“Moderates lose elections. “

Allen West lost his election.
Mourdock, Akin, George Allen, etc. lost their election.

Moderates?

Well; when they start to burn I figure it will take a couple of months to get to my place, when they get to my place they will start to die, when they start to die, I guess it will start to change the demographic and we can start over again.

In the Bloggers & Personal forum, on a thread titled Dear GOP: This is what you get when you run a candidate that 70% of REPULICANS didn’t even want, TennTuxedo wrote:
Folks, it was not the candidate that cost us the election.

No, it was our fellow Americans who chose to be takers and suckle from the government teat that cost us this election. Half of our nation wants the government to take from the providers to support them

I disagree what Romney could have done and didn’t was to tell fellow Americans that the reasons they are on assistance is becuse of government policices on energy and fuel...but didn’t instead he came up with a economy policy which nobody understood and if they got in their mail box threw away...Why because he could not use the word “ socialist” Why becaise his advisors were doing PC political correctness speak infulenced by Main Stream Mesdia . And they are resonsible for what happpened ....MSM WON

Good observation. Single urban women, minorities, other demographics are lost to the GOP.

“Yeah. I think Romney was our best shot as a candidate from the crew we had to choose from, which wasn’t great.

He proved to be a damn good man who worked his ass off. And he would have made a great CEO of America.”

well said.

You have it all wrong. It was the very conservative comments on abortion that scared women away. What does getting more conservative get you? The black vote? The Hispanic vote? The women’s vote?

Who do you think you would have attracted to vote that didn’t vote?

Women are attracted to a strong economic message but not by the edges of the abortion debate, especially rape or putting their own life on the line.

Akin and Murdouck blew it for Romney. Yes that may be where the party is but is not where the women are.

If the Republican Party wishes to keep its no exemptions stance maybe they need to give up winning the Presidency.

That's the idea.....Seems to work...Many have been down that road...

Sorta like defragging the drive....It will happen on the first day the government credit card is denied by bond buyers....then comes hyperinflation...and money won't matter anymore...just the supply of ammo.

Ultimately, it's that simple. Those MSM was all too happy to make those two boneheads the face of the GOP.

The opposition party has to be "all liberty, all the time" to provide a viable alternative to Big Government. right now, the public is more afraid of the GOP's version of Big Government than the Democrats' version.

You truly think that one of your nuts would have done better? Come on.
***Palin would have kicked 0bama’s rear end all the way to Hawaii so he could retire. Or do you think she wouldn’t have won the female vote? I still can’t figure out why she didn’t run. But now she risks irrelevance.

Obama is going to have a tough job- after all, he is inheriting an even worse economy than Bush left

Who the hell are you calling names YOU DUMB ASS HOLE

4 years ago Republicans had to hold their nose and vote for McCain.

This year Republican candidates had to hold their nose and vote for McRomney

Maybe when the GOP sends up someone who does not stink so bad we will win.
