70 million voted against Obama. For Romney is different.

There is no checkbox on a presidential ballot saying “Against”. The reasons that 70 million people voted for Romney may vary. Every single one voted ‘FOR”

There is no option for ‘against’. For one candidate, or for a different candidate. Bo against. What went in in your mind doesn’t matter.

Trump won’t roll out a red carpet for all your desiderata, no. However he will make it easier for you to go get your own red carpet. Carping is no cover up for laziness.

PROVE IT...

Trump will “FIX” nothing.. probably make the problem WORSE...

Was Romney on the ticket in 2014 when the same numbers showed up to vote in a useless Republican majority?

“FUMR!! Go, Trump, GO!!”

Do you plan on zapping Mitt supporters this cycle, or will you let them live in the dog cage atop Mitt’s car?

Just curious...

You get Jeb or Hillary - or their clones from the Uniparty.

No thanks. I want Himself, The McKenzie, to burn them all down. :)

Same people that drove the party left with Romney also backed Mitch and Jonbon.

Guess what we ‘won”?

Obamacare. Again. Terrorist funding. Babyparts for profit continuing unabated. Protection from prosecution of Holder, Lerner and Hillary.

Pretty obvious pattern here considering that Mitch and Jonbon TOLD them they would work WITH a terrorist muslim id reelected and given the house and senate.

Sucks but it is historical fact.

No it’s voting FOR Romney. Effect is an excuse. It was just as nmuch an effect against the others on the ballot too. Why not mention them. If we all voted for one of those, ALL of which were better choices, we would have no barry and no mitt and likely no nuclear Iran.

Facts are facts. Civics 101.

You always have a mistaken excuse. If they were on the ballot, they were legit. What you FEEL about them caused you to vote for a guy that BBQs dead aborted babies for profit, lose, drive the GOP to its most leftward point in history...and make excuses all this time later.

Most people with sense admitted it was a mistake. But feel free to keep paving the path for more ‘lesser evil’.

So, what is this “us” crap? Are you referring to the lying, cringing, sold-out, PC, DC insider GOP establishment scum who continuously stab we American workers in the back? If so, then they don’t need saving, they need to be destoryed and replaced, like obamacare. And Donald Trump is doing a fantastic job of doing htat, as well as smoking out all of the GOP establishment mouth pieces and money men who’ve bought up the GOP AND the Democrats.

The media has done a lot of shamelessly pathetic things, but I don’t think I’ve ever seen anything more shamelessly pathetic than their ever more desperate search to convince the Republicans they really, really should run someone Hillary can beat.

They do that every election without fail. Nothing new.

They pushed mitt like fiends until he got the nom. they pushed Mccain the same way. Then turned. We discuss it every election.
