Presidential Readyness?

Departing from our usual Red-faced media moments, we must compliment Mitt Romney on a very Ready soundbite after his win in the Florida primary. “A competitive primary will not divide us, “he told his cheering Republican supporters. “It prepares us. And we will win.”

This, after exit polls showed that nearly half of the exclusively Republican-registered primary voters said the most important quality was someone who could defeat the president. And, according to analysts, negative ads accounted for 92 percent of all campaign commercials that aired during the final week of the race.

He went on to say that “ours will be a united party with a winning ticket for America.” And “my leadership will end the Obama era and begin a new era of American prosperity.”

It is only a coincidence that he concluded his victory speech with: “I stand Ready to lead this party and to lead our nation.”
