Americans really wish they had elected Mitt Romney instead of Obama

Americans are so down on President Obama at the moment that, if they could do the 2012 election all over again, they'd overwhelmingly back the former Massachusetts governor's bid. That's just one finding in a brutal CNN poll, released Sunday, which shows Romney topping Obama in a re-election rematch by a whopping nine-point margin, 53 percent to 44 percent. That's an even larger spread than CNN found in November, when a survey had Romney winning a redo 49 percent to 45 percent.

That may have been Mitt’s response when asked at that moment. The campaign season, which nowadays can last for two or almost three years is an emotional rollercoaster. Romney is only human, so it’s not surprising he may pretend that he ‘didn’t want it anyway’ in an effort to hide the immense disappointment, hurt and anger; all so-called negative qualites, not tolerated from president or wanna-be president either.

Yes. I would vote for him again. No, I would not stay at home to ‘teach the GOP a lesson’. They never learn that way. Hold back on party contributions unless you get commitments. That is how they learn to reshape their behavior. It;s like dealing with teenagers; don’t spend too much time moralizing, get them where it hurts, in the wallet.

America did elect Romney, if you take back the dead votes and voter fraud by democrats Romney did win the election, as Stalin once said, “it isn’t about who votes, it’s about who counts the votes.”

Mitt is a socialist almost as bad a Obama.
I wouldn’t want him any more than Obama.

If Romney had wanted to win, he could have won. But he’s a heavily conflicted liberal who just can’t in good conscious go against The Black Man.

I’m not sure anyone objects to re-posting a story that might have been overlooked.

The annoying part is an every hour or two re-posting of a story linked to by a popular site like Drudge. Or the case of some lame Hollywood movie that ended up with about 40(!) different threads.

And, by the way, the CNN Romney do-over poll has been posted before:

Hardly a big deal.

2012 was my last holding my nose for the Republican election.

I am not voting for another RINO again. I don't care if Obama gets a 3rd term.

What difference, at this point, does it make?

Right. If Romney had won, the same poll would find Americans wished they had voted for 0.

Even that useless scumbag Albright is starting to feel the impending storm. And she’s scared.

I don’t think there is anyone anywhere who isn’t delusional who doesn’t smell Hell coming at us.

I hate RINOs like Romney yet,

I see no honor in anyone who wouldn’t make the swap today.

...shows Romney topping Obama in a re-election rematch by a whopping nine-point margin, 53 percent to 44 percent.

Trouble is....voter fraud is good for 12-point margin. Romney would lose again.

Please Mitt, go golfing with BHO, or work on your 1-year food hoard.

Mitt would have been a better President but worse for conservatism in the long run.

I still couldn't vote for him.
