Fraud and possible a deal between Romney and Obama lost him the election.
Romney is a stiff. Who the hell wants to vote for a stiff.
Remember Texas Gov. Ann Richards deriding GWB saying he was born with a silver spoon in his mouth? The GOP has a major image problem. Too many voters think it's the party of big business.
He failed to hammer away on what will happen when Obama gets returned; The Obama past due 2013/14 Tax Increases. The impact of Obamas gagging energy resources (a socialist construct never branded as such) with policies requiring reliance on intermittent sources wind and solar and that resulting in massive corruption .,restricted use of drilling, and coal ,bans and on fracking, and resulting prices doubling on everything.. This was a bread and butter issue which reached into every demographics pocketbook including accepting the demo-com definition of hyphenated African-Hispanic -Americans . .The impact of Supreme Court Appointments.. 18,000 new IRS agents and on and on. . Some were very briefly touched most werent and Benghazi/ foreign policy was left to languish. Then there is Obamas personal extravagance and behavior refusing to visit Nashville after its disaster showing up at New Orleans after Mitt visited it. Even after the Christi thing if that was brought up it would have blunted the impact.
Instead we got a sales pitch on executive ability but not the reason why one should toss the old model and buy his. That print and tv pitch , 20 million new jobs, was given a discrarded dose of skepticism
This from a much larger essay on the subject I’ve been placing in the comments sections in FR postings on this subject.
Poor Dr. Republican, so misunderstood.
This is often my opening line to people who are shocked that I am a Republican. Then I follow it up, if anyone is still listening, with the assertion that we have a different way of caring for people. We want them to be all they can be, instead of just giving away stuff on a long-term basis.
No doubt, Romney did this to himself.
“Cares about you” explains a lot; it doesn’t even require doing anything, as “makes life better for me” would have. It allows a Democrat to get away with complete incompetence as long as he “feels your pain.”
“Too stupid to live” is a solid description of these people.
Are we literate? This is a great thread, but the enemy can find a 100 spelling and grammar errors here to call us names. Jeez!
Interesting. I want a heartless, focused, determined, SOB as my president, not some bleeding heart dimwit who claims to feel my pain. Maybe then we can reclaim our standing in world politics, make some budget and spending cuts, and stop trying to give Disneyland to every sniveling weenie who is scared some else has more than them.
But that’s just me.
Back to dreaming that Margaret Thatcher is a US senator from Texas. Goodnight.
What really lost Romney the election? A dumbed-down and bought-off electorate. If the people are stupid enough to vote for the Great Nothing, then so be it and they will get what they deserve. I feel we here did what we could, as the saying goes, you can lead a horse to water....
"...and I am a MORMON."
We're we REALLY so dumb to think that GOD would let a believer in such a heresy as MORMONism run a country that...

Which can only mean one thing: Today's headline in Pravda war right. Obama was re-elected by a bunch of ILLITERATE idiots in America.
These are the same FOOLS who believed Obama's lies in 2012 the same as they did in 2008.
This country is so f**ked.
