Romney Not Going to Win the Election

SuperObamaWorldOk, all you Romney supporters bouncing around out there.  It’s time to face some facts.  Romney will NOT win this election.  I didn’t way he CAN’T, I said he WON’T.  It is, of course, possible.  All things are possible.  The problem is that he won’t pull it off. 

Here’s why.  Romney is a business man.  He’s good at business.  He’s also a politician.  He’s been pretty successful at that too.  But Obama.  Oooooo-bama!  HE is a CAMPAIGNER.  That man could out-campaign damned near anyone on the planet.  Add to that the fact that there is a lot of racial motivation at play, and as a black man, he automatically gets the vast majority of the black vote as well as a large percentage of the overall minority vote before he even opens his mouth……

How is Romney going to compete?  The only possible answer to that is poorly.  Romney is not as smooth as Obama.  He doesn’t have automatic drawing power simply because of the color of his skin.  He’s not the incumbent (incumbents nearly always have the advantage – better the evil we know than the evil we don’t know, right?).  And he’s not preaching the right messages.  He still is talking about Obamacare far too much.  His message needs to be “get our troops home” and “fix the economy”.  Period.  Plain and simple.   That’s not what he’s saying, though.  That’s not what he believes.  It’s not what he’ll do.  And it’s going to cost him this election.
