Romeny won’t be able to contrast with Obama on those issues, but it is obvious to me that the American electorate doesn’t have a clue about those issues anyway. If they did, Barack Hussein Obama would never have been elected president. The media focuses on nonsense all day.
I think the one thing that Americans do have a grasp of is that Obama is incompetent, and are ready to dump him. There is a feeling of malaise in the country, and it is time for a change. So I think that any of the GOP nominees can beat him, but it won’t be driven by any particular issue or set of issues.
Which is why we shouldn’t settle for Mitt. Now is the time to advance the pro-liberty, small-government agenda. That is certainly not Romney. Neither Gingrich or Santorum would be my first choice to carry that mantle, but they are what we are stuck with.
As for Romney vs. Obama - no brainer. If it was Clinton that was the incumbent, I would say “who cares, what’s the difference”. We could at least survive another four years of Clinton.
But Obama is a complete and total, absolute unmitigated disaster on every level. He is a dangerous reckless president. The country can’t survive another four years. He must be defeated, even if it’s by Romney.
Then, we can primary Romney in four years.
Did you add that line for some levity? There is no way Romney will get Primaried during a reelection. The GOPe will make sure of that.
