It’s a dirty job but somebody’s gotta do it; where do I sign up?
Seriously, Romney’s campaign strategy has played out beautifully. He managed to side-step 0bama’s propaganda organs in the media. He seized the momentum by steamrolling an unprepared 0bama in the first debate. And now, he’s not going to lose. His campaign is on a roll and on the offensive everywhere, going into states like Pennsylvania. I think it’s already over in Ohio and therefore the election is over. Both candidates know it.
The media looked at the scoreboard this morning, and now they know it too.
As I had to say over and over to my “red-meat” buddy last night, Romney had one MAJOR need: that the “undecided” and the press be unable to get a claim of “war-monger” to stick today. Mission accomplished, and meanwhile Romney’s strength, the economy, was continually discussed.
Instead of Romney bringing up Libya, etc., the Dinosaur Media is spending all day today bringing up that, and similar opportunities Mitt had to attack Obama, but refrained from doing. This is using -bama’s strength against him.
Political Jiujitsu.
Brilliant.
The press, and certainly 0bama, had prepared text available to respond to Romney attacks. All that time and thought went for naught, and they are left to talk about what he could have said! Meanwhile, -bama is left spluttering and wondering about the whole debacle, and the “undecided voters” were left able to choose Romney in an atmosphere of peace instead of worry. Oh - a side effect: if Obama now pulls a “wag-the-dog” attack, it will absolutely DESTROY him, instead of having a chance of helping him.
LOL
Political Jiujitsu.
These three debates of Romney (+Ryan) will be studied by political analysts and campaign advisers for decades to come.
Look for the last-gasp effort to be abortion/ Mediscare/ queer marriage redux by -bama.
