Romney had to be extremely careful how he fought back. He didn't have the majority of the media drinking his coolaid and worshipping him like Obama does.

Republicans will have a hard time until they can turn the media tide in their favor. There are too many undiscerning voters who lap up everything the leftist media puts out. Perhaps too many people have just given up and don't vote?

I hate to say it, but the Republicans need to put aside social conservatism (abortion, daycare, medicare etc) and campaign on fiscal conservatism. That is how Stephen Harper has been able to with a few elections here in Canada. That and the left has split it's vote with the NDP and Liberals. But hey, it's worked since about 2005.
