Romney got two million less votes than McCain. What can we surmise from that info. Hmmmm. Who was McCain’s running mate? Could that have been a factor? hmmmmm. The fact is why I gladly voted for Romney over Obama, I eagerly voted for McCain because Palin was on the ticket. I love Ryan as well, but I have to think Palin stirred the emotions of Pubbies like no one since Reagan. I’ve got to believe she was the reason McCain outpolled Romney.

Yep. I remember watching Newt on the RNC floor in Minnesota in 2008 after Palin spoke- he said something to the effect that there was a feeling in that room that had been missing since 1980.

Ryan's a good man, but yeah, you either feel it or you don't.
