Conservatives need to stop blaming Romney and wake up to the harsh reality that half of the American population believes they’re entitled to the other half of the American population money. They don’t care if it cost them their freedom.

Conservatives need to wake up to the reality that unless their side COMMUNICATES conservatism in all of it's totality to include Fiscal, Social and Military/Defense, they don't have a chance in Hell of winning the argument, much less, winning elections.
Mitt Romney was the poster boy of the GOP elite and their message of pragmatism, moderation, and go-along to get along.
He didn't communicate any sense of Fiscal conservatism, his stated policies would do little to nothing in reigning in and DECREASING the size of government and he went absolutely AWOL on social conservatism to the point that he was just a little to the right of the Democrat positions on both Abortion and the Gay Agenda.
If conservatives, such as yourself, refuse to put the blame squarely where it belongs, on the shoulders of both Romney and the GOP-E with their attempt to move the party to the left, then conservatives will hasten the day that the GOP goes the way of the WHIGS.
You will either be honest with yourselves about what went wrong or you will be doomed to repeat the failures of 2008 and 2012.
We, as a party, will either return to the message of Ronald Reagan or we will die.
