I like that optimism. With that said, it is striking how the Republicans against a vulnerable sitting president couldn't seem to put up a viable candidate likely to get the swing voters and independents who decide the general election. While the independents may not be overly happy with the President, they do not like etch-a-sketch Romney. Moreover, there is an increasing perception that the economy is improving which is good for a sitting president seeking reelection.
