Given that Romney won the white vote by about 20%, had voter fraud not been so rampant, had demographic factors not changed so radically, these past decades, Romney would have won in landslide comparable to Richard Nixon’s victory in 1972 and Ronald Reagan’s 1984 victory.

If you read the article, Romney lost because GOP voters didn’t vote for him.

Romney managed to lose to Jimmy Carter’s second term, yet here you are trying to create a fantasy of him winning in a Reagan like landslide, if only....

Romney has never belonged in republican politics, and is a failed and terrible politician with a single election victory during his 20 years of running, and he failed in that office, could not run for reelection, and was booted out of office with 34% approval.

Actually, the margin for winning was far smaller. All Romney had to do to win was get another 100,000 Republican voters in about 5 states ~ and that would have been the end of that.

His handlers undoubtedly knew that but the one thing they never sullied their hands with was getting more Republican voters ~ not even 100,000 out of the 90,000,000 people who don't vote!

No, I think the message is if we ran a real conservative we would have clinched this thing. What happened was 6% of white conservatives stayed home.
