I don't know what I'd do if he were to run again. Throwing myself in front of a bus comes to mind.
Demographics are destiny. Romney would have won if the population looked like it did in Reagan’s time. But that’s not today’s reality. And while there may have still barely been enough white people in the United States in 2012 to elect a GOP president, Romney wasn’t an energizing enough candidate to pull off the required perfect storm of suburban and exurban turnout - that needed to happen in the face of a tidal wave of media negative coverage.
Sure he did. Karl Rove loved him. So did Paul Ryan when his turn came.
That makes it plural.
Oh, puh-leeeeeeeeze. Romney agrees in principle with the entire twisted, government-nanny anti-free-market philosophy that is the foundation of Obamacare!!!!
It is just one example of the vast hypocrisy and insidious deceit in this article and in Romney's entire career. He says one thing, and DOES another. Idiots like the author of this article are blind to that truth.
Romney is a vampire -- he needs a stake driven through his political heart, and THE ONLY WAY TO MAKE THAT HAPPEN is to desert the Republican party. I have been registered in the Republican party since 1976, and I faithfully voted for its candidates from 1976 until 2012, when the party had the insane gall to ask me to vote against ALL of my own and America's moral and fiscal interests by "supporting" the placement of government-advancing tyrannical amoral (pro homosexual agenda, pro tax-funded abortion, pro environmental tyranny, pro nationalized health care) Romney in the White House. Voting for Romney would have been every single bit as nuts as voting for Obama. EVERY SINGLE BIT AS NUTS.
The Republican party, however, is completely oblivious to the fact that Romney is the antithesis of EVERYTHING I have been voting Republican for more than 35 years to oppose. As long as guys like Romney are tolerated, let alone promoted in in the Republican party, then the Republican party is the wrong party for me and the wrong party for America.
That is small consolation for losing to Obama because of a poorly run campaign.
Too bad the republicans spent most of the last presidential campaign fighting over Sandra Fluke and free condoms instead of driving home the truth about Obama:
His nonstop lies, wasting $900 billion in stimulus money by handing it over to his pals, bowing to his muslim rulers, stealing the equity from GM dealers and stockholders to give to his union buds, his multiple unconstitutional acts, Obamacare, Obamacare, Obamacare.....
The list is practically endles.
But republicans let democrats dictate the campaign agenda and they treated Obama the criminal with kid gloves.
Absolutely false.
Then you are woefully ignorant of the man Romney. You don't have to be one to worship sodomy, and Romney was a sodomy worshiper. He pledged to sodomize the Boy Scouts years ago. He performed a same-sex "wedding" in Massachusetts after he improperly implemented what the legislature would not. He is all for sodomizing our military, and we would have gotten the same result with Romney as with Obama.
And his pathetic response to a question as to his thoughts on the Chick-fil-A Day demonstration? "That's not part of this campaign."
Sorry, Romney was as leftist as Obama on this issue. He is the Father of Same-sex "Marriage" in this country.
Someone please tell me that this article is a joke. Romney says whatever it is politically expedient for him to say depending on who is audience is. As a result, he’s bound to be accidentally right now and again.
problem was he was a candidate that really did not care about becoming president... he probably would’ve been a very good president...
I rest my case.
A state mandate versus a federal mandate.
Still don't see the difference? One can move out of a state when one disagrees with the state's policies and laws and remain in the USA. What are your options when you don't agree with the federal government's policies and laws?
Not saying I think RomneyCare was a good idea even for my neighbors to the south, but I do think that different states having different policies is a very good thing.
That’s it. It was his blatant dishonesty. He pushed abortion for his entire adult life. Pushed gay rights. Pushed mandated big government healthcare. Pushed liberal judges. Refused to fight for conservatives or conservatism. Then he suddenly claimed he reversed positions on everything, yet he continued flip-flopping on his signature accomplishment. Big Government RomneyCare. He is as dishonest as they come. Will say or do whatever he thinks he has to say or do to get elected. When he stands smiling angelically on a stage bragging about his conservative credentials, he has “LIAR!” written in big bold red letters across his forehead.
He is an insult to conservatism.
Total fraud. Total loser.
By the way,in the debates when asked to list his conservative accomplishments his list had two items. Saved the Olympics, got married and raised a family. Most of what he accomplished as governor was liberal so he drew a blank.
The Republican party, however, is completely oblivious to the fact that Romney is the antithesis of EVERYTHING I have been voting Republican for more than 35 years to oppose.
I just recently dropped my republican voter registration.
Romney’s ex-aides were in the room with 0bama designing 0bamaCare.
Romney COULDN’T attack 0bama’s greatest weakness BECAUSE ROMNEY WAS IT’S INTELLECTUAL FATHER.
Still don’t see the issue?
Conservatives do not push anti-free enterprise, anti-liberty big government mandated programs at any level of government.
Personally, I would HATE seeing the Republican party be responsible for nationalized health care, forced social acceptance of open homosexuality, more and more environmental strangulation of energy and food production (a Republican created the EPA, after all), and public funding of abortion.
If Mitt and Ann were in the WH right now, THAT IS WHAT WOULD BE HAPPENING under the REPUBLICAN banner.
I am glad Romney lost, I thank Almighty God that Romney lost, and the fact that conservative freedom-loving Americans were smart enough and righteous enough to reject the false promise and genuine THREAT, both moral and financial, that Romney represented, is a true sign of hope. We had the MORALITY to reject this amoral person even at the price of having to deal with an equally amoral DEMOCRAT doing the same.
More like worshippers.
Not actually true, so far as I can tell.
