If they didn't in 2008 when you had Hillary and Obama, I don't see any drama to mine this time around

there was no nomination fight; and the numbers had him favored almost the entire time...

I'm a political junkie and I just don't see it. If Danny Strong can do it; he's far more talented than I ever imagined.

it was a huge gamble to push 25% of their spending in the spring and summer to define Mitt as "Bain Capital Guy" - prisoner 24601 Dec 11, 19:10 7
- That's hardly drama though. "Oh, I'll run a defensive campaign, and define my opponent before he can" -- nm - Roger More Dec 11, 19:34 4

    - That will all be in the book, I'm sure. But if Hillary v Obama didn't make the screen last time, what won't make the cut this time? -- nm - Roger More Dec 11, 19:40 2
      - you ignore the GOP primaries and focus on Obama v. Romney from May through November -- nm - prisoner 24601 Dec 11, 19:44 1
        
        But most of the schadenfreude is in the primary! Sure, there's a good bit in the campaign too, but... the schadenfreude in the primary! -- nm - Roger More Dec 11, 19:52
- He wasn't going to lack for resources in the fall; his spending reset at the convention. - Will Hunting Dec 11, 19:12 1
  - the campaign didn't see it that way -- (link) - prisoner 24601 Dec 11, 19:16
