[Political Junkie Too]

I started to write the same thing, but backed off.

Nixon ended the Vietnam War and opened trade with China, but Carter squandered the peace dividend and got hit with the oil embargo. Then Carter turned his attention towards Iran and gave us Khomeini.

Here's two examples of the biggest failures during Romney's campaign to unseat Obama:

1. He should have gone after black voters right from the start. It would have been easy to show just how bad things were back then and suppress the black vote. Worst case, we'd be two years ahead in noting how bad Obama's been for blacks.

2. Take a look at this Washington Free Beacon piece. Why couldn't Romney or the GOP have come up with the Obama golf story video and played it again and again? Obama Will Not Rest, As Soon As He's Done With Golf

Romney could have done a series of spots from secret locations throughout Cook County showing failing infrastructure, closed businesses (I know one that had an Obama 2008 poster in the window) and corruption/tax/regulation stories. The GOP needs to take the gloves off and stop believing the media. They're liberals, they're hacks and they lie, lie, lie.
