Roger Simon, Politico: Mitt is down; out looms next

Scathing two-page column from Simon:

http://www.politico.com/news/stories/0912/81367.html

The wheels are not coming off the Mitt Romney campaign. They came off some time ago. The press is just beginning to notice.

The Romney campaign is skidding along on its axles and scraping its muffler. Soon it will be down to the dog on the roof.

-snip-

But as I have been saying for a while now, Mitt Romney is a deeply flawed candidate who got the Republican nomination by beating a ludicrously weak field. Don’t believe me?

You know who came in second? Rick Santorum. Newt Gingrich was third, and Ron Paul was fourth. That’s not a field; that’s a therapy group.

Truer words were never spoken.
Is that the worst Republican field ever?

Mitt is a really, really bad candidate and steps in something daily.

That is pure CRAP, I don't believe it and neither should any of you. Rmoney has time for an October surprise. He practically mints money and the Middle Eastern thing has been spun to put it on President Obama's shoulders.

VOTE!

I am sick of seeing EVERYDAY, someone saying, Obama, just won the election today or Rmoney lost it today. How brilliant Obama is when he gives a canned speech, is everyone on acid?

That is B.S. Never let up, never give up and enjoy President Obama's second turn.

There should be a thing like the post count but instead, it lists the first election you voted in. Mine was Carter Vs reagan.
