Mitt Romney Campaign Begins Preparing For Possible South Carolina Loss and a LONG SLOG



What is it with Sununu's constant mention of a "long slog" - sounds like some creepy Republican term for sex or something. blech

"CHARLESTON, S.C. -- One of Mitt Romney's top surrogates, former New Hampshire Gov. John Sununu, began the process Friday morning of managing expectations in the event of a possible Romney loss to Newt Gingrich in Saturday's South Carolina primary.

"I think you're going to see the same kind of long slog that you saw in '76, with [Gerald] Ford and [Ronald] Reagan, that it took the whole thing to win," Sununu told reporters.

"This is a long slog," Sununu said. "[Romney]'s never suggested one or two or three primaries or caucuses would make the difference. The whole campaign has been designed to go through the long slog."

Asked what Romney, the former governor of Massachusetts, will need to do if Gingrich beats him in South Carolina, Sununu responded, "He has to do what they intended to do from the beginning: slog along."

sex with Sununu would be a long slog, IMHO. No matter how short it lasted. And that goes for all the rest of those creeps, as well.

I hope it is. The more sloggy it gets the better it is for Obama.
