Like Dole. And McCain. And Romney.
I think the problem with Dole is he was just boring. The guy was an old dud. As far as McCain goes, nobody was going to beat Obama in 2008. You had just had the biggest market crash in 70 years while a Republican was in the White House. Pair that up with Obama being the first black nominee. Nobody stood a chance in that race. As for Romney, similar dynamics with Obama since black were coming out in record numbers to reelect him and in my opinion, he has never come off as genuine to me. He was our governor when I still lived in Boston and I always viewed him as having a used car salesmen personality.
