John Podhoretz has some advice for Mitt Romney:
"So here’s why he should be talking about other things, releasing plans, giving speeches on big topics—because it’s the only way he can control the discussion. If
he says the same thing about the economy every single day, he bores. He
provides nothing new for anyone to fix on. He has to feed the beast.
And it can’t just be that he puts his toe gingerly in the welfare-reform
pool one day and then defend himself for three days after. It all has
to keep moving.
In any case, if he doesn’t start putting things down on paper and
develop the themes in speeches and get specific so that there is some
meat on the bones of his policies, what on earth is he going to talk
about for the next 88 days? Whether or not he killed a woman? This is a
race he should be able to win, so if he loses, it won’t be because Obama
won it. It will be because he lost it—and we’re seeing exactly how that
might happen right now."
