America may pick 'Mr. Fixit' in Exchange, as Romney lead his whole Life

(The 2012 Lowe-Down July-Race42008)....WILL RUN:
Mitt Romney. America, it is said, nearly always picks the opposite from their last selection. Obama was inexperienced at leading. Mitt has lead his whole life. Obama knew nothing about the economy. Mitt has been working with the America’s economic engine his entire career. Obama had never proved his competence at anything. Romney has proven his competence again and again. Obama is making a mess of things. Mitt has built a reputation as Mr. Fixit. If Obama continues to make a hash of the economy, foreign policy, and domestic affairs (ala Jimmy Carter), the situation will cry out for someone like Mitt Romney.

Couple that with the GOP tendency to nominate the next in line, and you have Mitt Romney as the 2012 frontrunner. The other two contenders for that honor from 2008 either have or will decide to pursue other options. Mitt’s ability to organize is legendary, and his fund raising talents surpass all others save Sarah Palin — and she’s not running. His squeaky clean image, which was derided in 2008, now looks quite appealing in light of recent scandals. Nobody, but nobody would ever tag Mitt Romney as likely to sneak off to Argentina to be with his mistress. Mitt now seems the “safe” choice. Republicans like that.

The Lowe-Down Bottom line: The 2012 nomination is Mitt’s to lose at the present time.
