1. He won Nevada big, but with significantly fewer votes than 4 years ago, demonstrating a clear lack of enthusiasm for his candidacy even among Republican voters.
2. As a result of primary contests, Romney now trails Obama in New Hampshire, even before the recent positive news on jobs. For a while, Romney was a stand-inm for a generic Republican in polling versus Obama. Now the reality of Romney is known, and Obama looks better in comparison.
3. Just got daily email blast from Mike Allen's Political Playbook on Politico, from which I note the following:
TIME Managing Editor Rick Stengel, on today's "The Chris Matthews Show": "You know that famous story about that guy in overalls in a West Virginia town when the FDR cortege came by, and he was weeping and a reporter said to him, 'Did you know him?' And he said, 'No, but he knew me.' ... FDR was a wealthy man, but people felt that he understood them. I don't think people feel that way about Mitt Romney."
Make of all this whatever you want, but it seems to me that the more people see Romney, the better Obama looks in comparison.
