Now Romney will Attempt to Destroy Santorum
It is all he can do. Romney has no raison d’ĂȘtre for his candidacy. No vision. No core principles. He can’t beat a conservative opponent on ideas or on his conservative record. He can only beat him by carpet bombing the airwaves and raising Santorum’s negatives as high as his. And the more he does it, the more radioactive he becomes for the general election, and he is already at toxic levels as it is. After a prolonged battle with Santorum, Romney will be at Fukushima levels.
Here is what Santorum is offering:
And then there is this, which I think is the best ad of the Republican primary campaign so far:
I agree about the best ad so far. Was that a mud gun or a sewage gun? The blobs looked pretty sewage-y to me.
And yet, I can’t believe I was thinking, “Poor Mitt” as I read this. Romney is clearly not deserving any pity from the likes of me, but I can’t help feeling sorry for the guy. Stupid human empathy response.
