Among Republicans, I mean. We'll hear the usual BS about the Liberal Media rigging polls, Bussed in Homeless People, Voter Intimidation by Scary Black Guys, etc. etc.

Frank Rich says the Republicans will do what they've always done: Blame it on not being Conservative Enough.

I think the Evangelicals will blame the Heretic Mormons. I think the Big Business Republicans will blame the Evangelicals for not supporting a Republican enough because he was a Mormon.

What do YOU think?

He should say that O. is trying to buy poor people's votes.

He did, this is why you lost.

He either didn't offend stupid libs enough or there is too many stupid libs which are offended.

I prefer more meat and believe that it is always better to be on the offensive than defensive. He should always adjust to the level of his opponent. Romney was just too nice and too gentleman to play with dirty Alinsky'ans tactics. Generally to be gentleman is a good thing but here it was useless.

The 47% is mostly retirees and military, not welfare queens.

Fabricated outrage. It is obamaphones and welfare recipients.

ROFLMAO , too nice. oh my!!! hahahaha

The guy is a corporate shark. A destroyer of worlds. A Gordon Gekko leverage buy out prince.

Seriously, this guy enriched himself at the expense of 1000's of workers. He was involved in multiple unethical barely legals SCAMS! even one against his own CHURCH. He eluded to this in his acceptance speech.

You have no idea who this guys is.

Wake up!

He makes Gordon Gekko look like Mahatma Gandhi!

Also DATA! You see Obama is the DATA king. He collected it and will pass it down, your side has jack shit.

Are you saying they are going to bus people systematically and block after block in urban areas to poling stations forever?

Then it has to be the next black charismatic candidate, maybe Michelle?

Oh gosh we are screwed!!!

27   121212   2012 Dec 28, 6:05am  

How large is your IRA, not $100 Million?

Like Bishop Mittens

Considering the legal yearly contribution is $6700

How do you think his IRA got so large?

He took PEOPLE PENSIONS!!!

It's what BAIN DOES BEST!

Nope, it was the Rethugs who gerrymandered all the House districts, they were the ones with over 1 Million less votes and still able to steal the House!

Your racism is showing!

29   121212   2012 Dec 28, 6:08am  

Also it helps to have a GROUND GAME, you cannot rely solely on $$$$$ and TV.

ROMNEY HAD SHIT! He has 3000 people in Florida and lost and only another 700/800 nationwide.

Well Done.

That anti-Romney propaganda reached you too. The best thing was that he is a businessman not the academia guy. He knows how the real world works. This was the biggest the most important factor for me to vote for the guy.

Take it easy, maybe I'm black :)
I don't like O. politics, not his skin color, however the second factor was the major one for all blacks to vote. Who's racism was showing where in some districts 100% voted Obama?

I believe that TeaParty people would organize themselves again. However, they should exclude religious fanatics and all get together, Constitutionalists, Libertarians, Conservatives, maybe even create a stronger third party. Maybe someone charismatic emerges and would be able to bit up progressives and leftists cooks.

Yes, more takers than makers, that what I stated earlier differently.

34   Tenpoundbass   2012 Dec 28, 6:32am  

These third parties should ditch the notion of a single third party. There just isn't one, there are 100's of other parties. But not one damn one of them have the political clout to make a dent. In closed primaries states, nobody can even effective legally nominate them. Unless they are registered as "Green Party" or "Tea Party" or "This Party" or "That Party".
I think all alternate parties need to coalesce in demanding an end to closed primaries, and focus on running cross parties, depending on the party more leaning to their ideology or the party they could best "FIX". The "Third Party" is going to decide who gets nominated in both Liberal and Republican parties going forward.

As for registered Voters you should be registered to Vote, and that would be that. You get one vote in the Primaries and one Vote in the General election. What party you are in, should not be anyone's damn business especially not the election board.

You really are a clown. The groups you want to come together have nothing in common. The Tea Party is going to cost this country it's Credit Rating and destroy the GOP. Thank You for that.

38   121212   2012 Dec 28, 6:47am  

The Tea Party is a massive joke.

39   121212   2012 Dec 28, 6:55am  

Kevin says

Fucking morons. This is why there won't be a republican president for a very long time.

They don't get it. Help me out. I'm trying to explain it.

The Tea Party is dead. The idiot 40 or so House Tea Partiers are considering IDIOTS! by the GOP House Members.

Nobody is taking Rand Paul seriously and Alan West, well he doesn't need and words.

40   121212   2012 Dec 28, 6:56am

That's an OXYMORON!

Seriosuly, listen, this is why you lost.

He doesn't know how the real world works and the 53% majority of LIBS as you call them, voted against him as they believed his 47% comments made him look out of touch. Trust me he had many flaws one of them was BEING MITT ROMNEY.

44   121212   2012 Dec 28, 7:02am

You mean like the anti Obama propaganda the right spewed for 3 1/2yrs?

We could make a substantial list here, from Mitch McConnell to Benghazi, how did that propaganda work for you?

So don't cry about Mittens he was Pathetic. Anyone else would have been better, even Herman Cain, Newt, Trump! lol

45   121212   2012 Dec 28, 7:05am  

Overall GraooGra you comments and politics are garbage. Perhaps it's because you have NO LEADERS! Stop eating yourselves and move FORWARD with the rest of the USA.

Leveraged buyouts are not "the real world". Real businessmen make useful products and services.

Mitt Romney was simply a throwaway candidate. The GOP knew that they had no chance of winning this election so they threw out some random schmuck that they wouldn't actually want to win anyway.

They're happy to control the house (thanks to gerrymandering) and state legislatures. They'll let the dems control the whitehouse so that they can have a target for their idiot constituents' ire.

Bush got a larger percentage of the Mormon vote!

Did you see the election day figures? or you don't like math?

It doesn't matter. Hillary is going to be an unimpressive dinosaur 4 years from now.

You are really orwellian. Destroyer of 'Pensions and jobs', sorry pensions are thing of the past, unsustainable and reorganizing corporations so they are economically sound sometimes requries reorganizing and letting some employees go.

You dems are really reactionary right now. You hold on to unsustainable social programs, try just to kick the can down the road instead of making some substantial systematic changes. Romney/Ryan at least have had some program to fix these entitlements, cut spending. Obama was sleeping and Biden was only laughing and saying "no, don't let them mess up with your guarrantee program". You know what, it is finally going to blow up in your face. Then maybe more people would understand and see for themselves. Now you were not ready yet to see that. Future would create bigger and better opposition to dems than you think right now. Laugh as long as it lasts. "The last ones would be the first and the first will be last".

51   nope   2012 Dec 28, 2:13pm  

The Romney/Ryan plan to 'fix' entitlements was to let old people die.

Do you have a way to NOT let old people die? Have you defeated old age? I thought tax and death are the only certainties in life.

I'm all for people over the age of 65 dying. Starting with MIttens.

54   Peter P   2012 Dec 28, 2:48pm  

I am a huge supporter of universal healthcare, but end-of-life care needs to be looked at. Perhaps individuals past a certain age should pay for such care out-of-pocket?

Lie and propaganda. They wanted to keep the current programs for people over 55 years old and make substantial changes for younger people. I know I'm paying to SS which I never see when I retire or it won't look like it suppose to. It is a complete waist of my money and money of my employer.

56   StuckinSoPA   2012 Dec 29, 2:11am  

Obamaphones?

Try Bushphones.

The program started about 10 years ago under W. TracFone Wireless, out of Miami, Fla, runs the program which provides one hour (usually) a month free phone service for needy people. Not paid for or supported by taxpayer dollars!

Families don't want to pull that plug on granny. It shouldn't be a decision made by the government either.

58   GraooGra   2012 Dec 29, 2:35am  

APOCALYPSEFUCK is Shostakovich says

Romney was simply not conservative enough and needed to get back to old fashioned values, say, by declaring himself pharaoh and demanding that Obama be thrown into a volcano and driving around the country and jerking off into grain silos. Then people would understand his commitment to traditional values.

They say he was 'a moderate' republican or RINO. He still believed in the bigger government than libertarians or conservatives. Progressives called them flip-flopper. I think he was rather pragmatist, than ideologue. Some say he was 'Mr. Fix-it" too much. I don't know, he was fine to me. I prefer CEO type over any lawyer or 'community organizer'.

Oh my, did you see the GOP 2012 primaries. Or perhaps the 2008 GOP primaries.

John McCain was how old?
Mitt Romney is how old?
Newt, Herman, Ron Paul, HOW OLD?

You should quit while your taking it from behind GraooGra , as usual.

Lies and propaganda from whom? The Republicans.

I take it you disagree with the NUN's on the road?

Of course you do.

Actually everyone would have been affected by Ryans BULLSHIT Voucher program and a defunding of Medicare.GraooGra says

SS, It is a complete waist of my money and money of my employer.

Maybe you would prefer Bush to have privatized SSl in 2006 and have lost it all in the 2008 crash. Remember that!

What a short memory fools have. It must make it easier voting for these idiots.GraooGra says

Families don't want to pull that plug on granny. It shouldn't be a decision made by the government either.

And neither should trans vaginal ultra sounds or banning abortions with bullshit regulations created to close abortion clinics but that didn't stop your party doing it 1100 times.

You picked two words Romney wouldn't use for himself.

What parallel universe do you exist in?

Corporations are people my friend.

Romney, Im Pro Choice and Pro Life depending on which election I am running in.
(hows that for ideology)

I'm for Gays "until" I run in a Republican race!

Pragmatist, PLEASE!

You make yourself look pathetic with these obviously failed arguments.
