		<description><![CDATA[&lt;blockquote&gt; He could only be viewed as not different enough from Obama by people who were dumb or stupid imo. What other reason could there be? One man was an American of strong moral character and the other was a communist thug with an administration made of of ideological and union thugs.
Anyone who could not see a difference is…dumb. Don’t shoot the messenger.&lt;/blockquote&gt;
Your opinion is pretty piss poor and very limited in scope as is your view of what was going on. You are effectively a 1960&#039;s super computer compared to what is needed apparently to see the whole landscape which would be a 2000s super computer. You got stuck inside the Romney bubble and cannot for the life of you get outside of it. You are no free thinker and certainly not willing to look at facts as they come to you.

Most people do not follow the news, the news gets about 30% total of the viewership as say Jersey Shore and Jersey shore does not get half the population watching it. Yes, those people are uninformed, but not certainly stupid. Lazy, but not necessarily morons. Not super patriotic, but not inhuman. Not engaged, and this is the important part, but not so far disengaged that they cannot be become engaged by someone who reaches out to them because they are happy with and excited about a candidate running for president. But, by attacking them the way you are in these threads, you do make them immune to any of your potential persuasions. 

They never looked, they just simply do not care. Obama, Romney, Bush, Clinton, Bush, who cares, we get the same crap anyways. Bush brought on the economic collapse that Obama benefited from, that is just simply a fact. No Maxine Water and Barney Frank a f^cking low level retard in the House, the House did not stop Bush from fixing the housing bubble, that was a political and traitorous choice Bush made on his OWN. What they are doing is avoiding politics, because they already got the point that it does not matter. But if their friend comes over and asks them to go to the polls they sometimes will go along and vote for your dude.

&lt;blockquote&gt;
&lt;blockquote&gt;    Attack them relentlessly for 9 months, then expect them to get out the vote for you, who is the delusional one?
&lt;/blockquote&gt;
Who attacked them?? Not Romney. It was the left attacking tradional values as being held by throwbacks to the 50′s who shouldn’t be taken seriously.
That they did not defend themselves is not Romneys fault.

Mimzey on November 22, 2012 at 5:18 PM&lt;/blockquote&gt;
No, it was you and your allies of sycophantic nut cases attacking them. They did defend themselves, they distanced themselves from you.

I guess when you say the electorate failed, you might be right. You are the one so intent on getting Romney elected, it should have been you getting say 60 to 100 of your disengaged friends to the polls. Not your engaged friends, the ones that were disengaged and I know you have that many people accessible to you. You are right, Romney is not wholly to blame, it is YOU and your allies. He was your candidate, you get the &lt;strong&gt;stupid &lt;/strong&gt;people to the polls, that was the job you volunteer for wanting Romney to win. Since you did not do your job, now you want to cast aspersions on someone else. Now I think I know where you need to defend Romney comes from...

Failure!]]></description>

It seems you read a lot into things.

No one I know is claiming Romney is an Infallible god.

My position is that he is not a communist.
That should have been enough incentive to get people to vote for him.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[&lt;blockquote&gt;Your reading comprehension seems to be very low.
He was not significantly viewed as different enough than Obama for many people to care to vote.
Proof? Vote totals.
Call them dumb and stupid, then expect them to back you. Who is the dumb and stupid one there?
Attack them relentlessly for 9 months, then expect them to get out the vote for you, who is the delusional one?

The last two debates Romney expressly did his best to be Obama, agreeing left and right with the President. It was like Watching Cain debate Newt!

I voted for the turd, so... there is that.

it is all accademic, and yet you and your friends are still here arguing that Romney is a god and infallible, it was the people who failed us.

Well, DUH, they have been failing us for as long as there has been a two party system. That is just how it goes.

Romney did a worse job of getting people to the voting booth than McCain did. With a billion dollars, double McCains money he had a worse GOTV effort, a worse advertising record, and was less known than McCain in the end, easily framed by the enemy. I do not call that competent. You can defend him from now until you die, it will never change the facts. Even if it is found out that Obama won due to voter fraud, it was still Romney&#039;s job to have poll watchers to ensure it did not happen, and if it was the case, yet more FAILURE.

Romney was a loser in January, February, march, April, May, June, July, August, September, October he had a moment to shine, then quickly faded back to his leftist self, and particularly where it counts, November. Due to his asking for the job, fighting viciously to get the opportunity to for the job and knocking down several other good choices for the job, when he got the job, his heart just was no longer in it. Not willing to take the fight he gave to supposed allies to the enemy. Not willing to define himself properly. Not willing to cater to his base enough to get them excited. Not willing to give up on loving his Romneycare albatross in order to look sincere a little bit. Yeah, I am sorry, but the blame does land on Romney&#039;s shoulders, as the saying goes, the buck stops here. You and him should man up and let the blame go to where it naturally belongs, the captain of the ship. Instead, it is all the crew&#039;s fault, not because the captain did not know what he was doing.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[&lt;blockquote&gt;It is Romney’s fault. You drank too much coolaid and are not even remotely viewing anything in an honest way. We pick our candidates in order to sway the voters, other wise we should have picked Perry or Newt or Bachmann, all far better people for fixing the problems of the nation than Obama or Romney. Romney was picked for us because he was the guy who was supposed to be able to get the votes to win. It was expressly his job to make it happen. He failed, that is his own fault.

astonerii on November 22, 2012 at 4:48 PM&lt;/blockquote&gt;

I&#039;m going to guess that you don&#039;t realize it, but you&#039;re advocating the same line of &quot;reasoning&quot; that has the GOP stating that we must move to the left in order to attract the voters.

The problem is not offering more &quot;gifts&quot; to the conservatives to win their vote. The numb voters have to wake up to the situation that the country is in.
That said, it&#039;s all academic at this point...the most important election to the Republic is over..we lost and the country is lost. All you purists and 3rd partiers and lazy numbnuts, sold your country for a song and will acted shocked when you see what 4 more years of a communist will do to your life.]]></description>
