5 MYTHS ABOUT MITT ROMNEY. Including: “Some of the explanations for Romney’s loss are overblown. He does not appear to have lost because he was an especially unappealing candidate, or a too conservative or too moderate one, or one with a position on immigration offensive to Hispanics. It appears, instead, that what held him back was the electorate’s view of the Republican Party as a whole, especially its approach to economic issues. If he runs again, Romney should take note of that point, and so should his primary rivals.” Yeah, I don’t think he should run again.
