Funny how it’s always everyone else’s fault but Romney’s. No, it can’t be because Romney delivered fewer republican voters than John McCain.

Hey - face the facts. This would have been a massive blowout, if Obama had performed up to par. Obama did terrible, but fortunately Romney failed to take advantage of a 9 million drop in voters.

You assume it was a fair fight. That's the trouble with Republicans. We play by The Marquess of Queensberry rules. They don't.

Romney problems were Romney, no doubt about it, but why is Romney to blame for Akin stupid comment, Murdoch stupid comment after Akin’s? Is Romney to blame for Connie Mack? George Allen Jr? Ted Cruz did very well.

We won NE, all 5 electoral votes. In 2008, McCain lost an electoral college vote in Nebraska. This time Romney won all of them. Maybe Romney did poorly in OH, VA, and FL because of bad Senate candidates.

The reason your comment is totally off the mark and irrelevant to reality is this: this campaign was not a contest between two candidates. It was a contest between organizations, and the rats had by far the superior force. Our candidate could have been Ronald Reagan at his best and, other things being equal, he would have got his butt kicked.

This was not the fault of Romney the candidate. It is the failure of the RNC, asleep at the switch, to realize that the 'rats had been in full tilt campaign mode since 2008, while they had all been basking in the sun in Cancun, working on their tans until about eleven months ago.
