    he was wrong about one thing though: the GOTV operation. And it cost him the election.

    romney would have been a splendid president to finally collapse the banking system, and bring in single-payer though (through force of bad policy), I do have to admit. Hey, this current one's not doing THAT badly at that.

    If McCain and Sarah had been elected the world would be perfect right now.

    Where would Republicans be without youtube, photoshop, and talk radio?

    In the 50's right where they want to be. ;)

    I too often think back to the Romney landslide I perfectly conjured, until well, it didn't happen.

    but I blustered and blustered and then it turns out Nate Silver and math defeated me :(

    Romney would have been much better than Obama, but that's not saying much

    Well, if Gore would have won, we'd probably have at least 2,000+ of our American brothers and sisters still alive.

    The video perfectly sums it up. Those of us with executive leadership experience could tell that Obama was deceptive and full of promises that he could not keep. We saw a figure that the media promoted into a cult phenomenon unjustly. All rational judgment of Obama's experience, record and promises was suspended, or even worse, branded as racist. Naive promise after naive promise was offered up to the lowest information voting pool in American history, and the lowest information voters within this pool (poor minorities, youth, single women) were the bedrock of his voting support. These people were in no position to evaluate whether Obama could deliver and make good on his promises. They were too busy blindly lusting for him.

    The intelligent among us knew that Obama was getting away with lies and false promises. We also knew that Romney had everything a great nation would want in a President -- executive leadership experience as a businessman and governor, successful results in leading the Winter Olympics, working in a bi-partisan fashion in Massachusetts, being a leader on healthcare (!)...

    The American people obviously chose wrong. Once again, they chose godless celebrity over godly character. And what we're witnessing is the predictable result.

    Speaking of being deceptive this post which claims Obama received overly positive media coverage is completely untrue.

    This is discussing his 2008 coverage, but you can look at other years or even overall coverage if you wish.
    http://fair.org/extra-online-articles/the-myth-of-pro-obama-media-bias/.

    That story is kind of long, but it goes into pretty good detail about the myth you're spreading here, and how it isn't true.

    Also you aren't in any position to claim that Obama is a godless celebrity and lacks in godly character.

    Romney was busted lying time and time again during the campaign. Thank goodness he wasn't elected.
