That still fails to explain how Romney, in a bad year for Democrats, failed to reach the number of votes McCain got in 2008, a very bad year for Republicans.
I think Mitt and the GOP-E need to look in the mirror for that one.
I agree. Mitt, like McCain, was forced on us. Neither were a choice of conservatives. My sister, a flaming liberal (one of four), kept posting talking points about Mitt being a liar. She doesn’t have a clue what Nobama has lied about. She refuses to listen, yet she would continue to post about Mitt lying and changing his position on issues. We need someone who has never waivered—hard to find. And we need to get better control of the process. It would be great if the RNC would do some caucusing before the primaries, so that there’s not 12 candidates with the convention delegates spread between them. Something has to change.
