Romney was a liberal - a liberal is not going to win elections in this country.
The Democrats can always play the “gimme more” game better than Republicans do. And I don’t regret not voting for him.
Sorry but being MORE conservative would not have moved the mountain stacked against conservatism. Too you maybe but not the entire nation. It no doubt has shifted left with the new demographics coming in and some of the old one standing behind things like abortion, gay marriage and pot. The social issues are becoming an albatross. Single issue voters imho are swinging elections now...
Romney ran a strong campaign on traditional American values.
There's no logic to your claim that a "liberal" Republican can't win vs a Democrat while a conservative can. Either voters want "liberal" policies or they want "conservative" policies.
We've heard the same poppycock about CA yet Tom McClintock never won statewide. But that was never his fault, it was always the voters. Please. Find some consistency rather than continue this destructive path of cognitive dissonance.
