I have been hearing a lot lately about the confidence of Republicans that they can beat Obama. Perhaps they can, but it's the arrogance with which they present their thoughts that strikes me. I mean Romney at this point is the likely candidate, he can't get his own party to like him. I mean here are some reasons why Romney will likely struggle
1. Politicians are not trustworthy, Romney takes the cake he can't tell what his own position is.
2. People vote their religion. Romney is a Mormon, he is closer to a Muslim then Obama.(Mormon's believe in multiple marriages too)
3. People want someone like them. Romney is a rich, 1%er, guy from the northeast that is nothing like them.
4. People at least want to be able to believe what you say. Romney is not sure he believes what he says.
5. People want a job creator. Romney has a track record of slashing and destroying jobs.
6. People like transparency. Romney doesn't, he still has not released more than two years of his taxes.
7. Romney looks good in debates against Bachman, Cain, Perry, Gingrich, Santorum, and Paul. You tell me which one of those candidates seems like the orator that Obama is.
I think Obama is going to have a challenge on his hand because in my opinion it doesn't matter who the candidate is. People blindly vote their team, red or blue. The question is what are the people at the edges going to go for and I for one am not ready to call it a landslide in either direction.
