This time, I think the lens of the Bush debacle and the insanity of Palin and the Right Wing fringe have cast Romney in a more dubious light- only because he himself is devoid of any consistent ideology, or charisma. The GOP has officially gone into panic mode however, and they’re gonna be slinging it hot and heavy hoping something sticks. And our media, lazy and incompetent as they are, will probably latch onto something- and it’ll be a horse race once again.
