After his wins in Maryland, Wisconsin and the United States Capital Washington, D.C. on April 3, frontrunner Mitt Romney is focusing on Obama. He told his supporters in Milwaukee that Obama is “out of touch” after “years of flying around on Air Force One, surrounded by and adoring staff of true believers telling you that you're great and you're doing a great job.” Romney added that “out-of-touch liberals like Barack Obama say they want a strong economy, but in everything they do, they show they don't like business very much”. Rightly said, although the multimillionaire Mitt Romney himself is at times a bit out of touch with the reality of the “common man” himself.

In Maryland, with 79% of precincts reporting, Mitt Romney has won 49% of the vote, Rick Santorum 29%, Newt Gingrich 11% and Ron Paul 10%. Mitt Romney will win all delegates in the winner-take-all closed primary of Wisconsin.

In Wisconsin, with 99% of all precincts reporting, Mitt Romney is the narrow winner of the winner-take-all open primary with 42% of the vote, ahead of Rick Santorum, which follows closely with 38%, Ron Paul with 12% and Newt Gingrich with 6%.

In the capital Washington, D.C. with 99% of all precincts reporting, Mitt Romney is the clear winner of the winner-take-all closed Republican primary with 70% of the vote, ahead of Ron Paul with 12% and Newt Gingrich with 11%; Rick Santorum was not on the ballot!

Romney's three GOP rivals, Rick Santorum, Ron Paul and Newt Gingrich, all said that they would remain in the race until the end.

The incumbent is generally in a better position. Only Ronald Reagan managed to defeat an incumbent Democrat president in the past century. Already for years ago, Barack Obama proved that he and his campaign organization can raise substantially more money than any other candidate, and that they can dominate the web, including search results, videos, social networks and more. Currently, Obama has already raised ten times more money for his re-election campaign than Romney, and his has five times more election staff at his disposal than his contender.

At the annual AP meeting, Barack Obama said that his likely GOP opponent, Mitt Romney, was in support of a “radical” budget plan, which the president described as “thinly veiled social Darwinism.”

The “Wonderful” forgot to mention that his fabulous “stimulus packages”, ObamaCare and generally inconsiderate spending have further deteriorated a preexisting, huge state debt, and that the U.S. budget deficit looks not better than the one of Greece.

If the economy will further improve, the race between Obama and Romney may be over before it has actually begun. If the key economic data remain unchanged, the Republican candidate has a chance. If they deteriorate, only an oily campaign can save the president. Unfortunately, Obama is best at campaigning. In any case, prepare for another strong dose of flowery rhetoric by the “Messiah”.

The bottom line is that neither Obama nor Romney are flawless candidates, for from that. But unlike the president, the Republican candidate has a positive record as a governor, Olympic Games organizer and businessman. Everything is relative, but Barack Obama has no clue about the economy, whereas Mitt Romney has shown competence in this field. And that is what counts in a financial and economic crisis.
