NOTHING TO OFFER BUT HATE:
Verdict is in: Obama levels more personal attacks (John F. Harris and Alexander Burns, September 6, 2012, Politico)
With a few exceptions, Romney has maintained that Obama is a bad president who has turned to desperate tactics to try to save himself. But Romney has not made the case that Obama is a bad person, nor made a sustained critique of his morality a central feature of his campaign.Obama, who first sprang to national attention with an appeal to civility, has made these kind of attacks central to his strategy. The argument, by implication from Obama and directly from his surrogates, is not merely that Romney is the wrong choice for president but that there is something fundamentally wrong with him.
What's the guy supposed to do? He has achieved next to nothing; there's no difference between him and his opponent politically; and he has no personal substance. So too did GHWB think that his own contempt would suffice to beat Bill Clinton.
