It’s because Romney wasn’t Reagan or Palin.But the sad truth is that neither Reagan nor Palin would have a prayer today.The demographics and the mores *are* shifting and they’re shifting *fast*.Unlike in 1980 just about half of the nation (not 47% as Romney noted) is riding in the wagon as opposed to helping to push it.This is right out of the Ted Kennedy/Saul Alinsky playbook.We have become a nation of victims and that’s *just* the way the Rats want it.
“This is right out of the Ted Kennedy/Saul Alinsky playbook.”
Listening to all the noise about what issues the Republicans need to address reminds me of Saul’s quote...

Too many Americans want more free stuff instead of Freedom.
They shouldn't be out there on the factory floor either.
Less than half the population in almost any society are not actively engaged in income producing work.
I don't think that's a problem; I don't think Romney understood what he was saying ~ just mouthing something he heard on Hannity about the 47%, and even Hannity had no idea what it was about and didn't bother learning until next thing we know he's campaigning to raise taxes on the poor!
Write off the 47% thing as bad propaganda gone astray ~ even the Obamistas and their running dog lackeys dropped their campaign against it when they discovered they, too, had no idea what anybody was talking about.
