Mitt’s tricky and I do believe he wants to win. I mean he REALLY wants to win, so although I do not know what’s going through his mind right now, I am not quite at the panic stage yet.
My gut feeling is that he’s content at this stage to let Obama try (and fail) to defend his health care fiasco and his record of the last four years. His feeling, and he might be right, is that Obama simply has nothing to campaign on and letting him flail around trying does just as much (if not more) damage than anything Mitt could do.
Mitt has a lot of powerful attack options, but he needs to be careful about using them because they have shock value, and he would probably want to keep them in reserve for later on in the race.
I could be wrong, but that’s honestly the way I see it right now.
You're exactly right! Mitt doesn't have to win this election. He just has to make sure voters FIRE Obama. Obama does this fine all by himself. Why should Mitt beat a dead donkey?
I'll bet the real polls are Mitt is trouncing Obama's sorry ass right now!
What you say makes sense. Admittedly, I am looking for good news and hope.
Mitt is raising a lot of money. He IS sensible with money. he’ll use it when he needs to.
We’re paying attention and anxious, but most people are not. Mitt won’t waste $ in the summer.
He could be just a jerk, but you bring up a point, he wants it. McCain didn’t. Not as much. And we’re real sick of him still.
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.
