I wouldn’t go that far:) But he sounds better than I remember him before..
Actually- Mitt’s ok...my distrust of him is basically that I see him as strictly managerial, economy guy. I don’t get a sense that he understands conservative Republicans- and I don’t mean only pro-life. I don’t think he “gets” illegal immigration, for example..
That's my problem with him. He's been in a world where your competitors aren't out to cut your head off, stone your daughter to death, rape your wife, and disembowel your children.
I think his lack of military service has not given him that gut understanding that Bush had on 9/11 "I'm a loving guy but I have a job to do." and "crushing response, inflict pain"
This is my concern about the guy who doesn't understand the dark side of life where your hair gets mussed and your fingernails are crusted with blood, guts and dirt.
But right now he is looking like the most likely bet in a field where everyone has a major drawback.
