Still waiting on Romney to start his campaign ~ anybody seen him lately?
good point.
he did fine in debates but only a fraction of the people he needed to reach ever watch debates
he campaigned very effectively (alas) against a couple of the other R primary candidates, indeed it was that performance that gave me hope maybe he could win the general election (he was not my first choice)
all in all, Romney was credible whereas McCain just “enabled” O by continuously legitimizing or enabling him or telling us we didn’t have to be afraid of him. Alas, we did.
If the R party can’t nominate candidates who will run real election campaigns, it is most discouraging. They have to get up there and swing at the ball...
otherwise, they will keep losing...
I just can’t fathom why Romney/Ryan (and the rest of the R party apparatus and politicos and spokespeople) didn’t get out there and really campaign a whole lot more. (The polls were telling them they needed to do it, too...)
