This is a poor attempt at strategerizing. Romney cannot out-emotionalize Obama. Trying to beat the Democrats at their own game is unwise, especially for someone as lacking in apparent sincerity as Romney.
What he needs to do is explain what Republican ideology and ideas are and why they're better than the Democrats'. He needs to get into the kind of lengthy explanations Clinton did at the DNC. I haven't heard the Romney campaign talk AT ALL about the differences between Republicans and Democrats. How in the heck is he going to help Congress members get elected if he doesn't make an argument for the party as a whole? This constant "I'll do the job better than Obama" drumbeat is falling on deaf ears and even if it succeeded, it does nothing to help Republican Congress members.
Your post is excellent. “I’ll do it better than Obama” just doesn’t mean anything if one doesn’t know what it is Romney will do to be better than Hussein.
He started today talking about big government Obama at least.
