal and at the fail point because of one person - Obama and here are the reasons why he has brought it to the fail point. He needs to stay with that message so Obama cannot foist this thing back to Bush. Eventually it will sink in.
They (We) don't call the GOP "...the stupid party..." for no reason.
Sure, it could happen again, owing mostly to the GOP suicidal desire to appease the middle, the moderates.
Check out a movie ( "The Man In the Grey Flannel Suit," starring Gary Cooper.) to see how GOP's desire to conform became a disasterous, albeit well-accepted, obsession.
It’s not turnout models that made Ras change his sample, its PARTY AFFILIATION that has changed now from 2008.
More people identify themselves as Republican.
And what is the current Rasmussen poll showing in VA?
The problem is the base, us, see this as an existential contest requiring an ideologically clear campaign. Romney and, to a lesser extent, Ryan see the issue as competence requiring a technocratic solution. We’re just not going to get a fire-breathing “death to the enemies of freedom” -style message from Romney. Nevertheless, we need to first get Obama out so we can live to fight the good fight another day; Romney is the best weapon at hand.
I think if it was today Romney would win in a landslide, as he will on Nov. 6th. You are doing precisely what the media wants you to do.. PANIC! Stop drinking their KOOL-AID.
while I may personally have preferred a more aggressive campaign than Romney is running... this campaign is NOTHING like McLame’s
Romney is staking everything on Obama disqualifing himself, and simply presenting himself as an acceptable alternative.
In a month and a half we’ll know if the strategy worked.
Mitt sit down with Palin and have a meeting of the mind. agree to her having a meaningful cabinet position and then turn her loose. let her barnstorm where she thinks it’s needed. Like an independent campaign and yes that would entail the risk of limiting yourself to one term. At least that way would get you one term.
Please cease those activities Republicans are so good at, IE snatching defeat from the jaws of victory.
Even better, stay home, watch TV, tell the Democrats to pound sand when it comes to debates and let Palin and Ryan do the campaigning.
Mitt needs to run like he did against Gingrich.
He will not be able to just slide into the Presidency.
That said, if the polls are truely oversampled with Democrats and in fact if he is 8 points up at this time he may think he can coast.
Romney doesn’t find the Obama regime anywhere near offensive enough to do battle with it. He really isn’t concerned with issues of vital importance to conservatives.
