Mitt Romney’s Incredible Shrinking Biography

July 26, 2012 | 6:29 pm

The most fascinating aspect of the 2012 presidential campaign has become Mitt Romney’s incredible shrinking campaign-relevant biography. Seriously, think about it: his entire strategy is to keep the focus on unhappiness with the performance of the economy under Barack Obama’s stewardship, and then glide to victory after easily crossing the invisible threshold of acceptability that challengers to struggling incumbents supposedly need to navigate.

Yet the number of items from his resume that he is willing and able to talk about in order to cross that threshold is close to the vanishing point. His governorship of Massachusetts? No way; it’s loaded with base-angering heresy and flip-flops. His Bain Capital tenure? Not any more, particularly now that he can’t even establish when he left that company. His “success” as measured by his fabulous wealth? Not so long as he won’t release his taxes. His clear, lifelong identification with a coherent ideology? Not applicable! His party’s agenda, as presented most comprehensively in the Ryan Budget? Don’t wanna go there! His values as expressed in his strong personal faith? You gotta be kidding!

1. Yes indeed,

and Dems must point this out, as in 'He has nothing to offer, and if he had, he won't discuss whatever it is.'

2. The Rate he is going he will be toxic by November

...Problem is, people are not voting for Romney because they support him. They are making a HATE VOTE. They don't care who will be elected, so long as it is not OBAMA.

This man believes the Soviet Union still exists, not only that it exists, it still poses a threat...now in the real world, someone said that to you, not once..but as recently as this week...wouldn't you be questioning their sanity?

YET, nearly half the country are actually considering voting this deluded person to the oval office...not because they are paying attention to him or what he says..they are focused on Obama, and getting a chance to vote him out. HATE VOTE.

And I am scared shitless, anyone noticing this?
