The reason that McInsane lost was the economic collapse. With Palin on the team, we were on a roll until the collapse September 14th, 2008 of Lehman Brothers. The DemonRATs put all the blame on the Republicans and the American people, low on the economic IQ scale, believed it. We sat back and let the DemonRATs set the propaganda story get sold to the voting public. And the Republican Party was caught with no counter effort to set the story right. The collapse was the result of Barney Frank and Chuck Schumer not heading warnings about the Mortgage Market bubble about to burst.
We are our worst enemy about not getting the truth about the economic collapse out.
His bogus suspense of the campaign until the 'crisis was resolved' was absolutely f'n stupid and was a major catalyst that allowed the dems to package the collapse as the fault of republicans.
He shut down his running mate so he wouldn't have to worry about being shown up.....I called that not long after the VP announcement and well before Palin ever wrote her book.
A good deal of romney's staff went to work for McCain't and when things didn't look like it was going there way, they looked for a scapegoat and blamed everyone but the leftists that put the economic policies in place. The side bennie was romney didn't have to worry about running against Palin in 2016.
Instead of picking viable candidates, the GOP looks to see whose turn it is too be the nominee. Well, it's my turn to tell the GOP to FO.
