"He [Romney] killed us all over the country. Look at [same-sex] marriage. We've never lost the issue before, until it shared a ballot with Romney then we lost it four times on one day. Heck, we even won marriage in California on Election Day 2008 for goodness sake.
There will never be another establishment candidate like that. Jeb Bush, Chris Christie...those people will never happen. Heck, I think Christie will be driven out of the GOP and be the next Charlie Crist. Mitt just killed Republicans in my home state. People are angry, especially because Matt Drudge and Karl Rove told us it was all in the bag all along, after they got done smearing conservatives in the primary and dumping on Todd Akin.
It's on like Donkey Kong."

Mitt Romney in response to a question regard his support for Chick-fil-A and CFA Appreciation Day: “That’s not part of our campaign.”
The RINO’s were utterly ashamed of the defense of marriage. They can go to hell. They’ve already sent us there.
Republicans are not Conservatives. The GOP is toast.
Romney was vague and had at least two positions on every issue.
Cute nonsense, but what we see in reality is the GOP campaigning against the republican nominee in races like Joe Miller’s, Hoffman’s, O’Donnell, Aiken, and I think others.
The republican is the nominee, and the leadership of the party becomes his opposition.
In some cases actually coming out for his opponent.
Big tent means liberal.
Yeah, we know Romney’s past. Just watch the debate with Kennedy. I’m actually surprised this was not used against him in the campaign. I like Romney as a person so I’m not going to kick him while he’s down. But I was wondering. As we all know, Romney is far from being a right-winger. He’s not a conservative. Now there are some that claim he’s the same as Obama. I do not even come to come close to agreeing with that.
But suppose the moderates look at Romney and see only the liberal in him and they look at Obama and are blind to the socialism that we all see in him.
What are the chances that the moderates look into Romney’s history and concluded that there really is no HUGE gap between the two on issues and since there’s already someone with similar stances in the White House, perhaps it’s better to keep the one that’s already established?
Mourdock did it on purpose. No way he didn’t know a month after Akin that that would end him. Why, I have no idea.
Where are all the rombots now that he got his ass kicked?

***The chances are proportional to the votes received.
2008:
OBama 69,297,997
McCain: 59,597,520
2012:
Obama: 54,773,837
Romney 53,716,689
Funny. I've already posted that people voted for the devil they know.
Big tent means liberal.
***No, it doesn’t. I’m a big tent conservative.
We’ve seen our last ‘honest and free’ national elections back in 2008 - Cook County is now national, so the blame game of who is ‘responsible’ for this loss is moot.
Obama CHOSE Romney to be the preferred opposition candidate if any of you care to remember. We’ve gone Soviet - and we simply refuse to accept that fact.
But if the future was not rigged by the Machine to keep Marxists in power for perpetuity - it is clear that Christian Conservatives have no place in the GOP and are not wanted.
Therefore - we should leave them to themselves and just become the Democrats they already are and forge a new party. That would be the only option left us if we were not taken over in a Marxist putsch back in 2008.
Barry Goldwater warned us about this three decades ago. "Movement SoCons" finally got their preferred President - George W. Bush. Look what he left us.
Thanks for the link!
It’s ironic that the left tried to paint a liberal republican as a far right winger. I don’t think they bought that for a minute. Especially after the debates. Not enough gap between the two. I think you’re right.
If you support candidates like Rudy and Romney to become the leaders of the republican party, then you are a liberal, and discarding the things that make the GOP the opposition to the democrat party.
It was already lost.
The GOP has no interest in conservative constitutional government. I wonder what the problem is.......
So-Cons are conservatism, you liberals, are just that, liberals.
Being a democrat but preferring the economics of the so-cons, the true three legged conservatives, doesn’t make you anything but a little less liberal than a regular democrat.
Sadly, in this era of celebrity worship, another drywall candidate won't do.

Walker, a real conservative, won WI twice despite being liberal enemy #1. Massachusetts moderate Willare MittRomney couldn’t carry WI even with a popular WI politician on his ticket. That is the definition of a piss poor candidate.
Now Romney can go home and continue writing checks to Planned Parenthood.
