NYTIMES SPINS ROMNEY'S VICTORY INTO A GOP IN DISARRAY

NYTIMES/NAGOURNEY:
Can anyone bring the Republicans together again?

The victory by Mitt Romney in the Michigan primary on Tuesday night means three very different states — with dissimilar electorates driven by distinctive sets of priorities — have embraced three separate candidates in search of someone who can lead the party into a tough election and beyond President Bush.

Mr. Romney won in Michigan, the state where he grew up, with a pointed focus on the slowing economy, which voters overwhelmingly identified as the top issue there. Senator John McCain of Arizona won New Hampshire last week with the backing of independent voters, who are so influential in that state. And Mike Huckabee of Arkansas won the Iowa caucuses powered by social conservatives who make up a substantial part of the population there.

On the most tangible level, the vote on Tuesday was proof from the ballot box of what polls have shown: this is a party that is adrift, unenthusiastic about any of its presidential candidates and unsure of how to counter an energized Democratic Party.
THIS IS PURE LEFTIST PROPAGANDA.
  • ROMNEY HAS WON 2 OF 4 STATEWIDE CONTESTS.
  • ROMNEY LEADS IN DELEGATES BY A HEALTHY MARGIN.
  • ROMNEY LEADS BY 60,000 VOTES.
  • ROMNEY RAN SECOND IN THE STATEWIDE RACES HE DIDN'T WIN.
  • ROMNEY IS THE ONLY GOP CANDIDATE WHO HAS RUN IN ALL THE RACES AND PLEDGES TO RUN A NATIONAL CAMPAIGN.
ROMNEY IS THE FRONT-RUNNER.

AND THE DEMOCRAT PARTY IS HARDLY ENERGIZED:
  • THE PERSONAL ATTACKS THE CANDIDATES HAVE HURLED AT EACH OTHER HAVE VERGED ON THE RACIST AND SEXIST.
  • THEY'RE RUNNING ON CLASS WARFARE, RACE WARFARE AND GENDER WARFARE - DIVIDING THE ELECTORATE IN SHAMEFUL WAYS.
  • AND THE DEMOCRAT CONGRESS HASN'T DONE BUPKUS.
I THINK THE GOP IS IN GOOD SHAPE.

AND IF IRAQ CONTINUES TO IMPROVE THE DEMS DON'T HAVE A CHANCE - UNLESS THEY AND THEIR COMRADES IN THE MSM - CAN CONVINCE THE ELECTORATE THAT RAISING TAXES WILL HELP THE ECONOMY AND AMELIORATE A DOWN-TURN.

  1. And, furthermore, whether Hillary or B. Hussein Obama is nominated, there will be a very, very, very energized GOP base.

    In fact, Hillary could be running against a Ron Paul/Mike Huckabee ticket and mobilize the GOP base to vote against her.
