When You Can't Say "I told you so"

With the recent chaos in Egypt and Libya, I imagine Mitt Romney would love to get up on a podium and proclaim "I told you this would happen. I warned America that the Obama administration's interventionist policies in the Mid East would only lead to disaster..." But of course he can't because he did no such thing - in fact, he has only criticized Obama for not being interventionist enough, for being too timid about overthrowing our friends and ushering in "democracy." So what's he supposed to do now - how can he attempt to take advantage of this obvious opening? He can't, really, except to sputter about whether or not Obama apologized.

And is Romney still actually running for president? It's hard to tell - he seems unable to come up with a single argument to actually convince anyone why he'd be a better president than Obama, other than his own mega-competence, which seems to get undermined at every turn in this campaign. I think, in his own mind, he's pretty much done with the campaign, and is now just hoping that various financial, diplomatic, or domestic meltdowns pave his way into the Rose Garden. Because right now, he's making Bob Dole look like Harry Truman.
