Democrats call this approach “racist” and bullying and “chainsaw”

But the rest of the nation saw it as truth, common sense, and a better way to restoring the country. Now the Chicago thugs will have to double down on vilifying Romney.  Get ready for some real nastiness.

“By pummeling the president on the facts and the policy, Mr. Romney looked in control. By walking through the concepts of growth, of free-market health care, of tax reform, he inspired with ideas. By explaining how his specific policies will help average Americans, and by doing it with a sunny demeanor, he became that likeable candidate.

The effect was not only to erase the months-long Obama caricature of Mr. Romney. It also undermined Mr. Obama's own pitch. The bold Romney vision put the president's (modest, pleasant) promises—for a "balanced approach," for "clean energy," to "invest in education"—in context: small, tired, failed. In outlining the great that might be, Mr. Romney made voters think about how measly the past four years have been. He flipped the Obama equation.”
