Rush may have had it right a year ago when he said the GOP-e was convinced Obama can't be beaten and so were going to focus on Congress this election. Therefore, their only job was to nominate a presidential candidate who will raise money for the GOP but otherwise get out of the way and won't offend the donors too much.
Their man, Romney, has given huge chunks of the money he's raised to the GOP which is why Obama is outspending him everywhere you look, including Ohio. I think they see their plan unfolding exactly how they designed it.
Rush is a pretty smart guy. I wouldn’t be surprised that’s what is going on, but you’d think they’d at least pick a fighter to go up against Obama on the outside chance that he might just score a knockout.
But, it was “Mitt’s turn”, I guess.
Maybe he’ll start fighting and prove us all wrong. Or maybe he has genius managers who will be proven right that kid gloves is the way to win this thing.
Who knows?
