It's Time For Republicans To Put Down The Hubris And Get Real

The polls are showing exactly what I believe to be true based upon the way I see things.

From Ace of Spades:

Romney v. Obama: 48-46; Perry v. Obama: 47-47; Ron Paul v. Obama 45-47; Bachmann v. Obama 44-48.

... Obama is still the candidate favored to win and that we must focus almost exclusively on electability.

Obama is not a "sure loser" as has become the fashionable belief among many conservatives. Our best candidate (at the moment Romney) only beats him by a pipsqueak two points, and our best candidate (in the future, I believe Perry) merely ties him.

 I will write more about how I view elections later. For now, let's just say this: In my opinion, Republicans are up shit creek without a paddle. Perry is the only hope. I believe he would, ultimately, win rather handily, unless Obama can get an outlandish Stimulus passed, and virtually hand out the money to prospective voters in the street.

Don't be surprised if he does not attempt almost exactly that.
