I still say Romney did not lose. He just did not win by enough to overcome Rat fraud. We live in one of those states and the irregularities in just our neighborhood were astounding. Banana Republics have better elections.

Did Romney even want to win badly enough at all? It seems to me he launched his most vicious campaign ads of his entire run against Newt Gingrich in Florida. When it came to Obama, he pulled his punches. Only time he showed any real fight against Obama was in the first debate, after which he overtook Obama in the polls. From then onwards, he decided not to take the fight to Obama for some reason. Weird.

Many are ignorant about what it took in the “swing” states.

This is why we Americans need a movement to create an overwhelming landslide across states and beyond the executive branch no one can deny.

I think it's some of both....they are not really mutually exclusive notions. To be sure, there is fraud. But to be sure, Romney ran a horrible campaign, was terrible in the third debate - and squandered an easy win opportunity.
