So, tell me, who stayed home in McCain's case? Then, tell me, how did Romney get just about the same number of votes as McCain if Conservatives stayed home?
The big drop off was from "W" to McCain. That's where we lost the Colon Pow vote ~ and they weren't all black guys ~ they were who they were ~ and that's the crowd who walked out on Barry Goldwater!@ They walked out again and voted for Obamagoober in 2008.
This, BTW, is how cohesive factions slip from one major coalition party to another. We just lost a whole big bunch of non-professional GOP-e types in the McCain vote. They solidified their adherence to Democrat treachery and treason in the 2008 vote. They ain't comin' back.
This is one of the major reasons why Romney, who was depending on GOP-e foot soldiers, ended up without foot soldiers for his campaign ~ whenever it was supposed to begin.
That 4 million voter loss from "W" to McCain to Romney was about 6.25% of our expected fieldable voting strength. I've been estimating the GOP-e as, at most, 15% of Republican numbers, but this experience strongly suggests we've lost nearly half of them already and only have 8.75% more and we will be rid of them.
I'd guess about now they are starting to demand a seat at the table from the unions ~ whoops, I mean the DNC!!!
Hidden in the quantum noise we may have picked up 4 million black voters. Notice that Obama's numbers dropped from 2008 to 2012 ~ they went somewhere. Let's say that's black voters fed up with this posseur's BS and they slipped back over to the Republican column like they did before 1964 ~ JFK only got 75% of the black vote BTW ~ we got the others.
So they lied in exit interviews, but black voters could have easily protested the Obama failure to come to grip with their problems.
If Romney actually got those 4 million voters, we may well have lost all the other Rockefeller Republicans to the Democrats, so then we don't need to worry about them, and the lingering group of professional GOP-e's simply have no voting strength behind them!
That 4 million black vote would be a full 25% of black voting strength ~ and in critical areas. Maybe as the others figure out we have redistricted to give black people more guaranteed black Congressmen and members of state legislatures, we can pick them up and move back to the pre-Roosevelt 45% to 60% black voting strength that was historically ours.
The Democrats will be slow to recognize that their enticement of the hispanics to their banner has driven away the blacks.
“I said to him, “Your troops are most of them old, decayed serving men and tapsters and such kind of fellows. …You must get men of a spirit that are likely to go as far as they[10] will go, or you will be beaten still.” It may not be easy to find these men. They can be found only by trial and by ruthlessly discarding all who fail and have their failings discovered. We are fighting to-day for our life, for our liberty, for our all; we cannot go on being led as we are. I have quoted certain words of Oliver Cromwell. I will quote certain other words. I do it with great reluctance, because I am speaking of those who are old friends and associates of mine, but they are words which, I think, are applicable to the present situation. This is what Cromwell said to the Long Parliament when he thought it was no longer fit to conduct the affairs of the nation: “You have sat too long here for any good you have been doing. Depart, I say, and let us have done with you. In the name of God, go”
- Leo Amery, speaking in the debate that resulted in Chamberlain’s replacement by Churchill in 1940.
The Republicans will be beaten still, until there are leaders who intend to stand for something (and something other than pork, trying to out-Democrat the Democrats, and be all things to all people while simultaneously being nothing) and are willing to fight- putting principle foremost, and willing to denounce their enemies as exactly that- enemies.

IS?? What does he mean IS?? The party of STUPID is done. Best example is it took Boehner four years to make the statement he thinks Obama is out to destroy the Republican party...
FOUR years for this A$$hat to realize that. Geeeze
Yeah the party of Stupid IS dead.
Name me one principle that the GOPe will fight and die for. Immigration, abortion, gay marriage, gun rights, the debt, taxes, social security reform, tax reform, healthcare.
The difference is that the GOPe will not stand up for any thing anymore, but these libtards will fight to the death for any of these issues.
Until the party decides to stand for something, Anything? they only stand for trying to win elections. Rubio sold his soul to McBlame and and Lindsey for what. Border security first. Think this bunch of idiots on the left will wait 10 years to secure the border? Once they get the shadow people out in the sunlight, this Country will never secure another inch of the border. Its 1986 all over again, and McLame will get to vote for another Immigration reform bill.
Name me one principle that the GOPe will fight and die for.Keeping conservatives out of power.

Simpler answer.
Conservatives have left the republican party in 2008 with the nomination of McCain.
They ain’t coming back. That’s the crucial 6, 7 percent of the party that determines which way the wind goes. They pull their support - the republicans lose - they come in and turn out, Republicans win. Same as it always was.
Nominate a conservative and we’ll be wondering “why was this so hard?”
Just for your information.......might want to read what Levin said about Newt
Republicans must remember that Gingrich was the first GOP speaker of the House in almost 50 years, Levin said. “He was fighting Democrats to win the House of Representatives before most of the people trashing him on the Internet were old enough to wipe themselves ... before most of the commentators on TV were switching from Democrats to Republicans.”
It’s OK to criticize Gingrich, Levin said. “But don’t count me among those who are going to destroy the man,” he continued. “You can disagree with the man on substance, but don’t turn him into some Marxist, Reagan-hating mental case, because he’s not.”
Levin is particularly angry with New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie, an aggressive Romney supporter. “I was appalled when the two-year governor of New Jersey, who has done absolutely zero for the conservative movement, gets on TV and regurgitates all the ethical bull crap thrown at Newt Gingrich when he was speaker of the House.”
There's your answer ~ the godless, soulless, atheist, homosexualist, double-dealer, kneejerk, robotlike, kneejerk crowd who imagine they run the Republican party ABANDONED IT
That was the greatest mid-term defection in history ~ most analysts have used that as an upper limit to the Conservative vote assuming all Conservatives chose that as an opportunity to show displeasure. Actually, that was just the hard-core Christian vote who concern themselves with such matters in politics ~ there are about 17 million of thems. The other 9 million were simply voters who prefer to not vote in anything but the presidential race.
The fall off from W to McCain is no where near the 17 million hard core serious minded Christian numbers ~ it's just 4 million. That's the Republican left.
What does the GOP stand for? Tax cuts? That’s the only thing they have pushed for decades. On every other issue they have caved and bowed to leftist demands. No principles=no support.
The new conservatives like Rubio and Cruz better watch it. Especially Rubio, the crosshairs are on him now. Notice how he is the early favorite for 2016. The RINOs and Commies have made a backroom pact to triangulate him and take him out by pushing immigration. They know Rubio will cave and support amnesty in the end and his viability will be gone.
If he doesn’t cooperate the RINOs will work with the Commies to paint Rubio as an extremist so much that he loses his next reelection bid. And that’s how the game works. Destroy the nationalist conservative opposition so we the Democans can maintain our power hold on the status quo.
Newt needs to gracefully recede from the stage a la Dick Cheney.
He’s too erratic to be an effective conservative spokesman.
IMO.
As a reminder......Newt Gingrich was the ONLY primary candidate to get a standing ovation during the debates, which unfortunately brought the GOP GHOULS out to assist Romney in a sleazy campaign. Newt Gingrich is the most articulate conservative politician in America. Newt Gingrich is far from erratic, it just takes an intelligent person to keep up with him.
...it just takes an intelligent person to keep up with him.You've outed me.
Rofl
I fear you are right. The Party won the House because of the Tea Party movement. Instead of embracing these newcomers, the part chieftains fought to keep them from leading positions. They had their lineup for 2012, and even to win, they were not going to accept a conservative candidate.
We have a winner, exactly. Time for a real party that has conservative values in mind, not guys like Rubio who are so easily fooled by McBlAME. Honestly as Rubio cries foul today, why would anyone think that the dems would agree to wait until the border is secure before placing the shadow people in the short line? The only people in the shadows are fair skinned red haired folks who cannot be in the sun. I saw 25 shadow people building 2 houses today and you can bet they were not doing it for $3.00/hr. Time to call these idiots on their bluff.
So, will there be a “special” Hannity TV show that will cover this?
