Romney: ‘It kills me’ not to be in White House
yahoo ^ | march 3, 2013 | Dylan Stableford

Posted on 03/03/2013 10:10:39 AM PST by lowbridge

Mitt Romney says it "kills" him that he's not president. But he doesn't blame Superstorm Sandy, New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie or anything else on his loss to President Barack Obama--except his campaign's failure to connect with minority voters.

“I lost my election because of my campaign," Romney said on "Fox News Sunday" in his first television interview since his November defeat, "not because of what anyone else did."

The former Massachusetts governor refused place blame on Christie, who some Republicans say elevated Obama in his embrace of the president in the wake of the storm.

Romney said his inability to win over black and Hispanic voters--and the damage done by those disastrous "47 percent" comments--ultimately derailed his White House bid.

Ann Romney, though, pointed the finger at the fourth estate. “It was not just the campaign’s fault," Ann Romney said. "I believe it was the media's fault as well, in that he was not being given a fair shake--that people weren’t allowed to really see him for who he was. ... I’m happy to blame the media.”

She added: “I totally believe at this moment, if Mitt were there in the office, that we would not be facing sequestration right now."

So what are you pissing and moaning about? You had a choice between Obozo and Romney, just like the rest of us. You chose to accept 4 more years of the worst POTUS in history. Why?

Questions too tough for you, coward?

Who do you suggest for 2016?

No; I'd just do it wrong. A lot of folks on FR have said so.

Whom do YOU suggest; for your logic and politcal mind seem vastly superior to mine.

You have to travel a long winding road to make a connection,

You're right here!!

I think a lot faster than I type, and sometimes I fail to type what I've thought; so my path to lucidity is disjointed.

Right after you have television crews videotape abortions and put it out for ALL Americans to see and you and Judd could proudly stand for it. <>I think that's off limits for the tv folks.

Lots of baby seals getting clubbed or pitiful little kitties being abused, or polar bears balancing on an ice cube; but HUMANS?

Why; it'd take an act of Congress to get something like THAT passed!

Are you and Elsie one and the same?

Yup... humble members of The Order of the Ilk.

Estasblished almost 2000 years ago.

We have meetings and are able to recognize one another in a crowd.

We've learned to take lots of abuse, knowing that it's not US that the other folks can't stand; but what we stand for that galls them.

ANYone can join the Order of the Ilk.

Membership is predicated on the following:



 

John 6:28-29

Then they asked him, “What must we do to do the works God requires?”

Jesus answered, “The work of God is this: to believe in the one he has sent.”


1 John 3:21-24

Dear friends, if our hearts do not condemn us, we have confidence before God and receive from him anything we ask, because we keep his commands and do what pleases him. And this is his command: to believe in the name of his Son, Jesus Christ, and to love one another as he commanded us. The one who keeps God’s commands lives in him, and he in them. And this is how we know that he lives in us: We know it by the Spirit he gave us.

You're so naive as to believe one person couldn't have two or more accounts and handles?

But where would I get the TIME to post more?

That pesky MormonDude is hard enough to handle!

“When are you going to present the right wing conservative Christian you believe could have won the 2012 election”?

Any of them; if they'd had a chance.

Running a deceived MORMON for POTUS was insane; considering that so many Christians would be turned off by him.

Have you NOT been paying attention?

We are Conservatives SECOND to Christianity.

There is no way in hell that we'll VOTE for a man deceived by lies of MORMONism to be Leader of the Free World!

It baffles those with no guiding principles other than politics, but thats the long and short of it.

I'd just do it wrong.

Speculating on potential candidates isn't right or wrong. There is never going to be a candidate that all conservatives agree is perfect. I see some posters piling accolades on Rand Paul now when just awhile back I saw some posters claiming he was a traitor. Cruz some say is ineligible because he was born in Canada. Ryan the VP pick is suddenly a RINO. I would vote for any one of them right now over Obozo. I'm sure others will become more well known in the next two years and I dismiss few except for Christie.

Do any of "them" have names?

What type of Christian would allow a leftist Muslim to be reelected?

You'd rather kiss leftist Muslim ass?

Allowing a leftist Muslim to destroy the country is having no guiding principles.

c is for coward as noted by another poster.
s is for sucker, which is what you are.

It's called Operation Demoralize, a meme spread by Axelrod that Romney was no different than Bambi, to be spread through conservative or GOP leaning message boards.

You suckered for it, helped spread the meme, and they got just what they wanted, a major percentage of people who should have shown up to vote to take out Bambi, but didn't.

Pretty clear to me, sucker. The only problem is, look what you've done, you've reelected the worst, most divisive, most anti-American, pro-Marxist, pro-Muzzie, most destructive administration ever.

It's on you for being played so easily by the left. Wear it proudly fool, you were one of the many suckers who spread his meme, and yes:

Just
Shut
Up

I've seen your spam before, you cherry pick that stuff, then lead a life filled with hatred and nastiness filled with a petty pursuit missing all the central teachings, and that on a messaging board (safe, anonymous, never actually dealing with people). There's scripture for that, but I doubt you're capable of finding it, as it applies to you.

As an end to our discussion I'll leave you with this one:
Not everyone who says to me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ will enter the kingdom of heaven, but only the one who does the will of my Father who is in heaven. 22 Many will say to me on that day, ‘Lord, Lord, did we not prophesy in your name and in your name drive out demons and in your name perform many miracles?’ 23 Then I will tell them plainly, ‘I never knew you. Away from me, you evildoers!’

I do hope you find something uplifting to do someday before you have to listen to that in person.

Have at it, nothing I say will get you to look in the mirror, or convince you that God actually isn't interested in blind hatred; you've got it all figured out (in your own mind). I'm not wasting one more post or second of my time on you, best of luck in finding a genuine life for yourself.

My view of Romney is his political history.
There were thirteen people on my ballot running for president, not two.
You sure are focused on sucking.

We did see him for who he was even though he tried to act humble and deceive everybody.
His narcissism is what's missing all that ultimate power of being President.

AW

Your question assumes there was one. I don’t assume that. I’m not sure why you think I make that assumption???
Do you have one you know would have won???

Do you have a favorite in ‘16???

Do you just want to ask questions, or have a conversation???

Allowing a leftist Muslim to destroy the country is having no guiding principles.

A most excellent reply, shining the light of truth on their idiocy. I have one complaint, it should be expanded a bit. Pardon me while I make an attempt:

"Allowing an American hating, free enterprise hating, Judeo/Christian hating, race baiting, gun grabbing, destructive, divisive, power mad, think skinned, small souled, Marxist loving, destructive, radical leftist Muslim to destroy the country is having no guiding principles.

Redacted for the benefit of those who have no clue what they did........

s = stupid, silly, sucker
v = very stupid, silly, sucker
c = coward, cretinous, craphead
w = wrong, wussie, wierdo

sorry, I just had to.......I have no excuse, bad form, but I feel much better........:-)
