For heaven's sake, the guy's treated now by Democrats and Republicans alike as if he deserves to be up there on Mount Rushmore.<br /><br />My worry, it's much more than a concern, is that rather than making the case themselves, the GOP establishment will wait and see first which way the wind blows and if it doesn't blow their way, they'll drop the matter entirely. Too politically risky they'll judge it.<br /><br />The problem is that if THEY don't make the case, no one will. And if no one will, it will soon become just some otherwise regretable incident in the Obama presidency. Just like Clinton's perjury, subborning of perjury, and obstruction of justice are to his tenure.<br /><br />One bald-faced liar in the White House per generation is enough, don't you think?<br /><br />Shucks, maybe I'll take that "on second thought" back. I'm fired up.The Sage of Mount Airyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08141602249985159716noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8050750623814231496.post-37777167347061018762012-10-19T07:51:50.071-04:002012-10-19T07:51:50.071-04:00"Deserves to lose" Sounds a bit strong ..."Deserves to lose" Sounds a bit strong Sage. Like him or not, you have to admire Romney's tenacity throughout this entire election. I have watched both debates and quite frankly, have come to admire Mr. Romney's willingness to stand toe to toe with Obama and not back down. You may notice that this week the news media has been almost entirely focused on this single comment. During the debate I to, wanted him to attack but now, after a few days to watch the reaction I am beginning to think Romney's instincts were correct. A lie of this magnitude will be found out, and that is exactly what is happening. What Romney did, in not attacking that night, was to allow boldness of the lie to win the day, even if it didn't win the moment. I've read you comment so many times about Republicans willingness to attack their own and the adverse impact that has on our party. I would hate to think that Romney's failure to set the record straight in one debate would be sufficient cause to believe that he "deserves to lose the election".Mhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12417855790432778638noreply@blogger.com
