I wonder about that. The selection process started with close to a dozen possibilities, and through the crucible of appearances, statements, primaries, financing etc., the final choice emerged.RPB wrote: While the GOP could have chosen much better offerings, .....
In some ways, Romney is a perfect candidate to run against Obama. Romney has no old girlfriends, mistresses, ex-wives, to show up suddenly on The View or in Gloria Allred's office sobbing before the cameras, transcripts of squalid questionable mating behavior to be unsealed, no rap sheets to be exhumed, circumstances that have been Obama's stock in trade heretofore. Whatever one may think about Romney's philosophies, positions, capabilities, etc., and recognizing that there is no, and has never been a, candidate that lines up on every issue with every possible voter, Romney's selection is almost, pardon me, heaven sent. He can win, and name Supreme Court and other judges, and restore dignitude to the Oval Office.
Allred gave it her best shot, and came up looking like a complete buffoon. Game, set, match!
