not a message that gets the blood flowing

That's partly because, as Dukakis did, Romney is selling himself as a better manager for the federal government, not as the leader of a grand crusade. It's not a message that gets the blood flowing. Yes, he says his campaign is "a battle for the soul of America," but he doesn't always sound as if he means it. （From LA Times, 3/18/2012)

這主要是因為，作為杜卡基斯一樣，羅姆尼是賣自己作為聯邦政府更好的經理不作為盛大運動的領導者，。這不是一個消息，得到的血液流動。是的，他說，他的競選是“美國的靈魂之戰”，但他並不總是聽起來仿佛他的意思。
