How about letting the guy get started, before turning on him?
Mitt had better have more to his campaign than merely attacking ‘bam’s economic disasters.
Unemployed and poor people want a government check; they’ll accept less in exchange for security. They think they’re victims deserving their fair share. Money’s just paper, and rich people like Romney have more than they could ever use.
Remember, they voted for Roosevelt bottom of the depression. Three times. Walter Williams pointed this out on Rush last Friday.
Mitt has to promise people a better future. He has to share a vision with them, one that will make them believe better things are possible.
Look, Obama is going to lose by a massive landslide. He will be lucky to take eight to twelve states. The Democrat Party will lose both the Senate and the house by big margins. The economy will only get worse, with Obamacare approved, no business large or small will hire any new workers without knowing the impact on its income and profit. Obama is the premier “Flim/Flam Man”, and....the majority of the American people know it.
Hang tight, Romney will use his surrogates to fight the good fight until he is the official POTUS nominee in August. Then all hell will break loose. For goodness sake, Romney may be the “billion dollar” candidate, not “dirt bag” America hater, Barack Hussein “Muslim Brotherhood Lover” Obama!!! ABO!!! Even a blind monkey, with one hand tied behind his back would beat this anti-American incompetent, Obama!!!

Jimmah Carter had Reagan, Obama has Romney, God help us all!!
I agree. A liberal "friend" of mine likes to point that out each time the discussion turns to the election and I get the sense he is clinging to that like a lifeline to sanity.
And, sadly, he and Walter Williams may just have a point. With 47% of the people on some form or another of government support, and with Obama desperately trying to increase that number every day, it's clear what Obama's strategy is. Get people hooked on federal dough, pay off the reliably leftist communities, suppress any and all attempts to rein in voter fraud, and hope that the numbers add up sufficiently to squeak by.
And it just may work.
The thing is, like him or not, nobody is going to accuse Mitt of being stupid, so he knows that, too. I can't believe that Mitt is sleepwalking through this the way McLame did. He has a plan. He's working a plan. Whether it will be an effective plan...
Time will tell.
Reagan's great advantage was that the more people heard him the more they liked him, largely because he actually had conservative convictions and stood by them. Romney is such a weak-sounding finger-in-the-wind snoozer of a candidate that it's hard to see him getting a similar surge. I wonder if the GOP will ever allow a strong candidate to be nominated in my lifetime.
I'd sure be cringing a lot less watching Gingrich speak instead of Romney.
I’d vote for you!

A friend said today she give one of her children (who she is totally devoted to) to see Gingrich debate BIden....Just then one of the boys came in covered with mud....we looked at him and at each other...Not sure if we were laughing at her giving THAT child or the thought of the debate......
Do you really think the majority of undecided likely voters are even paying attention yet? What was Reagan's numbers in July 1980?
So, just how long does it take him to get started? When is he going to take a position and offer some kind of plan at least an opener?
There are Obots and there are ...
Since when is asking what he is going to do and when “turning on him”?
You've got a point there; Reagan was tied or behind Carter at this point, as I understand it.
On the other hand, by this time in 1980 Reagan had already gotten off at least a half-dozen one-liners that hit Carter right between the eyes and put him off balance. Has Romney said even one memorable thing at the expense of Obama?
Romney is ahead of Obama because Obama is so much worse than Carter ever was. Romney's ahead of Obama without even trying.
Reagan didn't coast to the Convention in 1980.
Identity Crisis Romneys campaign has to move fast to define candidate before Obama does it first

Maybe you can go over there and see how long those people think it ought to take mittens to get started.
Ever hear the story about the new bull and the two old bulls? One of the old bulls charged the new one and one didn’t. The new bull thought one of the old bulls was a cow.
ME TOO.
Gingrich has a fire in his gut. He just needs a finisher as a partner since he has the attention span of a ferret.
I just think we’re a bit premature to be worried about our guy not making his move yet.
It’s not even to day 100 yet.
Thanks for putting that up.
Your post shows thoughtfulness and wisdom amongst the yahoos.
I’d like to see a blowout as much as anyone else.
I’d like to see Obama crushed electorally.
I’d like to see those who surround him totally repudiated.
I’d like to see the left run out of town.
But being a realist, I just don’t see this as a given.
This will be a close election, bitter, contested, divisive.
The end result, even if Romney wins, will not serve to unite the nation, but only to further divide it.
If Romney wins (and I believe he will, by a small margin of the popular vote and a razor-thin margin in the Electoral College), expect to see the ‘rats “Wisconsinize” — with the end goal of totally thwarting any Republican efforts to dismantle the ravages of Obammunism.
Romney’s victory (assuming he wins) will mark not the end, but the beginning of a bitter struggle by conservatives and traditionalists to either re-take the nation, or failing that, to take the first steps towards separating from the federals and establishing some kind of “second nation” in which they can do as much....
Reagan made his bones in the debate.
