Romney’s electability is overblown

William A. Jacobson

quote:

Earlier in the fall when Democrats gently started going negative on Romney, Romney’s numbers dropped, but then the Democrats pulled back. There is every reason to believe that once the Kennedy-like attacks on Romney start in earnest, his electability will be in doubt.

Comment:

Freakin' A.   The media and the Democrats, which are practically one and the same, want Romney.    The media will turn on him on a dime.    Nobody should vote for the guy unless he is right on the issues.

Now, Ann Coulter has one issue which she says is a deal maker--- Romney supports E-verify.

Coulter's take on Romney is that he won a blue state and that is a plus.  The electability issue is important, she says, because that is the only way to get rid of Obamacare.  The illegal immigration issue will permanently change the electorate.  That's the second reason.

Also, with respect to my earlier post on the fall of the Roman Empire, my thinking is adjusting a bit on the personal character issue.  That doesn't look good for Gingrich.   I get a small inkling here of a personality cult around Gingrich.  But it is nothing like Obama becoming "the Messiah" in 2008.

I remain undecided.  Texas' primary in March.  Lots of time.
