As I recall, this was exactly what was predicted right here on FreeRepublic in the weeks leading up to the nomination. I'm not sure why so many people are now in denial about it. The GOP nominated Dole again.

As I recall there have been several hundred “anonymous” sourced” Mass Media stories like this that have turned out to be total BS in the last 10 years.

Odd how the sour grapes crowd wants to dismiss mass media stories that challenge their emotion based opinions while feverishly clinging to one that validate their sour grapes that Romney won the Primary

Almost no one here was excited when Mitt became our nominee, but he is the only chance we have to derail four more years of hell on Earth.

I will support him regardless. I just hope he can pull things together, inspire the base, and spark a rally before this thing ends.

Boo freakin’ Hoo - I’m not buying it. At the very least, I think it’s going to be very close. If I’m wrong, so be it, I’ll eat my words on 11/6.

Unlike Dole the economy sucks. They keep beating the drums that Obama is winning because they want to discourage Republicans from voting. Rasmussen is showing too close to call.

Please tell me you are not so foolish that you define your reality by what you read in Mass Media polls? Photobucket

I don’t believe for a second that the campaign was resigned to loss in July when they were on their visits to London and Israel. The campaign was at the time running well, and the outlook for Obama was terrible as the economy was tanking all summer. It makes no sense.

This is a hacker job article, pulling unnamed sources and out of context quotes from people like Scott Walker. Walker’s comments were positive and encouraging, not negative and hopeless.

Oh yeah everyone, let’s just give up and go home in September.......Obama is unstoppable.
Nobody wants him re-elected, nobody wants him to have four more years but hey, all those polls cannot possibly be lies to disocurage us now can they?
And since when does the Romney camp talk to reporters in London about how they feel?

Again the message is “Stay home, it’s over”.
It’s only over if we allow it to be over. That is what Obama is counting on, it’s the only prayer he’s got and we need to do a much better job of recognizing psychological operations when we see them.
Wake up!

Everything from A to Z including the end of the world as we know it "was predicted right here on Free Republic" for about the last year. I tend to discount these canned replays of the obama media, but you may choose to believe and obey them by giving up.

As for who we nominated, we'll know better after the debates.

I don’t know this Dennis Boyles, but I don’t know why National Review would try to undermine Romney. He was their first choice!

Who know what lies behind this story. It must be said that Romney has a bunch of spineless losers for handlers. He lent some of them to McCain last time around, and they did everything they could to lose the election.

NRO belongs in the same dust bin as Peggy Noonan and Crease Brooks. Waving the white flag on September 29th. Unbelievable.

I want to see this guy’s face when Romney wins convincingly on November 6th.

Romney wasn’t my first choice but I’d rather have him as president than Obama. We are in the middle of a war. Sitting back and this point and saying “I told you so” isn’t going to advance anything.

I’m just plain disgusted by the media and the “conservative” weak-kneed pansies who are more interested in moaning about how horrible everything is than winning. They need to stop writing this type of BS, stop writing columns about how Romney should change his campaign and start writing about how bad the enemy is.

The end result of this campaign, whether Romeny wins or loses, is that I’m a lot less likely to read “conservative” blogs that put a lot of negative BS up, or that turn tail and run when Romney is down. Its not how I want to spend my time. Screw them.

The polls showing Ubama winning are all using 2008 turnout projections instead of 2010 turnout projections. Use 2010 turnout projections and Ubama loses by between 3 and 10 points.

Ubama is not winning any demographic he lost in 2008, and is behind 2008 in the demographics he did win.

Fact is, Ubama is going to lose in a landslide, and he knows it, which is why he and Moochelle just bought that new crib in Hawaii.

He wouldn't be planning a move if he thought he was going to win.

I know people who’ve never voted who are registered now and cannot wait to pull the Anti-Obama lever. All of these “articles” make me laugh. Look at any yahoo article bashing Mitt or stroking Obama and it’s easily a 60/40 split if not more of posters who LOATH Obama. The guy is the biggest Worm in American politics and November 6th will show it.

In 2008 my fingers were crossed because every damn person I talked to would not say a negative thing about Obama.

I can’t find a person to say something nice. Coal plants shut down (union). Energy plant filed bankruptcy (union) RR workers who move everything but mostly coal (union). They all hate the Socialist POS.

Mittens has no fire in his belly(unless he’s running against conservatives in the primaries).

There are so many ways to attack Zero, but he chooses not to.

I still predict that about two weeks before the election, he will turn hard right to attempt to ensure conservatives will
get out and vote. Will it work? Who knows.

Sounds like their game plan is working - make the Right depressed and have them give up because “it’s already over”. Don’t let them get to you with the BS.

The UK media shows Romney as a right-wing nutter buffoon... even the TELEGRAPH seems to do so, you can tell from the people who leave messages at the TELEGRAPH blogs

I recall many (including Rush) say obama and the LSM would pull out all the stops to demoralize us. That’s what I remember and that’s what’s happening.

I have one word for both you and Dennis Boyle:

“NUTS!”
