If memory serves,Goodwin voted Obama and was very quickly disillusioned. I am starting to think this is gonna be 1980 again.
"Show me a good loser, and I'll show you a loser."
“He is instead determined to be the next president of the United States.”

If Romney beat’s the Left’s messiah and de-rails their radical agenda, they will harbor a resentment against him that will far exceed their insane hatred of GWB. Mitt and his family will need our support.
What nonsense. There was nothing new and nothing improved with Romney.Debate.01. He was always that good, it was just that nobody took the time to notice - at least among the media-types.
If Romney really wanted to win, he’d take the gloves off by playing Obama’s 2007 Katrina video 24 hours a day, and challenge Obama about it in the debates:
“In a video obtained exclusively by The Daily Caller, then-presidential candidate Barack Obama tells an audience of black ministers, including the Rev. Jeremiah Wright, that the U.S. government shortchanged Hurricane Katrina victims because of racism.”
U forgot the “projectile vomit alert.”
Wonder what kind of loser Obama will be!
I expect a full-on temper tantrum and RIOTING, DEATH AND DESTRUCTION.
I am beginning to think that the Colorado University study based on state-by-state economic factors is right. Romney will win because the country is fed up with the bleeding.
All the polls based on “registered voters” were flap-doodle.
What we are getting now is “likely voters” and even these may underestimate the enthusiasm factor.
Maybe Romney was intentionally lulling Obama into a state of complacency.
The author is full of chit....he is projecting the left bubble he lives in...
Mitt was not accepting defeat...
I personally believe that we are headed towards Romney winning with almost as many Electoral College votes as Obama did in 2008. Why? Because Americans—unfiltered by the mainstream media—are expressing strong disapproval of Obama, especially with Obama’s highly-questionable foreign policy and the anemic state of the “recovery” (if that’s the right term to use!) from the 2008 stock market crash.
Update from NE Ohio—went through Parma yesterday (Cleveland suburb where Slick Willy and Bruce Springsteen were here for BO the other days—next to no signs up compared to normal election year-counted 4-5 for BO ——and 5-6 for Mitt.
Went into inner city Cleveland today to my father’s family’s old church (Catholic)The priest old school maybe 70, delivered a very pointed homily/sermon—saying the 3 great public evils curreently facing Catholics (abortion, gay marriage, and the freedom of religion/insurance-health care issue)should be in the front of their minds—he said personally any one of those would disqualify a candidate from his vote-and one candidate (he “slipped” once and referred to that candidate as “the President”) was so egrigiously on the wrong side of all three as to make it a done deal. He also said several times to look past the agenda of the “secular media” Unreal!!!!
Of course today the local rag—the Cleveland Plain Dealer, endorsed Obama—I think they are totally out of step with the people here.
I don't know if that is true or not, but it sounds about right.
We're in a bad way. I shudder to think how it will go for us if obama is reelected.
But, if Romney and Ryan win and then do what they say they'll do, we are on the verge of an American renaissance. They will be this generation's and the next's Reagan and that's a legacy worth taking a risk on and vote for.
I underestimated Romney as well because he is not as conservative as I am. We all have our prejudices. Romney is tougher, smarter and more respectful of the Constitution than I ever thought. His willingness to take Obama and the media on at the Al Smith dinner was especially illuminating. His willingness to stand toe to toe with O at the debates was awesome. In fact, he convinced me so much that I sent him a significant contribution and put up a yard sign and a bumper sticker on the car. I would never even have considered this a year ago. Crap happens.
I have been saying for weeks now that Mitt is running a very tight, very well organized, very intelligently war-gamed campaign. He’s using the tools he has available as they are needed, he is not wasting his ammo, he is making good progress and he is precisely where he expects to be at this stage.
Does he have bigger guns? Yes, and when the time is right, he will use them.
