i said moderate Dems.....can they vote in a Republican Primary?newt can't beat obama because he can't bring enough moderate democrats on board to vote for him
romney can't beat obama because he can;t bring enough Republicans on board to vote for him. He could get the moderate dems but without the full republican support, the win will be difficult....
imo.
I've heard that argument about Romney, that there are all these "moderates" who are out there ready to vote for him... but where are they, exactly?
They weren't in Iowa. He got less votes in 2012 than he did in 2008.
They weren't in New Hampshire, either. He got 20K more votes than he did in 2008, but overall, participation in the GOP Primary was actually down from the last time.
If there really were these hoards of disaffected Democrats yearning to vote for Romney, shouldn't we have seen them by now? All Romney seems to have are the same characters who showed up for him in 2008. His only virtue this time is that he doesn't have a candidate with McCain's stature opposing him.
