“Hell I was right about Romney too, but he won so I supported him anyway.”
So did I, as well as did so many of the others. In the end, and thanks to the influence of the RINO GOP he was all we had between sanity, and the insanity that has infected the Democrat Party, but for all the reasons prophesied he wasn’t the one to carry the day for us. IOW we knew up front, knew he wasn’t about to make the grade for many of the electorate, but the GOPe ran him anyway.
I recall the slogan that “Romney bought, and paid for the nomination”, with promises, and contributions to campaigns for others. He wanted to be the President that his dad could not be. It was a personal thing with Romney.
You go right ahead and blame the voters all you want. They don’t care that you do. They are blaming you, and your GOPe for not giving them someone to vote for.
As far as who could have won? You first.
My Gop-E?..I am not even a registered Republican because they are not conservative enough for me. I vote in the primaries because it is allowed here. I wasn’t offered a better choice than Romney so I voted for him, but I can’t think of anyone who I believe would have done better. But I don’t need to because I am not blaming Romney for his loss. I am blaming the voters who are building a new Collective States of Amerika where the USA once stood. I am also saying this sad scenario will be repeated four years from now because all the same pissers and moaners are doing the same pissing and moaning they did four years ago. It didn’t help then and it won’t help now. You want a better, more conservative, more effective GOP? Quit all the introspection and reach out to educate the uninformed. Quit complaining to the choir and go create some new converts. These circular firing squads are really getting old. There are a lot of Freepers who worked harder to defeat Romney than they did to defeat Obama. Now they want to pound their chests and say “See I was right.” while America circles the drain under four more years of Captain TY-D-BOL.
