cometence is not the issue..appealing to the millions of immigrants (legal and illegal)who out vote us is an issue..better yet maybe a mulim would have won considering the pull they have in this country

Florida

I like Ryan, but the only thing he brought to the game was shoring up the conservative base. I’m not sure that he brought in many who wouldn’t have voted for Romney anyway.

He didn’t carry his home state, and he contributed to the whole abortion fiasco, and he didn’t delivery Catholics. I don’t think that was why Romney lost, but he didn’t help.

The GOP has got to do better with Latinos and under 30s. Romney had an extreme anti-immigration position. The Gingrich stance was much better, but did not appeal to the base.
