Mitt Romney's Strategy

Is Mitt Romney really going to become the Republican Nomination for president? Right now, statistically, Mitt Romney has a substantial lead. Mitt Romney, however, has not had a seriously convincing victory in this entire election cycle. Every step of the way there have been questions. Can Mitt Romney attract the independent, middle-income, and young voters? The polls are showing the answer to that question is no, and Mitt Romney is starting to realize. Mitt Romney’s campaign is being run more like a business than a campaign. Maybe there is nothing wrong with that though. Just because the campaign is being run in a different way than people are used to does not make it bad. The main argument about Romney’s strategy is the longer the Republican Nomination goes on the more they beat each other up and use up money. Governor Bob McDonnel of Virginia, a Romney supporter, said in an interview, “I’d love for this to be over sooner rather later so we can focus on the president’s record.” Many people believed that by now Romney’s strong campaign and strong financial situation would have, for all intensive purposes, ended this Republican primary. But this remains to not be the case, and many Republicans continue to reject Mitt Romney. McDonnel also went on to say, “But however long it takes, the desire to replace President Obama will motivate conservatives and libertarians in such a significant way.” One of the leaders of the Republican party, although a strong Romney supporter, definitely believes that the desire to replace President Obama will triumph over personal gains no matter who the Republican nominee is. There is, however, one very happy man due to this long drawn out election – President Barack Obama.
