...look at the approval ratings that John McCain had at this point in the campaign, 53 percent; George W. Bush and Bob Dole, 49 percent. Again, Mitt Romney down at 34 percent. If that doesn't tell the story, then nothing will. Center-right voters have looked at Mitt Romney and have seen right through his snake oil salesman grin. He's a fraud, and voters know it.
How on earth can a Republican challenger beat an incumbent Democrat president with that sort of lackluster support? Frankly, I don't think he can. He's incapable of generating enthusiasm, and if he's relying on the fear vote to put him over the top, then he's got a lot to worry about with people like me, who would rather vote for Mickey Mouse.

He's really in trouble here in the South. You know he came in third in both Mississippi and Alabama.
Your state, Texas hasn't voted, but even if he pulls out a win against dead broke Newt Gingrich, that's no guarantee he can carry Texas against the Marxist, without conservatives coming out in massive numbers to vote for him and I don't think y'all will.
