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."

Well, you guys go ahead and live your delusions, you are no longer interesting.
I am sure you will have fun, I’m going to the beach. tata
I think they call that kind of thing, you know.....delusional.......
Obozo and the leftist twits I'm sure appreciate your undying support.
There is just one point on which I will disagree with you...
“Those who refused to vote for him in essence were supporting 4 more years of the Marxist Muslim.”
In my state, Zero won by +10 million votes. I could have voted for RINOmney 100x and not made an impact.
In states like Texas, RINOmney carried the vote by such a large margin, my vote wouldn’t have mattered at all.
Most states were the same. No state was won with one vote.
Having said that, every voter follows their own conscience. They owe their vote to no one. The founders set it up that way. Therefore, it is up to a candidate to actually stand for things that appeal to a large number of voters. If he does not, he is a failure.
“I would vote for Ryan, Romney, Cruz, Palin, Bachmann, Paul, Walker, McDonnell “
I’m with you there.
We aren't discussing a single vote or voter. Millions either stayed home or voted for a candidate that had no chance of beating Obozo. Now we as a nation are saddled with the Marxist Muslim AGAIN! Is that stupid?
“We aren’t discussing a single vote or voter.”
As it turns out, that is how the system works. Each voter decides to vote or not and who to vote for.
I don’t personally vote for RINOs. Not that it mattered in my state, but it mattered to me.
The problem isn’t just Obama. He sucks. The problem is that the two parties are happy to continue the charade of difference while moving us toward huge government, socialism and the erosion of constitutional rights. Both parties.
No, but he IS the POTUS. He HAS a Democrat controlled US Senate. He IS going to appoint USSC justices, liberal federal court judges and prosecutors. He IS the CIC. Wasn't four years of an economic disaster, Kagan, Sotomayor, Clinton, Holder, etc., enough for millions of supposedly rational conservative people?
Well, I can’t speak for them, but it would appear there was no compelling message that got them off their sofas to vote for the democrat lite...
Well, my guess what was the point of voting for dem lite, when there were other choices as opposed to not voting.......many other items to support.
In CA, it wouldn’t have mattered, obama won the minute he was half black.
If the reasons I posted weren't compelling enough those so-called principled conservatives deserve four more years of the Marxist Muslim and who knows how many years of a leftist USSC and federal court system deciding 1st and 2nd Amendment cases.
I know that liberals are ignorant, irrational and stupid, but I had thought conservatives were rational, intelligent and had common sense.
Sadly, people is people...
No; I don't.
I will NOT be force to vote for the lesser of the evil to prevent a more evil from taking over.
You guys can call me names, question my patriotism, insult my intelligence all you want; but you ain't leavin' any marks.
Heck; before 2008 there was no evidence that OBAMA would turn out the way he did!

Not these ones. Partly delusional, partly foolish, partly insane. They own every bad thing he brings on. Unfortunately the rest of the country will suffer greatly for their short sighted rantings.
You're even more liberal than I had suspected.

You have to live with what you've wrought upon the country. Whether or not you accept responsibility for 4 more years of a Marxist Muslim, leftist scum court appointees, Holder, attacks on the 1st and 2nd Amendments, right to lifers, etc., is moot, you're guilty.
I'm not wasting one more post or second of my time on you, best of luck in finding a genuine life for yourself.
I guess you changed your mind.
Lot's of this going on in this thread.
At least I'm not an accusing whiner; vomiting up my insecurities for the world to see.
Your posts prove otherwise.
Then you can easily shown the whine; right?
After all you found time to select 4 posts for some reason or another to point to.
