Here's something that anyone who is will vote for Romney can answer for me. The accusation is that Obama doesn't have a record to run on- ok true (his record is weak compared to the huge expectations that were created in 2008). What record is Romney running on though? He never talks about his MA governorship b/c it's tied to Romneycare, he never talks about Bane b/c it was largerly a scorch and burn business model (if he really created anything he would have made it front and center), he can't even talk about his religious background b/c the evangelical right still believes he's a cult member. So he's left to say what he will do vs what he's done. Very similar to Obama's tactic in 2008 of all the stuff he would do once elected. What Romney has going for him is the general loath of conservatives (for a variety of reasons) of Obama and not so much a love for Romney. My summation is that it's not that people like Romney it's more that they dislike Obama.
Obama never ran anything. He has an extremely short stint at the Senate, where he didnt exactly do much. The media and hollywood helped catapult this creepiness with Obama. Its down right disturbing if you look back on coverage from 2008.
Romney has had success running something before. He has the capability to restore confidence in order to return prosperity to the economy and the job market. He knows how businesses work.
And why shouldnt he attack Obama on the current state of the country? To not do so would be stupid. Obama would do the same thing, and he did in 2008. He essentially, was blessed with a sudden storm on our economy and used it to go after the other side. He promised hope and change, and failed to deliver. Romney is now promising change from Obama, and if he can deliver, it is exactly what the country needs.
Obama is not going to be different. We need something else. We need change.

Well this isn't more of a question of why Obama is better/worse or Romney is better/worse. I don't see any real difference in tactics. Obama is the known incumbent that doesn't have a track record that is worth beating the drum on. Romney supporters say that Obama doesn't have anything to run on so they act Romney on what he isn't/is. So in essence Obama is defining Romney in an image favorable to him. I am asking what is Romney's tangible and marketable record that he can run on? Like I said he can't talk about being governor, bane or much of anything. So what can he talk about? I'm not being cheeky I general want to know. I've heard Romney is a biz man, okay so why isn't his campaign shouting that from the hills? If he's a leader why isn't he touting his leadership as governor and the only leadership I hear about Romney is the Olympics.
What is it that makes him so good. I still believe that it's that people dislike Obama more than they like Romney...
