And who exactly was the right man for the job?

Would it have been the conservative Jesus?

Or perhaps the liberal Jesus?

If you read the article, you’ll discover that the complaint against Romney was that he was timid. He didn’t engage on Benghazi, in particular. He backed off of a budget discussion. He wouldn’t attack Obamacare. And he wouldn’t confront conservatives on Hispanics.

So, timid, tepid, lukewarm, awol.

Pick a fighter of a candidate, and they would have at least engaged. I’d suggest any of the others: Perry, Gingrich, Bachman....all were fighters.
