“Let’s stop blaming Romney or the GOPe.”
I am merely stating facts - one cannot win without the base and too many of them did not vote for him - they skipped that line. We had millions less votes than we did in 2008 and indicates too many of the base rejected Romney. The same thing will happen in 2016 if the GOPe promotes another liberal.
OK. It could also signal a demographic shift and a need to form coalitions with like minded minorities. Peel just a few percents away and Romney would have won.
My point is that the blame-game resolves nothing and moves the locus of control away from us. Is our message too harsh? Mourdock and Akin lost while Romney won.
How can we package conservatism so that people who have been indoctrinated by their school and media get it?
