Here is what Romney and Ryan ran on:

Across the board cuts in income and corporate tax rates. Check.

Reforming Social Security and Medicare check. Check.

Repealing Obamacare. Check.

Allowing people to buy health insurance across state lines. Check.

Allowing people to have Health Savings Accounts. Check.

Increased domestic oil and gas drilling. Check.

Increased nuclear power. Check.

Increased coal production. Check.

Decreased federal spending. Check.

Turning welfare programs like Medicaid and Food Stamps back to the states. Check.

Preserving traditional marriage. Check.

Enforcing our immigration laws and securing the border. Check.

Pro life. Check.

Pro gun. Check.

I like the entire agenda. I like the GOP platform. I loved the GOP convention, especially Clint Eastwood.

It all worked for me. I likeed the “I built it” theme of the GOP convention in Tampa in 2012. Loved that convention, every minute of it-—except Chris Christy.

I loved the idea of having a president who was a former CEO and new how business operates. I loved the the fact that he put a real reformer like Paul Ryan on the ticket. It worked for me. I don’t demand or expect perfection in politics nor do I except ideological purity. But Romney-Ryan ran on all of the right issues as far as I was concerned.

So you didn’t exercise any reason, did no research into his history of tow faced lying and voted for a fantasy.

That was freaking moronic. Now having hindsight you should feel shame at your mistake and resolve to not do that again. Ever. But you choose to defend it.

So be it.

You seem to be a social liberal.

Why do you claim that Romney ran on being pro-life which is the GOP platform position?

Why love the convention which banned Palin and was an in your face snub of conservatives?

Rather than know Romney’s lifelong positions and beliefs, you seem to just want to wave around his campaign material and pretend that is reality.

The reality is that he couldn’t turn out the base.
