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

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."

Republicans HAD power. They left us with higher Federal spending, higher taxes, higher debt, more regulation.

Don't forget global warming ...

Let me know when we see the first “tiny” step in the right direction. I’ve been waiting for it for 50 years.

You don't have to wait any longer. You have Obama.

As for me, I'm a Republican and detest what the Democrats have done to my country.

I wonder if Mitt ever visited Stockholm while on his Mission in France???

You are obsessed with religion but I hdon't sense any spiritual value in what you post. While Mormonism is a cult, I can't help but wonder if Mitt's family is nicer than what you represent. Maybe, maybe not.

Could it be any of those things? You are the one suffering from Stockholm Syndrome, they have broken you and won your total submission, and as you are showing on this thread, you are now defending your captors as you turn on Reagan conservatives like a Rovian jackal.

Your comments seem quite irrational, if not delusional. I wonder if you speak in public as you write; probably not, you would be shunned.

This is the post that you call irrational even delusional, and inappropriate to say in public.

It sure nailed you.

“”Perhaps it was Romney campaigning for abortion and rejecting the party’s pro-life platform, or his being the father of Obama care and gay marriage, and his reaffirming his support for homosexualizing the military and Boy Scouts.

Could it be any of those things? You are the one suffering from Stockholm Syndrome, they have broken you and won your total submission, and as you are showing on this thread, you are now defending your captors as you turn on Reagan conservatives like a Rovian jackal.””

Not, haven't you looked into them at all? The Romneys are pro-abortion and have been since at least the early 1960s, don't you know that the cult leader Bishop who plans on becoming a God and who tries to convince Christians that they can as well if they will leave Christ, also has been promoting homosexualizing the military for many years, and is for homosexualizxing the Boy Scouts.

He is also a pathological liar.

You just don't seem to know much about the Romneys, it must be the lefty politics that attracts you.

What has NICER to do with being deceived by a heresy?

Yup...

Who in their right mind would really think that a man deceived by an easily proven heresy would be capable of making informed decisions about the complex world situation we are facing today!

The VOTERS perceived it, even if the 'leaders' didn't!

Real Republicans voted for Romney. You can blame everyone who did not vote, voted third party, or voted for the worst president in our history (in any of the swing states Romney lost).

I’m not a real republican. I voted for him then went home and took a two hour shower.
