How Romney Is Blowing It, According To Every Conservative Pundit

How Romney Is Blowing It, According To Every Conservative Pundit

Benjy Sarlin

Monday morning quarterbacking is the lifeblood of the political industry. And now that Mitt Romney is struggling to break through in the polls, conservative pundits’ second guessing is louder than ever.

The problem for Romney is figuring out which of his backseat drivers know where they’re going and which are just shouting “turn right!” at every intersection.

We’ve compiled the bulk of commentators’ endless stream of pro-tips into one easy to read dossier. Now all Team Romney has to do is read over the array of sometimes bland, sometimes counterintuitive, and even more often contradictory right wing-approved options and decide how to implement it in the time he has left.

Show Us Your Plan! <...>

Free Paul Ryan! <...>

Flip Off The 47 Percent! <...>

Do Stuff You’re Already Doing! <...>

Go Big (On Whatever Topic I Specialize In)! <...>

Get Warm And Fuzzy! <...>

Never Mind, Be A Rich Guy! <...>

Be More Reagan! <...>

Just Go Insane!
In case of emergency, break out the Donald Trump option.

This is a great roundup. These pundits are panicking and masking it with whining about polls. The major news organizations have joined in with the bogus "race is tightening" meme.

So much for the "'OMG, the race is tightening!' narrative."
