Here
is Jay Cost arguing conclusively that this fall's presidential election
will be a referendum on Barack Obama, not an election of choice between
him and Mitt Romney. Why? Because Republicans won't let him off the
hook.
By trying to cast it as a choice, Obama is taking
the only possible road to re-election. How can Independents possibly
like his record? .
Of course, if Jay's argument is correct, it means Obama will lose.
