Romney Problems

Writing for The Weekly Standard, Jeffrey Anderson shows how Romney will be an easy target for Obama:

If one were going to design a Republican opponent tailor-made to President Obama’s liking, that opponent would be uniquely vulnerable to Obama’s main rhetorical thrust (making class-warfare arguments), uniquely unsuited to take clear aim at Obama’s least popular action as president (spearheading the passage of Obamacare), and uniquely strong in states that are unlikely to matter in the general election race. In all three of these ways, Romney is made to order for Obama.

The points are hard to argue against: Romney is wealthy, the father of Romneycare in Massachusetts, and strong in the northeast, which will vote Democratic regardless. Ouch.
