I live in Massachusetts, friendo. I do not know anyone, of any ideological persuasion, who thinks that Mitt Romney did a satisfactory job as governor. After being elected by lying about his supposed principles, he proceeded to spend his entire term in office outside the state, running for President and joking about what a stupid liberal state Massachusetts is (yes, really). By the way, the healthcare thing, his one big initiative, has turned out to be a complete disaster.
So who else are Republicans supposed to nominate for President then? Right now there are slim pickings for them in candidates. The electoral map is stacked against them, and they can't take the risk of nominating someone from the deep south, or Sunbelt again that won't help them win back areas they need. Daniels is boring, Thune is a theocrat, Paul isn't acceptable to the majority of Republicans, Palin is off her meds, Pawlenty is too bland, Huckabee is too folksy, and Barbour is too connected with corruption. Christie is too green to make a run yet, and Scott Brown is focusing on reelction in 2012.
