they have all been poor ones. Perhaps this is the way he operated as a "successful businessman", but it isn't going to work as leader of a nation. I think he's finished.

Oh yeah, they jammed the airwaves with negative shit about all the other crappy repuke candidates and bought the nomination. I guess, in their terms, that defines $ucce$$.

is about the only "smart" thing he's done so far and I'm not saying that he was a smart pick because I like Paul Ryan or think that his budgetary policies are good (far from it) but at least to the right-wing base of the party, Ryan was the most sensible choice and he's certainly no Sarah Palin and has some substantive experience in government (though, admittedly, that's a rather low bar). Everything else has been pretty disastrous for Mitt, however.
