I wish President Obama would run a more "Us vs Them" campaign. There are more us's than them's. Obama is going to win re-election. Right now, the election will be close. It should not be. Obama can make Romney a foil rather than an opponent. Romney is in the 1% of "Them's." His experience at Bain Capital was as an investor, not as a business owner, not as a job creator, not as an economist. Romney is a poor candidate, a poor campaigner, and he's wrong on the issues. Romney and Republican supporters like Judge Head, Sheldon Adelson, and the Tea Party people are caricatures. They are perfect foils. They hate Obama and he should welcome their hatred. With them against him Obama can rout Romney-Ryan, and the Republican Congress too. It's good to have enemies.
