Romney Team Decides Its Strategy Isn't Working

OLDSMAR, Fla. — Mitt Romney’s campaign for president appears to have quietly abandoned its guiding assumption, that the election would center on the struggling economy, and has visibly begun to feel for a new message.

Romney and — particularly — his running mate Rep. Paul Ryan, have spent a week road-testing alternatives, going positive and going negative, swinging at the president on everything from faith to foreign policy. The new efforts mark a shift from a summer of fruitless discipline and a convention in which attempts to present a friendly, moderate tone trumped any policy substance. And campaign planners said their moves mark a new campaign consensus.

“It’s not enough just to criticize,” Ryan told a crowd of over 3,000 in rural Virginia on Friday. We owe you solutions, we owe you ideas — and that’s exactly what we’re doing.”

"We owe you solutions, we owe you ideas — and that’s exactly what we’re doing.”

Really? And what would those be? Yeah, we get that RMoney is the "Not-Obama"...What else you got? Obviously "foreign policy" is a loser; the economy/jobs-reports should have been important, and that's a big yawn, (because over 70% of American KNOWS that the economy went into the trash because of Bush)... How's that "War on Women"/abortion/contraception/voting-against equal-pay thing working out for ya? How's that anti-Hispanic/build-the-wall-higher/screw-the-kids who came here as infants thing workin' out for ya? They're losing on the Medicare fight with seniors; and they're even losing the ObamaCare debate as more and more of the protections against lifetime-caps, pre-existing-conditions, and unjustified price-hikes kick in...How's that workin' out for ya?

And the "War on Reality" and the Fact-Free Campaign is going down the tubes the more the fact-checkers--(remember them?)--point out the ridiculous and provable lies.

So, we'll have to wait a few days until the next focus-group-tested "idea" is loaded into RMoney, and Lyin' Ryan, for regurgitation...

"Romney, Ryan, and the GOP don’t seem to know how to satisfy their middle-aged white male base without at the same time turning off everyone who’s not white, male, straight, or middle-aged. Unfortunately for Romney and Ryan, the people they’re turning off are the majority." -- Robert Reich

Can't we put your daily Romney's plan isn't working/he says 'we're losing posts in one and you can post on that one every day?

Lj, if you were running for president it would be a strategy of name calling.

Not Obama is still a powerful message and has Romney in reach.

How about 8% unemployment? If you like it, vote for Obama!

In the last 7 days, ~96 topics in Courthouse, about 1/4 with 0-1 replies, about 1/2 less than 5 replies, just a lot of shouting and ranting really. LOL Carry on!

If you want to be, press one. If you want not to be, press 2

Republicans are red, democrats are blue, neither of them, gives a flip about you.

It's 0-1 replies when a bunch of folks have you on Ignore... Ask me if I care? I'm going to post what I want to post, and whether or not anyone else reads it is irrelevant to me....

And, for the record, I have several on IGNORE, and I don't ready their posts either....

I'm glad we got that out of the way.
