Where do you even begin in ripping this one apart?

What an idiot. He could have won 70% of the Hispanic vote and still lost the election. I guess he missed this revelation during his post-election stupor. The more he talks the more we learn what a flawed candidate was put up against the Marxist.

The reason he lost was his failure to outreach to the republican party. We all thought he was the democrat.

Hey, I’ve got an idea, let’s start taking advice from liberals.

Gov. Romney was the weakest possible candidate against Obama in particular.... for no other reason that Romneycare. He did attempt to explain that (state’s rights versus limited federalism, plus his promise to end Obamacare if elected President). But, it still was a very, very difficult sell ... a bit sophisticated for a mass audience, perhaps?

Even more fundamentally, perhaps, Romney did not do much with the key issues he had, issues millions of Americans were extremely concerned about... issues about Obama’s policies, attitudes, values, and yes basic identity too.

What kind of campaign is it that shies away from, barely even mentions, the opponent’s record in office?

This is even worse that McCain throwing his election by never questioning the lack of experience of his opponent in 2008.

I conclude that the R party has been deliberately “throwing” its election campaigns...

Romney lost when he failed to press an attack on Odumbo’s Benghazi disaster. He reveled has lack of a sack to millions of voters who stayed home.

Obama and Democrats were able to frame Romney as an out of touch plutocrat. With the eager assistance of the mass media. This lead to millions of guys sitting out the election. They were never going to vote for JugEars but they took a pass on Romney too

Women decide elections. Also, throw in that white males stayed home in 2012.

There are two groups of Hispanics. The first group, by and large, came here legally, works hard, pays taxes and doesn't put "Hispanic" at the center of their universe. It is part of their heritage in much the same way that Scott-Irish, English, German, Italian, etc. is part of the heritage of their fellow Americans. Accordingly, their concerns and voting behavior differ very little from that of their fellow Americans. They may appreciate a little outreach much like Americans of Irish descent may appreciate the local politicians marching in the St. Patrick's Day parade. But they don't look for "special" stuff because they don't need to-- they earn it.

The second group (which is growing larger and diluting the vote of the first group), not only wants but expects "special" stuff, namely free stuff paid for by the rest of us. They are led by La Raza, Maldef, the Democrat party and other brown KKK groups. Some of them may work hard until they find out it pays better to work the system like certain other better established ethnic groups whom it isn't polite to name.

IOW, they are always going to prefer a hard core Marxist like Obama over a soft-core socialist like Romney because they understand the Marxist will always give them more free stuff than the soft-core socialist.

It ain't rocket science and no amount of Hispandering by the soft-core socialist will ever change that.

I noticed that the day after the election the term “self deport” suddenly became politically incorrect.

Start with the fact that Obama got 10,000,000 less votes than the first time, but Romney couldn’t draw as many votes as McCain got. Nothing to do with Hispanics here. Just a lot of Republicans with RINO fatigue.

Ho, Mitt! What about the 4 million conservatives you failed to recognize and who failed to show up to vote for you? Stupid candidate/stupid handlers/loser.

The most politically tone-deaf Presidential candidate, ever.

This race was lost as soon as Zero’s ringer was nominated.
