The Brit author of this piece, undoubtedly a lefty writing for The Mail, is pretty much off base. So is Mr. McIntyre, who has no reason to be embarrassed.
Romney ran a pretty good campaign with no major gaffes. His debate performance was solid. The GOP campaign seemed to be geared to picking up independent voters, among whom he apparently picked up a significant majority. He may regret not playing up the Benghazi issue more, but for some reason he didn't. He may have overestimated the intelligence of the American electorate.
Problem is that when one side is honest and plays by the rules and the other cheats and lies like crazy and uses illegal voters and rigs vote counting machines, for example, the good guys are it a severe disadvantage.
There is pretty good evidence from the numbers of this election (especially the sound Romney advantage with independents) that the better man had it stolen from him by the fraudsters and cheaters. As Edmond Burke once famously said, "all that is necessary for evil to triumph is for good people to do nothing."
And....The Republican party will continue to do nothing!
By the way I admire West for demanding the impounding of all ballots and machines and demanding a recount.

I hate “hindsight” piling on. Frankly it’s just a bunch of sourpusses who are feeling angry over our loss. Heck, we are all sick about our loss but I don’t blame Romney. We gushed over his first debate with Obama and Romney looked and sounded Presidential. Had he resorted to mean attacks in the next debates he would have been criticized for that!
How do you beat corruption and clueless people who are wanting a Santa Clause who gives them everything? I read that Obama won 100% of the vote in many, many ‘wards’ in Ohio and Philadelphia. It was reported that he even won 108% of the vote in one and thousands more votes in some than there were registered voters!!
Never again will the population vote for the kind of ‘perfection’ our people are wanting. Half or more of our country are amoral, greedy, and, quite frankly, seem to love a lying man with cold, soulless eyes. Only God can help turn us around.
