Romney was governor of Massachusetts and from Michigan and neither will go to Romney.
This really speaks volumes.

You know, Romney is not that terrible.

He is intelligent, hard working, and not insane (which are not necessarily qualifications for president, but compared to the rest of the GOP field, pretty good). However, he, and the rest of the GOP machine has gambled that painting another guy as a loser will make you look like a winner. It will not. Obama's and Clinton's speaches showed what leadership really sounds like. They can speak to the heart about ideas and values and convey a compelling vision for our country. It is a hell of a lot more than calling your opponent a failure. When Romney is shipped in November, hopefully idiots like Mitch McConnell will also learn that doing your job is about more than screwing over your opponent.

I think Romney actually lives in Mass, or maybe it's California now?

That means Mitt will be the first candidate in history to lose ALL THREE of his "home states"!

It means MA is still going left and parted ways with Romney. I think it speaks more about how Romney can work across the aisle if they elected him once.

Are you omnipotent now or are you relying on your magic 8 ball? Michigan is not a lock for Obama by any means.

The Republicans have packed up and left the state. I'm pretty sure it is going Blue and the Republicans seem to think so,too.
