I’m not sure the result would have been different either. But Romney couldn’t rush to Washington and socialize the banking industry as his final legislative act before the election either. This stupidity killed McCain’s campaign.

Also Romney has chrisma, looks and is a polished speaker. Certainly you’ve read accounts where people just wanted a leader who doesn’t torture the English language every time he gives a speech. When I was young, I knew many women who voted on LOOKS alone. Nothing else. Sad really, but at least they were honest in answering my query.

Communication is the key to victory. Look at the last 6 Repub candidates, its amazing we won 3 of those contests with the inarticulate group we ran;

Bush 88 - won - the Duke just looked too stupid in the tank
Bush 92 - lost to smooth talking (lying) Clinton
Dole 96 - what else can I say? whatever?
Bush 00 - Gore talked nonsense (lock box) green taxes
Bush 04 - No one could stand Kerry - not even the Dems
McCain 08 - a Dem in Repub clothing - RINO supreme - the MSM and Dems candidate

Hey lets nominate a young articulate person (Jindal) in 2012 who
can take it to the people and stand up for us and themselves.
