More Bush gave us Obama, the Tigers gave us the Giants, bullcrap.

The GOP had better make sure to throw the 2014 elections, if they want any hope of winning in 2016!

[3Fingas]

Yes, probably. I was thinking that it would probably have been better for this country if the dems took the House of Reps also. Because, although the damage they would have inflicted would have been more severe, at least they would have no excuses when they failed.

On the other hand, times are so critical, we might not have had an intact-country to win back if that were so.

No good options and no easy choices here.

[Diogenesis]

Puhleze, the blame lies in Romney and Rove.
They were in it for the money, barely every spoke
up about THE FACTS (except at the first debate),
and refused to let Gov. Palin speak at the Convention.

It is Romney’s fault.

[GeronL]

They don’t need control of the House to rig an election

[Brad from Tennessee]

The victory of 2010 may have made Republicans too complacent in regards to 2012. Since the Tea Party supplied the energy behind 2010 the 2012 GOP ticket should have been Tea Party. Instead it was a mishmash.

[Breto]

Ihe Republican House dismal performance after being given majority status sure didnt give anyone somthing to vote for or believe in. They basicly gave Obummer every dime he wanted while misleading the citizens on faux cuts.

The republican party needs to be dissolved or purged of its massively stupid leadership.

The republican house gave us the debt and deficits and the liberty killing NDAA. They are as much enemies of the people as Obama is.

[Joe Boucher]

NO,
Nominating a RINO turd is what did the trick.
No more establishment rino turds.
DOle?
McLame?
Romney?

[The Sons of Liberty]

I said all along that 0bama would go all out to steal this election and he did. The GOP “Leadership” won’t do anything about it and 0bama has know that all along.

[softwarecreator]

Boy, talk about passing the blame!

So far on FR I've seen blame placed on:

• Romney
• Ryan
• Lack of Sarah Palin
• The Mormon Religion
• the polls
• Fox News
• Lack of voter turn out
• Voter Fraud
• God's Will
• Karl Rove
• The 2010 election
• Chris Christie
• Hurrican Sandy
• Project Orca
• demographics
• Romney’s Get Out the Vote Fiasco
• Sean Hannity
• John Boehner
• Romney taking the "high Road"
• Sabotage
• Hollywood
• The RNC
• the GOP in general
• Evangelical Christians
• Non-Evangelical Christians
• Non-Christians
• immorality and materialism in America

That is from just 2 pages worth of stories here on FR and I probably missed a lot of them and does not include reasons in the comments sections.  This guy had a "perfect storm" of bad luck that came his way.  He never stood a chance!

No. Most voters are just too ignorant to recognize that most jobs are created by entrepreneurs (who take advantage of good fiscal policy at the state level).

In the pop-culture idiocy of today, an uncurious voter tends to believe jobs are “created” from above, by the almighty hand of the Federal government. After all, the Feds print the money so it’s all theirs to begin with. We peons are only borrowing it.

[dalebert]

something is not right about this..polls were oversampling dems so no way did they win without cheating in some way..

[riri]

I have thought along these lines. While it is painful out there, evidently it has not been painful enough.

[EBH]

I think a more pertinent question is ....

A lot of us said we’d never vote for Romney and yet a lot of us held our noses and we did.

If we had known this would be the outcome... would we have had the balls to stand our ground?

In many ways this may be the absolute best thing and best result for our nation we could have ever hoped for...

The GOP is going to fail their self-evaluation and they should. We should waste no time stripping away the flesh from their old white rino bones and feeding it to a new younger top dog.

And then we should turn that hungry dog loose on the democrats.
