This is a good point.

I was mystified in the primaries that Ron Paul was somehow an “unacceptable” candidate while Mitt Romney was OK?!?!

I guess electability counts for something.

Except Mitt couldn’t get elected. Oops.

Whenever you hear any representative of the GOP-e fart or wheeze the word "electability"... what they really mean is: "Someone acceptable to Rachel Maddow."

Obama won because he made a concerted effort to appeal to every portion of his base.

We tell our base to go to hell and then scratch our heads at the result.
