Exposing a document fraud is sure different than moving national public opinion, to make winners or losers of national politicians.
Even hundreds of millions of dollars of advertising science, and 7 years of campaigning couldn’t change public perception of Mitt Romney, posting here at FR didn’t ruin the weirdo from Massachusetts.
No it didn’t. And the facts are not even that Mitt had a smaller base; Mitt pumped it less well than the Rats pumped their own base.
I was answering the point that "You have a greatly inflated idea of what Freepers can do."
And millions including libs lurk at FR. If you don't believe it, go to DU and search for "Freerepublic" or "freepers", or Google "freerepublic racist".

I never said it did, just the opposite, I said that Romney was the only one left standing after we trashed the Conservative choices that we weren't supporting.
Since we had to deal with a weeks worth of nasty threads telling us that Palin and the tea party gave us Akin, some of us had to look it up. It turns out that Palin and the tea party supported Steelman, Akin was the choice of Bachmann, she made a bad choice.
Yes, I remember that, but endorsing a candidate isn't the same thing as giving us that candidate. Remember, it was the voters who chose Akin, and they are who made a bad choice.
I also remember the Freepers who insisted we should stand behind him. Although I would have been more than happy to eat crow on November 7, I was among those who thought he should get out.
Bachmann had to spend 20 million dollars to barely hang on the her CONGRESSIONAL seat against someone who spent a 10th of that, that is not good.
You keep repeating that, but that money couldn't wipe away her previous gaffes, and it would have exposed her gaffes to more people if she hadn't reigned that in. She still had to wage a comptetent campaign with that money.
Bachmann destroyed herself when she dredged up Rollins, the first thing they did was to attack Palin, and whoosh, there went Bachmann’s credibility, and her relationship with the conservative/Palin base.
Her Elvis gaffe or her account of someone who told her that Cardasil caused brain damage had nothing to do with it?
