–Romney says president Bill Clinton called him after the election and said he might have won if not for Hurricane Sandy. Romney: “I spoke with president Clinton the day before yesterday, he called and spent thirty minutes chatting with me. He said a week out I thought you were going to win. And he said, but the hurricane happened, and it gave the president a chance to be presidential, and to look bipartisan, and you know he got a little more momentum, and of course he also said that when he was watching Ann speak at the Republican convention, he decided he was tempted to join the Republican Party. So he may have just been effusive with generous comments as he chatted.”

BULLSHOOT!
People keep repeating this erroneous info. They are still counting votes. Romney is probably going to end up with more votes than McCain. As of right now, Romney is trailing McCain's 2008 total by 655k.
“The stupidity of the populace is now so massive I don’t believe we can recover.”

You are exactly right, and I have posted as such.
America is nothing like the country that I grew up in, and I saw it falling before the Communist was emaculated.
It is no longer our father’s country.
I left before I had ever heard of Obumbo, moving first to Slovakia in Jan. 2005.
I have now been in the Philippines since Jan. 2009, where I will live out the rest of my few years.
Try listening to Mark Levin. His righteous anger is like a tonic.
Mitt never misses an opportunity to heap adulation and praise on Bill Clinton, does he? Or just to name-drop him.
Mitt should’ve built up such a big lead by the last week that a favorable event for Obama wouldn’t have tipped the scales. He also should have been able to firmly cement his support and not just have people leaning towards him or on the fence.
Rush, Laura and Levin are leading the charge to stop the RINOs from caving on immigration. They’re telling them how wrong they would be on every level to do that. They would alienate their base and not gain any votes from it. Sadly we’re back to fighting with each other over staying true to our basic principles, rather than having righteous anger over how dirty and dishonest the Dems were in this election, and formulating plans to beat them next time.
The count is not final yet and Romney is now tracking 700,000 votes behind McCain.
When all is said and done, he'll likely be slightly ahead of McCain.
It wasn't Sandy, though.
This is the standard boilerplate cover story, and they’re sticking to it.
Levin may help
McCain was running against Bush and a black Diety, and history.
Mitt was running against Jimmy Carter’s 2nd term, yet the GOP-e is trying to give the impression that they should be compared to each other as equal elections.
President for life, FDR, was tyranny.
Many nations faced the horrors of fascism and communism as they swept the globe, and America was not totally untouched by that, we did get an “El Presidente for Life” and all that he did to us.
Note to Mitt:
Frankly Mitt: first off, if you want to believe Bill Clinton on anything, no one can help you, and secondly, if Clinton’s idea makes you feel better, having found another scapegoat for your loss - a hurricane, then all it tells me is that you and your inner circle continue to NOT look yourselves in the mirror and see your own errors as the cause of your loss.
Even if you thought so, to say it to Romney just shows the level of classlessness.
No fraud cost Romney the election, and Clinton knows it.
OK, so now it’s -655k.
Romney STILL lost voters, at current count.
Maybe he’ll surpass McCain, maybe not.
But he wasn’t running against McCain and still couldn’t make up the difference.
I’m not completely blaming Romney. He fought a LONG, tough primary with a lot of debates. All that time, Obama and a sycophantic press were free to assault him and whoever else appeared to be in the lead. Media corruption, to be sure. Romney’s fault was not fighting back at every charge/ad at every opportunity. He was too focused on a primary that had simply too many candidiates and too many debates. In the end, the looked like a default selection.
More than anything, I blame the electorate. Either they fell for the cult of personality, the free stuff, or just can’t stop hating “old, rich, white guys”.
The liberals have a petition to have Austin stay in US if Texas secedes- How terribly clever they are/sarcasm
How is there so called petition going?
Austin reminds me what is happening in my state.
We have 3 big corrupt counties in FL, they cheat, they are lived in by not the natives lets say and they seem to not understand that they are part of this state even if they moved here from elsewhere.
Maybe those in Austinwith our corrupt 3 counties can all move to their liberal utopia up in the north east or the west coast minus San Diego.
I think Florida has a bunch of New Yorker snowbirds who vote Democrat in both states. I don't believe there will ever be legitimate elections again, that's why it's time to leave a government that has abandoned principle and the Constitution.
I grew up in Chicago and am familiar with Democrat voter fraud, destroying Republican ballots, manufacturing Democrat ballots after polls close which is why some heavily Democrat precients report later, no ID required,on and on...
