Romney should have picked a woman or Rubio as VP. I like Paul Ryan but this is retail Politics

It wasn't Paul Ryan, it wasn't even Mitt Romney. Look at the map. It was those who believe government is the solution against those who don't. Period.

It wasn't the Hispanic vote, Texas and Arizona have as many Hispanics as anyone. It wasn't the female vote. The whole heart of the country, which went for Romney has as many women.

The dirty ugly truth is that the left coast and North East have more voters who believe in government solutions than the rest of the country, so they win.

Not until that truth is accepted and dealt with, a way forward cannot be identified.

He who robs Peter to pay Paul, can count on Paul’s enthusiastic support.

At least until it dawns on Paul that this is a game of diminishing returns.

Your analysis is spot on

And, a Marco Rubio as VP would have given Arizona to the Dems, and made Texas closer. Mexican-Americans are not fond of Cuban-Americans...nor are other Hispanic-American groups fond of Cuban-Americans. Good Grief I wish this Rubio-pandering would stop

When 40% of whites vote for Obama...it totally supports what you pointed out. NE, West Coast liberals want government goodies...that isnt changing

Yea but Cuban’s traditionally used to be pro small government and pro small business.
