The real failure here is with the electorate. They re-elected Obama and gave the Dems the Senate.

Until we change that, it is just pipe dreams.

Don’t confuse the 1 national election with the nation as a whole.... playing games with electoral votes is not the same as representing the people.

Conservatives need to better leverage the congress, this is where they will be able to affect change, but they cannot do so if the upper house has no will to fight for anything.

This was a fools errand from the get go, political theater, that was always going to end the way it did. What lesson that should be learned is that we need more conservative senators... Even if we had every republican in the house this would have been the end game as long as the senate was going to do what everyone knew it was going to do.

No. He fought with the cards he had. The only crack would have come if the polls hit the Dems harder than they would the Republicans, we all know/knew that would not happen. The media and Obama control the message.

Gotta’ start somewhere, and Boehner has proven to be untrustworthy and unreliable as Speaker (at least to Repubs - Dems love him!). Removing Boehner would really scare a lot of RINOs and start the ball rolling to replace the traitors.

Not so. The real cause is the GOP establishment who gave us Romney because he had money.

The nomination of Romney caused more than six million blue collar Perot type and Reagan democrats to stay home. They saw there was not a bit of difference between Obama and Romney and they were right. Had the GOP given a suitable candidate, Obama would not be president.
