When you don’t respond to lies IMMEDIATELY AND FORCEFULLY with your own ads, you are a bad candidate. Mitt Romney is a filthy rich millionare who had the money to blow away Obama with ads of his own. He chose to turn into Mr. Niceguy exactly the same way McShame did and lost the election. He let the communist bastard democrats define him and cowered down like a dog. He had three debates to look Obamagabe square in the face and ask him did he believe all the lies and bs that was coming from the democrats. He never mentioned the negative ads. Till the day comes that the GOP nominates a man with some balls that will not take crap off lying ass democrats, they will never win another election. Moderates hell. Nominate a conservative with balls.
I agree. Romney had a ton of ammunition - if he had only chosen to use it. His campaign was the opportunity to inform the public of those things about which the MSM was covering Obama. He should have been trumpeting Benghazi, Fast and Furious, Obama’s questionable cadre of people that he’s surrounded himself and a number of other things. People don’t hear about that stuff. Even my Republican co-workers - I work in a Republican office - don’t know about these, or very little. Romney would have made a good president, but he blew it.

Yep, No fire in the belly. Never had his “I paid for this microphone” moment. No guts. No glory.
I’m going to reject that analysis.
Romney did respond to the ads, it’s just the mainstream media refused to PLAY the responses. Watching the evening news shows, every cut allowed was Romney RESPONDING to something about Obama for two seconds. That’s it...
We can register all the people in the world, but it won’t mnatter if we can’t get the messages out above the din created by an ENEMY MEDIA...
I doubt he would have won either, but I don’t doubt that Newt would have stood up to Obama, exposed his lies, questioned his handling of Benghazi and F&F, explained to the American people what effect Obamacare and the taxageddon would have on them, and challenged Obama over and over again.
