Romney lost because he was, and is, a liberal with an “R” by his name. Also, a number of Christians didn't vote for him because of his liberal social views now and in the past. Also, a number of Christians didn't vote for him because he is a Mormon. Each person votes his/her conscience on these matters.

Condemnation from others about someones vote is un-American. Freedom of thought is an American value. Dumping on conservatives who didn't vote for Romney, calling them horrific names, is a despicable thing to do.

When a conservative is the Republican candidate, the base of the party will come back. However, I don't think the GOPe will ever get behind a conservative to make sure he is the candidate (as they did Romney). I don't think the GOPe will ever let a conservative be the candidate.

Remember, the mantra of the GOPe was, “Romney is electable.” Don't vote for the others in the primary, because “Romney is electable.” I heard that over and over and knew it wasn't true - and it wasn't.

As for me, I don't vote for liberals, period.

Thank you, thank you, thank you. Folks around here are getting as bad as the blacks who call each other “Uncle Tom” if they dare choose to vote differently than the majority. It’s their vote, and they can do whatever the hell they want with it, no party is entitled to it. If we want their vote, WE need to convince them to give it to us, and if we can’t do that, it’s OUR failure, not theirs.
