What Fund should have listed were the first 100 major things Romney would have done on the first day. Then compare them to golf and vacation boy.
“He should have been planning how to keep Obamas henchmen form hacking into voting machines and stealing the election. Until Republicans figure that out, they will never win again.”
This is all that matters. Romney could have stood on his head and whistled Dixie and it wouldn’t have made any difference.
We know one thing Romney said he would do...
He would sign an Executive Order giving WAIVERS to every state in the union for Obamacare on his first week in office.
Thank you folks for sitting this election out (You know who you are). I hope you’re happy with Obamacare.
He ran an urban centered democrat style primary race and I wasn’t the only one to notice it. Rush Limbaugh pointed it out after Michigan where Santorum won 57 of our 83 counties and a 50/50 split of the congressional districts with Romney winning the Detroit centered districts.
He wasn’t worried about winning over voters, he was worried about pure numbers. If he had run a more traditional GOP style race it could have been a landslide in the general election but I’m not sure he could have won the primary by conventional means.
“Defense hawks would have been cheered by the fact that Mike Chertoff, former Bush Department of Homeland Security secretary, was a key player in the transition team and a leading candidate to become attorney general.”
Good article. Head and shoulders above the clown show we have now. Romney would have been a good President for this time in history.
The GOP is about 10-15 years behind the tech and social media curve.
The GOP is thinking pagers while the rest of the planet is on smart phones and beyond.
Yes. He thought he could win because he wasn't Obama.
Romney failed largely in part because he allowed the democrat slime machine to define him. And define him they did. To the low-information crowd, Romney was not only going to lower the taxes of the very rich to zero, he was this anti-abortion fanatic who would literally remove not just abortion, but all birth control from the landscape.
Romney did not effectively counter this assault.
You do not know how this galvanized ignorant women against him.
If this is true, then I'm glad Romney lost. At least Holder's corruption is out in the open, and easier to identify.
Romney was not on my top 10 list, or even my top 100 list. But for me it all boiled down to this: who would I rather have appointing Federal judges?
Too many conservatives (”purists” as you called them) refused to support Romney. Big mistake. As Rumsfeld said, You go to war with the Army you have.”
None of this excuses Romney. He ran a pathetically weak campaign.
From a medical POV, I simply could never figure out whether this Romney geek was among the quick or the dead. "Quick ... put a mirror under his nose ... he might be alive!"
Plan? This loozaguy NEVA talked about a plan while he was wasting about a Billion of GOP funds in a campaign that made Viagra Dole look dynamic. As far as I could see, it was Pat Boone vs. Little Richard. Artificial lo-fat vanilla vs. Pepperoni Pizza. The Mormon Milquetoast couldn't sell a blanket to an Eskimo. The Mombasa MF rope-a-doped him, class warfared him, .... kept the whole campaign OFF policy ... and Mitt (WTF Kinda name is MITT?)just played along ... tried to be a nice guy. "Vote for me. I am a nice guy!" Then, after that first debate, he backed off ... a drop-kick to the Gay Kenyan's gonads woulda done the trick....Ryan was worse. Imagine letting Joey Plugs claim that he and the Soetoro Boy "knew nothing about Benghazi" when Obama watched the whole thing happening live!
Yeah, I voted for him. But next time, one of two things has to happen: (A) the Republican Party must die, or (B) its axis must shift over to the right. The Two-Party "System" is a bitch. In fact, it is more or less a one-party system with the only ideological difference being Socialism now, or Fabian Socialism, i.e., Socialism tomorrow.
My FRiend you and I are of the same mind.
I agree with every word you posted.
Many here don’t, but certainly I do.
We "purists" did our duty. Romney didn't. His massively incompetent campaign proves his oft-claimed "competence" is apparently a myth.
Romney’s ship of state ran aground in the harbor
Why We Lost http://www.theusmat.com/
Exactly.
I could have saved them a TON of time and money (but I repeat myself), by handing the lot of ‘em a pocket-size copy of the Constitution and said, “Get to work dismantling everything that isn’t spelled out in Art 1 Sect. 8.”
You know nothing about me to make charges like that. To accuse me of being a leftist or for any form of socialism shows you to be a fool. Thanks for the language you chose to use though which allows us to see the waste of a mind you are that you have to go to such a base level. I will now go on with my life glad I never have to see you. I can assume you are such a coward you would never say such a thing to my face. Come on now, be happy.
