And then our guy loses. Surprise, surprise....
Oh, you must mean Ohio where the difference was 200,000. Hmmm, the same amount or more was fraudulent. Also, look at North Carolina, Virginia, Florida, Indiana and Missouri. Some of these the difference was less than 20,000. Do you seriously think there was no fraud and the election was won fair and square? I never said Republicans “blew it”...nor did the millions who voted for Sarah.
Sure, there was some voter fraud but c'mon, Obama won by nearly 8.5 million votes! It wasn't all fraudulent. We need to own up to the fact that we lost some important demographics this time around. This "It wasn't our fault! We wuz robbed!" mentality isn't going to win us any future elections. It is pathetic and deserving of scorn.

Well, you haven't been here long enough to have seen the outrage on this forum as Republicans gradually compromised their principles and McCain became the heir apparent. And sure, Palin energized a lot of the base but by then it was too little, too late. We'd already lost white professionals. In the end with Palin trying to carry McCain to the finish line, it was obvious to everyone that the guy just didn't really want to be president.
We preach a lot about personal responsibility on this site. Some people here need to practice it and stop trying to pass off the blame.
