"Ugh...It never ends. Every four years, the RATS peddle the same tax cuts for the rich B.S. and the GOP-E still doesnt know how to speak in clear ENGLISH what will happen.....I blame the bastards for not informing Romney to fully explain what the fiscal cliff means TO EVERY SINGLE DAMN AMERICAN in the debates..He would only talk around the margins i.e. the Sequestration cuts..In that case.....LET THE DARN THING HAPPEN! Let them raise taxes on EVERYONE and let the defense cuts happen! Let the damn RATS OWN the freaking issue once and for all, call their bluff....The reason the RATS continue to call for raising taxes is because they really dont want to do it, they know it will be looked at as bad...So let them do it, let them own the damned issue...Wrap it around them! The Left and Obama incredibly were able to wrap the economy around W. after 4 years of this domestic terrorist....Well, give them their wish...Elections have consequences...Let their moron voters have it and unfortunately the good citizens have to suffer along too but it is the only way.....Some people just want to see the world burn....Let the Left have its wish!!!"
I am slipping toward the let it all happen camp. Go Galt. Stop pulling the increasingly overloaded wagon and retreat to Galt's Gulch. Or even further, "Stop the motor of the world." Maybe something good will arise from the wreckage or not, but we will no longer enrich our Marxist masters.
You’re correct Truth29 that Romney didn’t strike enough fear in the hearts of marginal voters about the dire economic situation that Obama’s policies have created for America. Romney got the 90% of Republican leaning voters who paid enough attention to the issues and believed that Romney - with all his faults - would still do a better job than Obama. He didn’t get the 10% of marginal voters who are motivated only through fear and anger. Those people voted in 2010 and stayed home in 2012. Romney was vicious against his Republican opponents in the primaries and a wimp in not attacking Obama in the campaign.
