Romney should not campaign until the President resumes campaigning.

[Drunken Irishman]

It's that simple...

[liberalmuse]

1. The man has no honor, so of course he'll continue campaigning.

Not only that, he will try and find some way to exploit this for his own gain.

[gateley]

2. Fat chance.

[question everything]

3. Up to him, and let the voters draw

their own conclusion.

[Maximumnegro]

4. Who cared. He's lost the race. LOL

I love it. Dude lost the race a while ago I'd say but anyway you look at it it is impossible for him to win Ohio with 7 says out. Frickin florida is tied in ANOTHER poll and Dems are now leading all of the early vote including absentee in only three days. He has lost media coverage and it won't come back. There will storm follow up the entire week.So not only has Romney lost he's lost to a STORM. It's like he doesn't even exist now. And I fucking love it.

This WAS the october surprise. It will be a 347 victory for Obama. The nation rallies around the incumbent during any crisis and I believe independents will break for Obama hard.

It's like Romney got snuffed out like a candle.

Buh Bye Mittens, we really knew ye.

[MrTriumph]

5. That's ridiculous.

Most of the US is not struggling with weather problems. There are plenty of states he can campaign in that would not imact storm relief.

[Drunken Irishman]

8. It's not about impacting relief. It's about showing respect.

But it's clear Romney knows nothing about respect.

[Stuckinthebush]

9. Agreed

It is STUPID for him to be in full blown campaign mode but to say that he shouldn't is ridiculous. Go for it, Romney. Let's see how that works for ya.

[MrTriumph]

14. That's still ridiculous.

Get real. This isn't about respect.

Ours is a huge country. When tornados blow through Oklahoma and Texas, or wildfires rage in Colorado and California or there's flooding along the Mississippi, life does not stop elsewhere in the country.

What is the issue is this: You don't want Romney to be able to campaign. Now, that's bullshit. He can- and should- campaign where ever he wants so long as his presence doesn't interfer with ongoing rescue efforts.

The fact is you are trying to create an issue to reflect poorly on him when there is not one to be had.

[Stuckinthebush]

15. I think I was agreeing with you

Are you sure this response is for me?

[MrTriumph]

17. For the Drunkin' Irishman...

Thank you, Stuckinthebush

[Faith9326]

6. Agreed, completely

But that's not going to happen.

[BlueDemKev]

7. Oh yeah, like THAT will happen...

...you know damn well that all of the GOP party hacks are huddled in a conference room right now trying to figure out how to best exploit the situation with the storm. Don't expect to see too much of Romney in the next few days, but watch out for a blitz of TV commercials.

[Bad Thoughts]

10. He can do what he wants

So long as he stays out of the way of relief efforts. If he decides to campaign in Nevada, it's fine by me.

[davidn3600]

11. Well there is no law against it

If he wants to campaign, he can. It's up to the voters to decided if he's an ass for doing it.

For most of the United States today, it's business as usual.

[RomneyLies]

12. Makes him look bad, so I'll take it. n/t

[FBaggins]

13. Which looks more presidential?

Someone campaigning during a crisis or someone actually doing the job?

I say let him campaign.

[blue-kite]

16. I'm not sure I agree... I detest Romney as much as the next wo(man)... but...

What is he to do?
If he does nothing, Obama wins by looking/being presidential.
If he campaigns vigorously he looks like a twat.
If he goes halfway-house as he seems, he looks uncomfortable.
Regardless of the fact that he is an empty political vessel full of other people's detestable ideas, Sandy has been the worse thing that could have happened to his already-faltering campaign.
Cheers.
