若不是因为必须有一个人获胜,这俩家伙都应当归类于失败者——另外一种说法就是两者还肯定都有获胜的希望.罗姆尼先生的这一周过得真是失望之极!
解析:
1 Were it not for the fact that someone has to win,both would qualify as likely losers为虚拟
语气的倒装结构,从句中省略了连词if,将were提前
2 which is another way of saying that both are still firmly in the running为非限定性定语从句
关系代词which指代的是破折号前面的整个句子,即以整个前句为先行词
3 however dispiriting a week Mr Romney has had.为感叹句
