Matt Lewis/Daily Caller sums it up:
There are many factors, but the most costly error might have been the mistaken notion that a bad economy would automatically make it impossible for Barack Obama to win…Overcoming this false premise is just one of the problems that must be faced.
Romney has played it so safe that he’s going to lose–he’s refused to make the case for himself, focusing purely on Obama–but at some point voters want to understand what the alternative is.
Well said.
And after last night – we know.
