Danny - I may be wrong but I thought he said that the Romney campaign said to NOT respond (when you’re responding you”re losing). Rove said they agreed (and didn’t respond) and that that was a mistake
I think the main reason Romney lost was image. Romney looks like a stodgy old used car salesman. Then the 47% comment wiped him out. I would say that one comment did him in more than anything else.
I don't think the 47% hurt him that much. It was a stupid thing to say at a fund raiser. "Give me money because the odds are almost astronomical I'm going to win." lol but did it change anyone's vote. I doubt it.
I wouldn't have voted for him because he put gay activists on the judicial bench, he was a weathervane when it came to abortion, he told the boy scouts to accept gays, he wrote Obamacare and I couldn't tell a difference between him and Obama.
I'm glad Romney's not president, because I doubt much would be different and all this crap would be blamed on the GOP. They still blame Bush but that's not selling well these days.
