Why Romney lost

[the mojo]

Hey! Fresh off the wire! News Flash! Apple is opening a manufacturing plant in the USA! Companies are coming back under President Obama to build product here, with our labor force! Haven't seen that posted anywhere yet on this site.

Thank you, thank you very much.

Yes Apple and oranges and bananas are going to save America. Kind of like the addition of 100 new jobs at Masterlock in Milwaukee right.

Three days prior to that visit by Joe Bama,Frontier Airlines announced 451 layoffs in Milwaukee.

The Facts:

1.The city was Cleveland not Philadelphia

2. The number of 100% precincts was 16 not 100

3. No evidence of voter fraud has been found




Sour grapes.

Check again my sneering one: it was 59 precincts in Philly. One reported 116% voter turnout.

Unemployment 7.7 - lowest in 4 years.
146,000 jobs created.

I know, I know ... it is not good enough, the numbers are cooked and conservative values are the only reason things are getting better.

Funny, very funny. Perhaps you haven't heard of the uncounted extra 15 to 20% who don't even bother looking for work and are off the gird. No unemployment insurance, living with someone else, etc.

Yeah the economy is so great their salty that even Mexicans are going back home to look for work. Ah don't you just love the Marxist utopia our beloved commie Prsident is taking us to. Thank you, thank you very much

Just reporting the facts Glenn. I find it interesting that the only time conservatives want to count the down on their luck is when they want to poke at gains made by progressives - otherwise they are just scum and takers not makers.

Let's assume the numbers are accurate; the numbers always go down during the holiday season regardless of which party is in charge. A more realistic gauge will emerge in January/ February.

I predict this will be a turning point... the silent majority do not like this.

Yes, but isn't that Bush's fault?

Romney didnt loose anything, the people that gave us those two candidates didnt care which won, they had both in their pockets.

Thats why Ron Paul was ignored and marginalized, he was not for sale.

Exactly. And look what is happening now, a little glimpse of what life with Romney would have been like. Remember when Romney said he wanted to close tax loopholes (in other words he wanted to raise taxes on people). That's what the Republican party is pushing to do right now. Boehner even ousted good, fiscally conservative republicans from financial committees in order to get this accomplished. Tea Party candidates are not welcome according to the old republicans like Boehner. Romney's politics were the same way. He was not a conservative. He was not someone who would have stood his ground to protect conservative principles. He wanted to raise taxes and Republican sheep praised him for it because he wanted to do it in a dishonest way. He was someone who signed an assault rifle ban in his home state! He was the author of the Obamacare model! How was that guy ever nominated or even seriously considered?

And don't try to tell me his tax plan was in any way different from Romney's. Even IF Romney kept tax revenue the same which he CLAIMED was his intent, all that would have amounted to would be shifting the tax burden from one group of people to another, the same thing Obama wanted to do. The guy was a joke! Republicans need to wake up to these flip-flopping gun-grabbing RHINO candidates and stop blindly supporting hacks with an R after their name like lemmings.

Folks get what they vote for... democracy is not the best system. When we learn that... we may do better.

Romney may not be your ideal conservative, he is no alien anti American communist. Can never compare the two in my humble opinion. Thank you very much

IMO: If BHO is all that great... lets see if the economy TRULY grows on a sustainable basis each month and quarter and year for the next 4 years. If it does... well us conservatives are wrong. If it does not... well you liberals are wrong.

Care to put one's pride and honor at ARP into a provable wager?
