“And then you’re going to blame the GOP for your little temper tantrum.”
The GOP deserves blame for nominating a leftist and then telling us we must vote for their leftist because he is just a little bit better than the other party’s leftist.
No thanks
The candidates nominate themselves... and we, the card-carrying GOP members vote for them in the primaries.
We all need to look in the mirror for this fiasco. There is no friggin’ conspiracy about it. Sure the GOP elite love Romney, but they ain’t the sum total of the primary voters.
Too many ‘conservatives’ were looking for the second coming of Jesus for their candidate (ie: were looking for the perfect candidate) but couldn’t find one. So they flitted from one candidate to another like bees looking for pollen.
Face it, the GOP primary voters were too d@#n fickle this time; and now, instead of settling for half a loaf in an imperfect candidate (Bachmann, Perry, Cain, Newt)... we have to choose between Rick “I’m running for Pope!” Santorum or Mitt “Obama” Romney.
Some friggin’ choice.
(And based on the results, it looks like the average Republican primary voter really isn’t sold on the idea of Pope Santorum. A good 20-40% are, depending on the state... but not a majority.
And the same goes for Mitt ‘Obama’ Romney.
In other words, now that the party’s over, the GOP voter is looking at the mess they created and crying bitter tears.
