Everybody loves a good metaphor, and football season is upon us. Let's play ball!
First Quarter:
Romney survives nomination among a clown show of candidates and ends up the least liked nominee of his own party in history.
Second Quarter:
Obama destroys Romney's primary asset as a businessman with Bain/Cayman carpet bombing.
Third Quarter:
Romney squanders convention/VP opportunities, and Obama runs up the score.
Fourth Quarter:
Romney launching desperate Hail Mary passes and losing yardage with repeated fumbles. Everything riding on the near impossibility that he will destroy Obama in debates.
Obama saving awesome ground game for late surge.
Republicans streaming for the exits
