RE :”No, only a pussy like Romney could have lost to Obama. He was the perfect candidate to lose.”

Romney and all those other losers who ran in the 2012 primary.

It was like the island of misfit toys. Most of them were not even serious, just doing it to get on TV.

There were two who even scammed the MSM into thinking they were running, when they had no intention to, as they both had TV contracts at the time.
It was a fiasco,

4 million conservatives did not vote in 2012, but did vote in 2008.

In effect by not voting against Obama they voted FOR OBAMA.

Use whatever excuse you need but you voted to let the whole platform of the left including obama get into power. There is no chance to advance the possible platform of the right into power when the cannot even control power.

If you did not vote you have no right to complain about how bad the right is as you by not voting did vote for the left. Justify it as you want but that is the facts.

[JSteff]

How justices voted in the past is just a reason to not worry about how the appointees of this president may tend to vote?

So you believe that in effect, the right should not vote for presidents and their appointees will possibly vote in the future?

That is a surrender your principles now cause there was bad decisions in the past. Just how do you make choices if it is not on principles and beliefs?

Very sad for voters like that.

Thanks for the realization. Those who do not vote though are not facing the fact that the are voting no matter how you excuse or explain it.

Those who do not vote are not part of the process but that process still works for all. So their decision still effects the electorate as a whole. Not participating means they have no right to complain as they opted out of the process totally.

Thank you for permission to complain.

He also would have won if 4 million “independents”, the people the GOPe promised us would LOOOOOOVE Romney, had voted for him.

The GOPe is to blame for the lose. If you don’t see that tough.

""In some ways, we kind of had to steal the Republican nomination. Our party is southern, evangelical and populist. And you're northern, and you're Mormon, and you're rich. And these do not match well with our party.""

Tea Party, you better learn to play the game. You got hosed.

I have to agree with you 100%. It seems that a lot here wanted Newt. But I'd like to ask everyone, who would they have voted for if they knew what Obama would do to this country in his second term? IMO, I don't see anyone but liberals winning until the Republicans & Tea Party can sit at a table and come together. I have supported many candidates but I've let the RNC & the Tea Party know that I will NOT support anyone until they can agree to disagree on several issues.
