To the left, there was nothing inoffensive about Romney. He was a religious extremist that would make birth control and tampons(!) illegal, an evil big businessman who would raise taxes on the middle class, make people go hungry by cancelling food stamps, someone who hated brown people and thought women should be forced to stay at home and have child after child.
How would running someone less inoffensive help? The left owns the narrative. And you can’t win just pulling white male votes anymore.
Frankly, I think the Republican Party and the Constitution are all but dead. We have a misinformed population that believes ANYTHING. Between pathologically sick black communities who would vote for Hitler himself if he came back as a black leftist, Hispanics, who escape third worldism only to come here with their hands out, ready to vote for the highest bidders, and government union members who don’t care if thousands of old folks and families get tossed out of their homes due to punishing taxes. We have staggering problems, and there may be no solutions, given the Communist mentality held by tens of millions of Americans. Our best days ARE really way behind us. Bob
