That’s a problem but I just have a feeling that people don’t like being unemployed paying out the nose for everything. Even if cushioned some by governmental programs, it just has to affect those who are unemployed and their psyche and they used to be thriving just a few short years ago. They know something’s not right and that’s why I think Romney can tap into this anxiety and win with. MSM is the same - they have diminishing effects each election cycle but some effect is still there. But the worm may be turning.

Yep- good points.

I think people are looking for a mature, serious leader who is going to roll up his sleeves and get to work. Romney should just say he may not have the "coolness" factor that Obama has... but at the same time, he's not going to be obsessively studying NCAA hoops brackets when millions of people are out of work; he's not going to be yukking it up at fundraisers the day after a US ambassador was murdered. What Obama is doing isn't working, and Romney just wants to get people back to work so they can be proud again.
