You are the one spinning. Romney spent tens of millions of dollars in two states that he should have won easily and he did not. If he loses MI, he will be out.
Both Iowa and NH are aberations in the political primary process. Romney did get exposure in this process, something he didn’t have before. He didn’t have the name recognition that some of the others had. He also leads the field. You can take from this what you want but Romney is not going away!
His message is also getting out to the public. He will be very strong in future debates also.
There is more to all of this than just wishing Romney would lose.
