People hate to admit it but the reason Romney lost is the same reason McCain lost. He did not get down in the gutter with Obama. Obama spent a year claiming Romney hated women,hated non whites,hated old people,was a criminal,and a liar. For a year the MSM repeated these claims never once questioning them. Romney thought if he ran a noble clean campaign he would appeal to intelligent Americans. Mr. Romney that America does not exist and I don’t know if it ever has. Since the days of our Founding, politicians have attacked each other with lies and false truths and they have won. The whole clean campaign strategy wins is a lie forced on the Republicans by the MSM that supports Democrats.
Obama is an image of cool and intelligence created by the MSM. He is neither and there are a 1000 youtube videos to prove it. I saw not one Romney ad showing Obama throwing a baseball,bowling,or riding his bike looking like Forest Gump. I saw no ads with Rev. Wright,Huma Abedin,or Van Jones. I heard very little about the Benghazi slaughter. I heard nothing from Romney about Obama’s mentors,all radical anti US types. I heard nothing questioning Hillary Clintons competence and the role of her aide Human Abedin. I heard nothing about he bribes Obama took from Tony Rezco. I heard nothing of the Countrywide 6 or the Fast and Furious scandal.
When you see that Romney suffered from a low white vote turn out as well as getting less Republican votes than the dim witted McCain did, you have to wonder,what went wrong? I live in Houston Texas and until the last few days I never saw a Romney TV ad. Were Republicans spending too much time and money trying to woo the undecided vote rather than firing up their own base? I don’t know. We know there are many,more on the left, who do not like or trust Mormons. Was that the reason? Was it because Romney wasn’t socially conservative enough for the Religious Right? All questions that will take much more time to answer.
Since Obama and Clinton have proven people vote for style and image over substance,should Romney have put someone with conservative values who is not a pasty white man on the ticket? Every Republican woman who has come forward has been destroyed by the MSM. Every Black Republican has been trashed by MSM. This has led the Republican Party leadership to stay away from candidates whom the MSM have slandered and lied about. I love Paul Ryan and think he was the best person for the job,but its apparent people are not voting for what is best. They are voting for what they think is cool.
Another mistake that hurt Romney was when he did not forcefully challenge the lies of Candy Crowley and Obama concerning Benghazi. It made him appear to be the dishonest one when he has been right on this since the first time he spoke out on it.
There were also the two abortion gaffes by two republican outliers late in the election. Republicans, Abortion is the law of the land. We may hate it and oppose,but we can not impose our religious beliefs on the heathens ,excuse me, Democrats. Abort away. The more Liberals who choose abortion the better off we are as a society. The most any Republican should say about abortion is No Comment and it is the law of the land. Attention idiots and that includes the MSM,abortion is the law of the land,no one can change that or is trying to. Go for it, abort away.
The Republican position on Gay Marriage is also foolish. How can we as a society discriminate against gay people. As Kinky says why shouldn’t they be as miserable as the rest of us. I am not saying everyone has to condone homosexuality,just saying you can’t discriminate or force your religious beliefs on others. Thats what the Muslims do. Why are we doing it?
Trying to understand how the two best candidates either party has ever put forward lost is puzzling. They voted the for the guy who promised the free shit over the guy who promised to take it away may be simplistic but it is true. Have we reached that tipping our Founders warned us about where there are more in the cart than pulling the cart? If thats the case its game over.
