Since Romney got more independents than McCain, doesn’t that lead to the inevitable conclusion that the next Republican nominee needs to be even more liberal, you know, to attract even more independents?
No. Romney won the Independent vote because he was not Obama. It was the Nobama vote.
If Mitt Romney had won, we would not be facing this tidal wave of illegals, we would not have ISIS . We would not have Ebola in the US and we would not have Putin moving against Eastern Europe. A President Rand Paul would not have prevented any of those things.
