Mitt Romney’s Judgment

Man, this really reduces my respect for him:

…for viewers who follow politics closely, especially for Republicans who desperately wanted to defeat Barack Obama, there is a revelation in “Mitt” that is not just unexpected but deeply disheartening. At a critical moment in the campaign — the two weeks in October encompassing the first and second general election debates — the Romney portrayed in “Mitt” struggled with a nagging pessimism and defeatism, unable to draw confidence even from a decisive initial debate victory over President Obama. Deep down inside, the Romney seen onscreen in “Mitt” seems almost resigned to losing to Obama in those crucial showdowns.

Only a fool (like the Republicans who voted for Obama the first time) would think that Barack Obama is a good debater (especially after the first debate). Romney should have followed up his first debate victory and gone for the Benghazi jugular in the second debate. He also should have slapped down Candy Crowley when she stuck her ignorant nose in it. Romney deserved to lose.
