Friday Rant: C’mon Romney, Light My Fire

with 2 comments

By Tammie Brown (middleagedhousewife.wordpress.com)

So far the upcoming Presidential Election is leaving feeling very pessimistic about our future. President Obama is well underway, spreading his “Fair Share” message across the country. He is busy adroitly employing the time honored and very effective, liberal strategy of “divide and conquer”. Meanwhile, Mitt Romney’s campaign strategy still seems to be, “I’m not Obama”.  His bland and uninspiring style seem to suggest that since everyone knows how dangerous Obama is to everything America stands for, Romney doesn’t have to work so hard at getting elected.  Unfortunately this is not the case.  The conservative Republican base understands that Obama’s true but unstated objective is to turn this country into a Marxist style regime. However, many more Americans either don’t understand what that would mean for our individual way of life, or they just don’t care. Burdened with the hardships of our faltering economy they feel that it really doesn’t matter who’s in the White House, we are screwed either way.  These are the people that Romney needs to pull back into the polls.  He needs to let us in on his strategy for correcting the failures of the Obama presidency.  He needs to show us how his policies will protect our future, and he needs to get us excited about them.  Maybe Romney has too much class to stoop to class warfare, but his opponent does not.  It’s time for Romney to “man-up” and put the pressure on.  November is not that far away.

  1. I’m curious, have you heard Brit Hume’s analysis of the Romney strategy. Like the famous Foreman/Ali rope-a-dope the idea is to let Obama spend all his cash early, get all his negative attack out early (and study after study has shown that a negative attack has a short shelf life, after which people just don’t care about it) until he is out of excuses and out of money come August and then, like Ali wearing down foreman, utterly destroy him. (And given that Romney’s up by 5 points in the Rassmussen poll today, this plan seems to be working).
