The Process of selecting the next American president begins on January 3, 2012, in Iowa. Surveys show Newt Gingrinch rising over Mitt Romney in the latest national polls. They say Romney is focusing his campaign to winning the New Hampshire primary, which is to be held a week after the Iowa caucuses. Romney seems to be focused as well on his Republican Rival, President Barrack Obama and his economic record. He states that he thinks Obama does not understand America nor it's economy. He "does not understand the power of free people, free to choose their course in life." Although the surveys tell us that this race may just be between Romney and Gingrinch, we have seen Congresswoman Michele Buchmann, Texas governor Rick Perry, and Georgia businessman Herman Cain, all quickly rise and fall in the polls. Hermain Cain actually had to suspend his campaign after allegations of sexual misconduct. But on the other hand, Romney seems to be having a bit of trouble as he tries to prove to his Republicans that he is a true conservative.
"The race in one respect is pretty clear. A quarter of the Republican Party wants Mitt Romney and the other three-quarters want to have nothing to do with him."-states analyst Stuart Rothenberg
Some problems that have been addressed include the closeness of the surveys and polls so far. It seems impossible to tell where this race can be heading. We have many competitive people running. Who will win?
From this article, I have learned that Romney is against Barrack Obama in this race and on his views. Does Obama really not know how to take care of our economy? Or is Romney just trying to find someone to throw the blame on?
I plan to look further into Romney's views and issues as he runs in this race. I plan to go further and see what Romney "truly" is about.
The author of this article seems to be against Romney, since most of his quotes and evidence point against Romney.
