I agree with you on everything you’ve said about Romney, except for your conclusion he’s not electable.
There’s a reason he’s leading:
He’s ruthless. He has gobs of driven supporters - almost as dedicated as moonies.
He has deep pockets. Very powerful interests on his side.
And he really, really wants to win this. Unlike McCain.
Romney will in my opinion, if he’s our nominee, trounce Obama.
If he’s nominated, and if he does indeed defeat Obama in the election (now just 208 days away) Romney will walk into a buzzsaw of MSM bias which has been waiting to resume their role as “opposition press”.
He’ll spend four years defending from media ferocity, and we can replace him with someone like Palin as our candidate in 2016.
I completely understand those who don’t yet want to go there, and tactically we all should focus on finding some way of causing a brokered convention to derail this juggernaut.
Still could happen...
But Romney’s must definitely (not) unelectable.
Disagree, CNN.
Romney’s support is very low, it’s purely the result of his running against opponents who could not match his resources, and he’ll not have anything like that advantage against Obama. Since he offers no choice against Obama, Obama will win this one.
