The Only Advice Romney Needs

Ace of Spades explains what Romney needs to do to win over conservatives:

He must stop acting as if it's possible to win the well-wishes of the institutional left. Only a fool believes that, and only a man planning to govern from the center would plan for that.

Yeg-xactly. "Only a man planning to govern from the center"--i.e., maintain the status quo--would behave as Romney is behaving. That's why he's not appealing to people who want a radical change from business as usual.
