Icheoku didn't say that, Republican columnist did; and who are we to fault that assertion. Admitted that the manner Mitt Romney ran his campaign so far is giving some of us reason to question if indeed he truly, personally ran Bain Capital? According to Peggy Noonan, "It’s time to admit the Romney campaign is an incompetent one. This week I called it incompetent, but only because I was being polite, I really meant ‘rolling calamity."
Icheoku says when oracles of the Republican Party begin a cadaverous feasting on their own presidential candidate, the implication is that the candidate has indeed gone beyond being not so good to being dead on arrival. It is therefore about time such candidate suspended his campaign or re-organised or at least in part, in order to save face. If Icheoku was advising the campaign of the Mormon bishop from liberal state of Massachusetts, Mitt Romney, we would suggest he just pack it up now and quit the Republican party for good, if not politics entirely. No candidate can go the whole hog of winning a presidential election without the ardent and active support of his political party as his core base and Mitt Romney, who the Republican Party lunatic base never had any love lost for, will not be an exception. The only earth-shaking thing The Mitt can do now is to go out with a bang - just throw the Republican Party under the bus by abandoning his current effort. He will make history by forcing a situation where a major party did not contest the presidential election and thereby permanently etch his name in the history books as that candidate who chickened out in order to get back at his party which has literally abandoned him.
