RE :”Abortion is the worst of these, since media types have learned that conservatives will do or say any crazy thing once the topic is mentioned”

That was certainly true in 2012. GOP candidates seemed to line up and jump over one another to shoot selves in head. They seem much better on it now, took some planning.

Romney wasnt much better with his 47%, he assumed only his $$$ donors were listening,.

Re: “Romney wasn’t much better with his 47%, he assumed only his $$$ donors were listening.”

I disagree.

Romney said that “tax cuts” have no impact on 47% of voters.

That was because 47% of voters either pay no taxes, or because they receive more government benefits than they do pay in taxes.

The statement was absolutely factual.

What Romney did wrong was stop defending himself.

He buckled, he started apologizing, he begged the MSM to destroy him, and the MSM obliged.

If you are not willing to fight the MSM - and Romney never had the heart for that - you should not run for public office as a Conservative.
