It was too late for Romney, though. He had already taken a hard line stance to win the primary debate with Perry, attacking him mercilessly along with Michelle Bachman. He launched another barrage against Newt Gingrich on the same subject. Neither Romney nor Bachman was experienced in winning the Hispanic vote.

And the Axelrod Full-Bore Campaign machine would have chewed up and spit out Bachmann, Perry, Santorum and even Gingrich ten times faster than the Romney Primary machine did.

xzins, YOU are wrong. Viennacon is correct.

There are 58 million Americans who hate America. Insurmountable at this point.

Reagan would have been beat yesterday, too.

I was thinking the same thing. I don’t think Reagan could of won against this electorate. The electorate has changed and I fear that we’re in for a rude awakening in some form or another (economic, militarily, etc.) Maybe that’s what it is going to take. Basically, there is more of them then there are of us!

Stated, but not proven, FRiend.

The final outcome was predicted ... but ignored; and how those
who accurately predicted it ... truly, truly wish we were wrong.

Agreed, and if you think about it, Romney only had one gaffe (47%) in the entire campaign, which was off camera. Can you imagine if Bachmann, Perry, Santorum, Palin, or Gingrich had been the nominee with this media? There would have been no true campaign because all we would talk about are the gaffes. What amazes me is with this record, Obama held on to everything he won except NC and IN.
