If the right strategy is used by the Republicans in this Presidential election, it will not matter which of the Democrat pretenders is offered.
It is important to know what the strategy cannot be.

Posted at 2:42pm on Jan. 11, 2008 Turning It Around: An Open Letter To Governor Willard M. Romney
By Martin A. Knight
Good day Governor Romney,
This is a long one so I'm gonna get straight to it.
Let's take a look at the reality this fine day three days after New Hampshire - your second loss. The good thing (if you can call it that) is that Iowa was frankly (much) worse. You lost, and rather decisively too, to a guy who spent a lot less than you, started a lot later than you, and with far less of an on-ground organization than yours. And note that we're talking about a candidate who specifically went out of his way to launch missiles at two of the three major factions that make up the base of our party.
And he still beat you.
Speaking (or writing) as one of your supporters here at RedState, I'll admit it's tempting to look on the bright side; after all, you came in second in two races (to two different people) and came first in one (albeit one that no-one was really paying much attention to), you're currently the candidate who has garnered the most raw votes and the most delegates to take with you to the Convention.
However, from all the evidence available - and for what it's worth, I don't think you built your very impressive business career on shying away from unpleasant facts - I'm pretty certain you're much smarter than that.
