I say it again, and said it from the beginning. Romney WAS the problem. Said he’d lose in an EV landslide (he did). Said the Dims would gain in the Senate. (they did). To be fair, I really thought the Dims would eek out a majority in the House. Glad I missed that one. I was eviscerated as some wanna be LibTard for saying the ONLY person to listen to about polls was Nate Silver. We need to stop worrying about the messenger and listen to the facts. We get none (facts) from our so-called conservative pundits.
It was evident to anyone with an ounce of IQ, and should be so now, that Romney was an utter disaster. It wasn’t some bizarre conspiracy or voter fraud. We, again, nominated a terrible candidate. Don’t think so? Then do the same thing in 2016 and see what happens.
The GOP Elite use these silly conspiracies to keep us at each other and in disarray because they KNOW if we coalesced we’d nominate a decent conservative.
Romney is, and was, a fool So was McSame. Are we gonna do it again? I sure hope not.
Tell us now, not in August of 2016, who you want the nominee to be. I am tired of people saying who they don’t want, who should we support?
Right now, I support Tom McClintock, I am laying it out now not four years from today.
I’m with you. Romeny was the weakest in the field. Unfortunately he was the last man standing after every candidate I preferred was picked off one by one.
I got behind him in the general election as by far the lesser of two weevils, but the ultimate result: utterly predictable.
In an election between two Santa Clauses, the Santa who offers presents THIS Christmas will always beat the Santa who offers his presents the Christmas after next.
I read one of Silver's articles that explained the Republicans should pick a very moderate VP candidate to have a better chance in the polls. I suppose you think he was correct after all. The new demographic in this country wants to use OPM. Mitt Romney was a good man and would make a fine president. This country did not deserve him. Ronald Reagan could not get elected in this country now. It has been all downhill since the demise of the California GOP. Virginia and Ohio are gone during presidential election years now, so sad. The country has changed, and not for the better. The GOP needs to enlarge the alliance. There simply are not enough conservatives (social or fiscal), white men, and married women to form a majority anymore.
