I don't know about anyone else here but when the economy is in turmoil, in a "crisis" as they're saying, we could sure use a pro like Mitt Romney to work his turnaround magic. Imagine if the primaries were happening now...
Just sayin....
More: I better make it clear that McCain-Palin are a thosand times more qualified to get the country on the right track than Obama-Biden. Or anyone on the democrat side, actually. These recent series of failures have happened on Chris Dodd's (Democrat chairman of the Senate Banking Committee) watch. He and Barack Obama were both bought and paid for by Fanny Mae and Freddie Mac

The problem is also short selling and the SEC regulations that changed the short selling rules.
This is why Palin was such a dumb pick. Yes, she rallied the far right social conservatives who couldn't deal with a Romney, but when the conversation turns back to the economy, which we all know is the #1 issue going into this election, McCain falters... he doesn't come across as knowing what he's talking about. Nor does Palin ease concerns the way a Romney would have on the issue. Meanwhile, everyone is stuck defending Palin's experience for the job, the investigation in Alaska, and arguing over the culture wars... The GOP had the balance and experience with McCain/Romney (foreign policy/economy - senator/governor - west coast/east coast/heartland - ie: Michigan) Palin lacks credibility, and the chip on the shoulder attitude anytime someone questions her readiness for the job is a real turnoff.
I couldn't agree more with the anonymous commenter! Palin is a great person, but was a dumb pick for VP. The balanced ticket would have been McCain/Romney. McCain just had to go his own way one too many times, and the evangelical bigots of this country needed to be told to get over themselves. This is a mess of a situation and the Palin bounce is absolutely gone. Obama has taken over the polls again and he has no plan for anything except raising taxes. This is the best case I've ever seen for postponing primaries until much closer to the nominating convention. I'm convinced that if the primaries were held later than they were, neither of the presidential nominees would be the nominees anymore. The primaries happened way too soon and a lot of information and true personalities came to light after the primaries were over. I hate to say it, but it looks like the only solution is for the presidential campaign to go for 3 years before the election instead of 2. There's just too much dishonesty and fact hiding in the early stages of the campaign.
I agree. Watching Mitt make the Cable News rounds and handle these in-depth interviews with ease and without massive prep time and teleprompters makes me want to look ahead to 2012. I find my greatest enthusiasm for the Republican ticket springs from focusing on how awful the democratic ticket is. This is not the place I want to be. I want to be genuinely excited FOR my candidates. Sarah Palin might be great for pulling in some votes from various demographics, but not for the right reasons. I suspect "identity politics" is the name of the game.
