Another one via Bill Quick, that I think deserves a little attention.
National Review basically blames the entire Conservative grassroots for Mitt Romney’s loss:
The first thing conservatives should understand about the electoral catastrophe that just befell us — and it was a catastrophe — is that any explanation of it that centers on Mitt Romney is mistaken.
To which Bill Quick responds:
Because Mittens Romneycare was my preferred choice, and the first thing conservatives need to understand is that it is impossible that I could be mistaken.
Heh. I have to laugh. Good one Bill. 😀
Anyhow, Yes, I know; I voted for Romney. Because I was not about to vote for that other jackass, who won. However, I did not think that Mitt Romney was perfect candidate. Anyone who did think that Romney was the perfect candidate was absolutely crazy. Just like Bill said, Romneycare was his biggest problem, because of that and possibly because of bit of religious bigotry; the voter turnout was low this time around.
Plus too; I just believe that since Bush has left office, many people have just tuned politics out. I honestly do not believe people really care anymore. Except for maybe the politico types, like me, like Bill and the rest of us, who happen to run blogs and are addicted to this stuff. The rest of America just does not care anymore. I also think that the majority of Americans believe that both parties are so corrupted, that they honestly figure that no matter who you vote for, they are going to be corrupt.
Can we honestly change that? Probably not. Experience tells this 40-year-old geezer that most people have that idea set in their heads, and nothing anyone does will change that. The best thing that the Republican Establishment can do, is get off of the moderate, George W. Bush, Wilsonian stupidity and begin to embrace true Conservative values, and actually run someone who can win. Else, they can continue to get their tails kicked in the elections.
It is their choice, and hopefully, they make a wise one.
