“Um, who’s YOU people?
I pulled the lever for Romney while holding my nose. I had no allusions as to what he really was.
I shall not do it again however.”
There will not be a next time for Romney. If this infamous traitor throws his hat in the ring there will be a literal tar and feather party.
At the Caucus, I said that I wanted Newt. That statement eliminated me from being a delegate to the state convention for the first time in sixteen years.
The delegate selection was coordinated by LDS delegates who voted in a block during the delegate voting process.
I voted for Romney because I knew Zer0 was a Commie. The trouble with Romney was he had no clue what was a Commie. People like him never study political science things when the order of their life was to be a good LDSer or a lazy independent.
To me, Romney was the candidate for the independents. The grass root conservatives were squeezed out of the picture. The ball was in the independent’s court and their task was to put forth the campaign for Romney to win. Instead, they proved that they did not have the experience or fortitude to do what the conservative grass root had historically done. The independents did not have the work ethic that made things work in the past. They had no clue what work it took to run a successful campaign. They were arrogant and lazy. They slapped the face of the conservatives and told them they would do it their way for a change.
When the Romney people relied on a computer system to get out the vote, that is where their arrogant independent laziness hit them in the rear. That computer system either crashed or was hacked. They didn’t even bother to beta test it. It was end of story for a campaign to disaster.
There will not be a next time for Romney.
I believe the OP was making a more general comment about GOPe* candidates in general.
*I no longer call them RINOs, because these guys are the Republican party. They control it. They are not conservative. The Republican party itself, at least the leadership of same, is much more liberal than much of the 'base'. If anything "CINO" (Conservative In Name Only) would be more appropriate.
