Sez the Boston Globe.
Well what can Humble Elias say?
The primary season is a full year away and "Brand Romney" has still plenty of time to change up their plans and start abjectly groveling before the shock troops of Republican Conservatism.
Remember this is the Former Viceroy of Massachusetts we are talking about, even if the Tea Partei and he are estranged that doesn't mean he can stand up to any pressure from the right when push comes to shove.
Look at the hapless and truckling way he tried to straddle and bury the religious issue in campaign 2008 for good instruction as to how Mitt will behave towards the TP going forward.
The Tea Partei may be on the march in NH, but Romney didn't do too well there in 2008, I wonder if this means he has a different primary campaign in mind one that doesn't revolve around prevailing in the Granite State?
Besides, in some ways politically, the year is off to a good start for Romney, Palin has done naught but pour rhetorical kerosene over herself and strike matches, the rest of the potential GOP field are dubious and obscure, saying and doing nothing is yielding results for Brand Romney.
Still the above article does contain this delightful howler which describes Romney as"a one-time moderate from Massachusetts."
Indeed Willard has never been much of a moderate or a conservative for that fact, he is chiefly out on the hustings on behalf of what is good for Romney first last and always. This is why his makes such a poor uptight, overprogrammed and dismal impression on voters he believes in nothing more important than his own ambitions.
Some politicians can make that work, but Mitt's sheer ego and amateurism always make a hash of it in the end...Likely it will be the same next year.
Still would like to know how well his "protege" Scott Brown is polling in New Hampshire?
