Your posts are getting vague and difficult to make out. Would you be specific with what you are disagreeing about or trying to say?

Is it about the votes that Romney failed to get?

Roughly the same number 59m, and 59m as McCain in 2008, meaning that in 2012, Romney left millions on the table against Carter the II.

2008 was an election that we couldn’t win.

2012, was an election that we couldn’t lose.

You guys cannot deny that the GOP made no gains in voters between the two elections, that they were roughly equal in persuading voters to vote republican, except against two COMPLETELY different versions of Obama, two totally different eras.

What a disaster Romney was, we were running against Jimmy Carter and a near depression this time, versus history, Bush fatigue, war fatigue, recession, and the first black president last time.

Would you be specific

I can't be more specific than this:

Preliminary reports showed that there were fewer GOP votes cast in this election than the last one in '08.

Turns out this is untrue.

You are the one who is unclear about what you are disagreeing with.
