Romney should line up his entire staff one by one and shoot them out of a cannon.

Posted by David (aka David) Mar 13 '12, 19:33

How is he losing like this? As pessimistic as I was about his chances in the south, even I am surprised by the compounding failures.

Responses:

because at the end of the day, he still wins more delegates than any of his opponents? -- nm - znufrii Mar 13, 20:11 1
- And the Yankees will win more than the Astros. That doesn't guarantee them anything worthwhile. -- nm - David Mar 13, 20:13
People don't like him, and it has nothing to do with his staff. -- nm - mara Mar 13, 19:39 26
- he's awkward. -- nm - loosi Mar 13, 20:00
- And that's the problem, they're still trying to get people to like him... - Stephen Mar 13, 19:52 8
  - I keep saying he should drop the common folk stuff and admit he is rich -- nm - amoxy Mar 13, 20:23
  - Do what Trump does, but in earnest, not as a pompous showboater. It should be possible. - Beryllium Mar 13, 19:56 6
    - He was a stupid man, with stupid hair. - loosi's mom Mar 13, 20:01 5

        This is what I thought last time, but I do think it works better as an si. -- nm - Beryllium Mar 13, 20:06 2
        
        Sure, if the person s.i.'ing is different than the person who originally posted it... -- nm - Stephen Mar 13, 20:15 1
        
        Fair point. -- nm - Beryllium Mar 13, 20:15
        
        I don't give a shit. It gives me enough laughs for a decade. -- nm - loosi Mar 13, 20:04
- People didn't like the first Bush. A competent staff maximizes strengths and hides weaknesses. - David Mar 13, 19:41 15
  - The first bush proved he was at least competent, didn't he? - Beryllium Mar 13, 19:48 12
    - As a CIA head, yes. As a president, he was an abomination. -- nm - David Mar 13, 20:07 8
      - Oh, I don't disagree. I'm just talking pre-presidency. -- nm - Beryllium Mar 13, 20:15
      - he was good at foreign policy. I wish he and Junior would have talked. apparently they loathe each other. -- nm - loosi Mar 13, 20:09 5
        
        I'm going to agree to disagree on that first part. -- nm - David Mar 13, 20:12 4
        
        Dad should have kept going in Iraq when we had a reason too. Son should have stayed the fuck out when we had no reason too - Bacon Mar 13, 20:18 3
        
        Dad listened to his military advisors... - Stephen Mar 13, 20:22 2
        
        No read my lips sunk him. I am just saying in hindsight both screwed up in Iraq - Bacon Mar 13, 20:29
        
        among which, ironically, was Cheney. -- nm - Reagen Mar 13, 20:23
      - Read My Lips was his biggest mistake. That anti Bush ad was made by him to run against him -- nm - Bacon Mar 13, 20:08
    - big time. He had one of the best resumes a presidential candidate could possibly have. -- nm - loosi Mar 13, 20:03 2
      - The Putin Special, as I suggested earlier today. But I was very young at the time, so the specifics are vague. -- nm - Beryllium Mar 13, 20:05 1
        
        Congressman, ambassador to China, director of the CIA, VP under one of the most popular president of the 20th century. -- nm - loosi Mar 13, 20:07
  - Bush Sr. was losing to *Dukakis* until Lee Atwater found Willie Horton -- nm - pixitude Mar 13, 19:47 1
    - This sounds like ... did I hear it correctly? "David is right"? -- nm - Beryllium Mar 13, 19:49
i was sure the cheesy grits would seal the deal -- nm - pixitude Mar 13, 19:36 1
- If only he'd mentioned having hash browns scattered smothered and covered. -- nm - Qale Mar 13, 19:47
honestly I am not sure it is their fault. He is Mormon and from Massachusetts. Two opposite but damning facts. -- nm - loosi Mar 13, 19:34
the pundits this morning were saying that if he finishes 2nd in these southern states they should consider it a huge win for him. -- nm - Remlik Mar 13, 19:34 2
- he's going to finish 3rd in both -- nm - pixitude Mar 13, 19:35 1
  - ouch -- nm - Remlik Mar 13, 19:36
