Romney
I’m pulling for Romney because I believe he is the most electable of the candidates. But his recent debate performances —and these debates have taken on the importance of other kinds of contest serials the networks air— have been much too conservative and defensive. Gingrich’s superior use of the free publicity these debates bring has given him a lot of momentum. Romney needs to bring out a more aggressive style and stop hiding behind proprieties, too. Like tomorrow. Florida’s his firewall, some say, but he can’t rest on organization when he needs to have or even make a signature moment. I mean the good kind.
