Per Cincinatus’ Wife:
Nov 14, 2011: Special report: The golden age of opposition research Original source – Reuters .....Overall, Romney is thought to have the best oppo team in this Republican primary, with Yost as chief of research and Matt Rhoades, another veteran of RNC opposition research, as campaign manager. No one in the Romney organization would comment.
*****************
Mitt Romney leads the Drudge primary.....”Frustrated rivals think they know the secret: a low-profile, hard-driving Republican operative named Matt Rhoades, who is Romney’s campaign manager. Rhoades met Drudge, as POLITICO Editor-in-Chief John F. Harris and co-author Mark Halperin reported in their book “The Way to Win: Taking the White House in 2008,” when he became research director of the Republican National Committee and was introduced by his predecessor on a special trip to Miami. Rhoades has since been seen as a pipeline to the reclusive Drudge, who now has two veteran Washington reporters working on the site as well.”....
“It’s no secret that Matt Drudge has a high-level friend inside the Romney camp, but his favoritism puts him noticeably out of step with other conservative media,” said an aide to one of Romney’s Republican rivals. “Sometimes it’s bias by exclusion, like when conservatives universally slam Romney for his RomneyCare speech and Drudge gives him a pass.”........[and there is more] Source

DRUDGE WORKS FOR ROMNEY

I’ve always believed Myth can beat Obama. The problem is that there’s not much difference between them.
There is very little separation between Romney and Obama so if Romney gets the nod then the Lame Stream Media will use this lack of separation to make the claim that Obama should go ahead and get reelected.
Moderate Republican = Democrat. Seriously; there is no difference.
Only a shock if you aren’t observing this race carefully. Romney has always been the one with the potential to beat Obama.
Nope, Im not buying it either, this is a hopenchange 2.0 psyop to get us used to Romney..
Obama got a nudge up in the polls the other day because of Iraq war ending.His bounce is gone already.ANYBODY would beat Obama ( if he does not use voter ID fraud and ACORN again and cheat) Romney will not be the nominee.Santorum will be.

Ted Kennedy Prepared Barack Obama’s Attack Ads
http://www.redstate.com/erick/2011/12/29/ted-kennedy-prepared-barack-obamas-attack-ads/
In 1994, Ted Kennedy ran against Mitt Romney. Romney ran on his jobs record in the private sector. Sound familiar?
Well, get ready for Barack Obama’s ad campaign against Mitt Romney.
Ted Kennedy already produced the ads and I’ve got them.
We’re going to hear about Bain Capital taking federal bailout money. We’ll hear the tales of woe from people Mitt Romney ordered laid off.
Yes, you can say we’ll hear all the same stuff about Barack Obama, but every poll shows voters still do not connect Barack Obama to his policies.
Policies are esoteric things. The people in these ads, however, connect their firings to Mitt Romney.
The ads are below the fold. If you don’t see them here, you’ll see them on the campaign trail once Romney is the nominee.
Oh, and in addition to campaign ads featuring every person every laid off on orders from Mitt Romney, you’ll also get to see his house in Utah, his stone cottage, and his Belmont home.
The closest equivalent to Campaign 2012 with Barack Obama running against Mitt Romney won’t be found in the recent era. You’ll have to go all the way back to France, 1793, and the campaign of Robespierre against Marie Antoinette.
Talk about a bloody political season.

I’m not sure that poll is so profound. I think Sponge Bob Square Pants would poll higher than Obama right now.
With all due respect to your thread and Rassmussen.....these results almost a year out are probably worth a warm bucket of spit.
Some slogans for the Romney campaign.
Vote for Romney. No sense looking for yet more ‘change’. It’s hopeless.
Romney in 2012. I’m not so bad. At least I’m not Ron Paul or Barak Obama.
Romney in 2012, killing future voters before they’re born.
Romney in 2012. It’s easy on the tongue.
Romney, Obama, whatever.
Romney. I photograph well.
Romney. It’s my turn, dammit.
Obama zero, Romney zero.
Romney 45 Obama 39... MSM and liberals everywhere win either way. We lose either way.
