Mitt Romney isn't winning either though.
At best from what I can see he's been at a statistical tie... at some points.
I don't think he's any closer to Obama then McCain was... it's just the huge turn on Obama as he failed to live up to his promises has lowered his enthusiasm to a low level where people are afraid because they personally don't like him as much.

I would argue that Romney is in a better position today that McCain was, but that this is more of a result of Bush blaiming being outdated, people no longer needing to support the black candidate to prove they're not a racist, and Obama really having nothing postive to run on.

I'd disagree if only because John McCain had that whole "Maverick" reputation and was a well known well liked guy before he ran.
I see Obama/Romney, playing out like Bush/Kerry.
I don't see any advantages Romney has that Kerry didn't. They even look alike.

I'm still of the opinion that this presidential election will primarily be determined by how people feel about the economy in November ... Which is mostly outside of either of the candidate's control.
