I encourage everyone to visit
Key People-Former Gov. Mitt Romney (Gen'l Election Edition)
You will find much information on the insiders of the Romney campaign.
I suppose there are a lot of weak sister like that here on FR.
I don't have to enjoy the consequences of maintaining my principles. There is a cost to freedom.
I'm like you. I sleep perfectly well.

Funny, I didn't blame you, in fact I wrote that you had every right to your opinion.
I simply stated there are consequences to that opinion, now you seem to be defensive and accusatory.
It does encourage me to further loathing of liberal supporters in the GOP.
I explained my opinion and loathing of the GOP, I thought quite clearly, I guess you didn't bother to read it.
What ever.
Absolutely correct, but it would have been much harder if we had ran a real conservative.
I have said for years that polls are not predictive, they are simply palliative prep for what they have already decided to serve us. It does involve Both parties.
Huh?
The Bushes were quite low-key this year. The father endorsed Romney in March and then went back to jumping from planes or whatever he's doing nowadays. The son was endorsed Romney back in May and then disappeared. The other son made some foolish comments that didn't have much to do with Romney. I doubt it was enough to move anybody one way or the other.
Now we get blamed for his loss!
Yeah, but by whom? Some guy nobody ever heard of before who Romney brought on board to help with the Hispanic vote. Somebody who couldn't do the job who's looking for a scapegoat now.
This is the classic Internet thing where somebody digs up some obscure comment by some unknown commenter and people get all indignant about it as though it were really something significant.
Mr. Romney's VICIOUS attitude to conservatives
(but subservient to Obama most of the time) continued.
Who can forget?:
"Peeking Out From the McCain Wreckage: Mitt Romney"
"Someone's got to say it: IS MITT ROMNEY RESPONSIBLE FOR OBAMA'S VICTORY?"
"Vanity: Team Romney Sabotaged Palin and Continuing to Do So?"
"Romney Supporters Trashing Palin"
"Romney advisors sniping at Palin?"
Similar to Romney's other scortched earth tactics:
Novak: "Fred Thompson drop-out rumors traced to Romney campaign"
Dream on Carlos. If we continue to do it the RINO way, there will be no more GOP. Get used to it.
“I think we lost the election because the far right of this party has taken the party to a place that it doesn’t belong,”
*****
Which is why we need to leave the GOP and form a new party.
We lost because Romney is a stiff. Everyone knows you don’t buy the product, you buy the person.
Hey, Carlos...try ‘splainin’ THIS:

Yes. If they could just get rid of us, the Republican Party would move forward with being the Democratic Party’s “Me, too!” chorus.
Of course, he means, by “far right” is the Tea Party..
WHich is the source of many of the votes Romney got..
Interesting to know what “the top” of the Romney ticket..
thought about most of their voters..
Most voted against Obama not for Romney..
The republican party is “very sick” at the TOP..
Other than massive voter fraud thats WHY Romney DIDn’T win..
A hard saying is, AMerica got what it wanted and by the way DESERVED as President..
America is set up to make Sodom look like a “test case”..
RAP music and a Maggot as president will make for a nasty musical..
With not Zigfeld as director but LArry Flint..
Those rules changes were targeted at the TEA Party and grassroots Conservatives like Palin from EVER being able to wrest control of the GOP from the Establishment. Period.
It's time for a Conservative 3rd party. I'm never voting for a GOP candidate ever again. Let them fold themselves into the Democrat party - where most of them actually belong - or remain in the party that should go the way of the Whigs.
The answer to your statement was made Tuesday at the RNC in August. The rules changes the GOP-e and Ruling Class foisted at the pound of Boehner's gavel to vocal protests in opposition that were ignored - is that the Establishment in the GOP does NOT WANT CONSERVATIVE IDEALs/PRINCIPLES IN THE PARTY .

Duh, because we have not ran a conservative and that includes the Bush family.
Finally! Finally, someone has the right answer. Outstanding post. This sort of principled reset/restart is LONG overdue.
No one has yet lived up to the ideals so eloquently expressed in our founding documents. Why not us?
What better set of principles to unite behind than our own nation's original ideals, especially now given the clear and present danger to those ever eroding principles for which we stand?
I know that's what I long for and would be wholeheartedly enthusiastic for. I'll bet I am not alone.
Well, I guess the GOP has declared war on white males too, thanks GOP, white males are the new boogeymen, Martin Luther King Jr. wanted us to judge one another by the content of one’s character rather than the color of one’s skin, well, our leadership, like the Democrats, are a**holes and racists, thanks for nothing GOP!
Duh, I guess you didn’t read the rest of the post.
Bump to #93
