bingo. but hey, 0bama and Mitt are indistinguishable, right? I read it here. might as well concede and give barky 4 more.
That’s what an alarming number of people seem to be saying.
In the absolute worst case (a ridiculously improbable situation), Romney is no better than Obama. It’s impossible for him to be worse. A more realistic situation is that Romney governs like the moderate he really is, which would be a MASSIVE improvement over what we have.
What I don’t understand is the prevalence of stage one thinking around there. I hear things like “the Republicans are just driving the car off the cliff at 20 MPH instead of 100 MPH.” Well, suppose that’s true. If it’s either driving off at 100 or driving off at 20 (reverse is simply not an option right now) then why would anybody in their right mind not pick the better of the two options?
