..and we’ll never know to what extent the NSA had the electronic capabilities of making votes for Romney go POOF!!!
“6 million white voters opted to sit out last November’s election.”
No problem, McCain, Graham, Rubio, Flake, Alexander, Corker, Ayotte, etc. have it covered—the Republicans will increase their 33% of the Hispanic vote to 33.75% by enacting amnesty. That should make up for the loss of white voters.
“My conclusion is that Republicans should pay attention to the concerns of the millions of alienated working-class voters who sat out the 2012 election because the GOP needs them”
Not to worry—these alienated working-class white voters will be back on board when they hear that the Republicans plan to bring in several tens of millions of more immigrants to compete for the few jobs still left.
How do I know this? Brilliant guys like Karl Rove, Jeb Bush, Eric Cantor, and Paul Ryan.
Republicans don’t have to run a candidate the missing whites can identify with; a blue collar guy. They need to articulate a vision like Reagan did and run somebody who doesn’t look plastic, fake and like a Democrat in Republican drag. Obamacare was Romneycare. The only difference between the two was Romney was an American and Obama may or may not be. Romney probably wouldn’t have gone around destroying America’s image and destroying America’s alliances; Obama has. Other than that and some superficial melanin, they were practically the same.
Obama’s crew bragged that their Civitas database could identify voters down to the individual, and that they had megatons of data on each one. They use it to get out the vote and do fundraising.
IRS targeted conservatives and TEA party leaders. IRS also collected data on how these people are networked.
Suppose this was used not for get-out-the-vote for Democrats?
Also, what if this Civitas machine, IRS work, NSA work and other programs we don’t know about were used to do deep network analysis to identify Republicans who might enter a primary race, and make that difficult for them to accomplish.
Coupled with the State Run media’s obvious efforts to shape primaries, the confluence could be the result: a Republican candidate that conservatives did not trust and a low White turnout.
Don’t know if the missing 6,000,000 white votes would’ve made a difference with the incredible voter fraud: 148% of registered voters voting for Obama in Wood County, Ohio; 108% of registered voters voting for Obama in Cuyahoga County, Ohio; etc.’;etc.’;etc.’;etc.’;etc.’;etc.’;etc.’;etc.’;etc.’;
But this won't stop the marms from regularly showing up here to chide conservatives for not loving Romney enough to stop Obama from being re-elected.
Roughly 100,000,000 otherwise eligible Americans did not vote in 2012!
Since only (roughly) 60,500,000 did vote vote for the Republicans, it seems to me that there is onehellofanopportunity for the Republicans to find enough votes next time to run the LIEberal Democrats out of WDC!
But, they will probably screw it up again, just like they did in 2008 and 2012 by running as Republican LIEberals.
Somehow, someway, we have to get rid of the John McCains, Lindsey Grahams, Carl Rove kind of “Republicans” and find some Real American Conservatives to reform the Party.
I don’t think a third party will work, but I do think the Tea Party activists can take charge — won’t be easy, but is doable.
I still think it’s a myth that white Americans have stopped breeding. It’s an attempt at a self-fulfilling prophesy. There is no evidence at all here in country. The preschools and the maternity wards in the predominantly Caucasian areas of America are still thriving. Over in Europe, a lot of the schools and maternity wards have closed down because nobody’s making babies except the Islamist immigrants. And almost half of their babies are sickly and/or mentally defective due to cousin marriage inbreeding. And those children usually die young. Meanwhile, Caucasians in Europe are buying yappy little dogs and calling them their “babies”. Because unlike Americans, they’re afraid to make real babies.
The point is that the Republican party does not “reach out” to conservatives, because it can’t. All it can do is not try to block them at every turn, which it tries to do.
Who *can* reach out to conservatives are individual candidates who demonstrate that they have core values and stick to them. Nobody, literally nobody, ever votes for a candidate because of their ability to compromise their core values with someone who does not share those values.
The *failure* of Republican candidates is that they far too often come across as the woman before King Solomon, who was willing to take “half a baby”, cut in half with a sword. The conservatives want a candidate who loves the baby so much that they would rather lose it to another than have it destroyed, out of “compromise”.
Many of them are so mushy that even if they could have the whole baby, they still want to offer half, out of some weird notion of “fairness”.
But I was told over and over by northern non culture war types here it was southerners and Christian fundies who stayed. Home
There is no such thing as Reagan democrats anymore.

We enjoyed a phenomenally successful election in 2010 with strong Conservative support.
Then the NE establishment Republicans’ decided to make a hard left turn running a liberal Governor from the most liberal state in the Union, Massachusetts, for President causing millions of Republican voters to stay home, hurting Republicans all down the tickets.
You’re saying that that hard left turn was a mistake? Who knew or could have predicted that, except... everyone?
I thought this thread was going to be about omelette recipes.
