Romney didn't lose so much as Obama won. America wants a centrist, and Obama delivered.
Still hanging on to your false reality I see. Enjoy thew next four years moron.
Mitt Romney won the white vote handily, 58 to 40 percent, the biggest lead for a Republican since 1988. If white women had stayed in Romney's camp, those swing states -- Ohio, Wisconsin, Pennsylvania, New Hampshire -- might have moved into his column. Instead, Obama led among women by 12 points, nearly identical to his lead among women four years ago.

Romney lost because the only thing he consistently stood for was greed and personal ambition. Beyond that, he had no apparent moral foundation whatsoever. In my book it made him completely unsuitable as a potential President. We had no idea who we would be electing.
Republicans passed up a few candidates that would have put a pretty good smackdown on Obama and we were left with our poison pill.
Romney lost because nothing sticks to this president. People give him the benefit of the doubt.
Agree, though more specifically, their primary process is too heavily dominated by right wing extremists. Potentially good candidates are either rejected outright, or have to lie their asses off during the primary campaign to pander to the nutter fringe ... which then makes them damaged goods in the actual election. The Republican party needs a good enema to flush those fringe elements out of the party, or at least out of positions of influence. Until they do, I think they're going to struggle to remain relevant.True, but that's actually a symptom and not the underlying problem.
The underlying problem is that the Republican Party is too right-wing. Romney's fraudulence was an attempt to balance the extremism of the GOP with the need to try to win people in the center.
It's not going to get any better for them until they recognize this. They will either end up with moderates that disillusion the base, or "extreme conservatives" who are unelectable, or phonies like Romney who try to be both and get seen through.
lulz. Damn your posts are shitty. Newt? GTFO.
You'd never be like " now Mitt Romney is a dude I'd like to have a beer with"
team rape was, apparently, not as strong as it thought it was.
Romney just wasn't a good enough candidate.
Too many lies and too many stupid comments, each sucking a little of the wind out of his sails.
The last lie about Jeep was too big and too close to the election for him to obscure it. And you could argue all you want about the ad being "factually correct" but since it came on the heals of him actually saying Jeep was moving production to China, too many people saw it as trying to perpetuate a lie. And even though his other obvious lies didn't seem to garner too much punishment, for some people, a light went on when they finally recognized a pattern.
I voted for Obama not because I thought Romney would not be able to lead the country better than Obama but rather because of the kind of voters that supported Romney. The crazies on the far right scared me so much that if Jesus came alive again to run as their candidate I would have to vote against him too.
Romney lost because he believes in some false made up deity, while Obama believes in the true messiah, Jesus. Same reason why the Aztecs got wiped out by the Spanish.
He didn't win because he doesn't have his own Chia Pet.
Fox is already saying Romney wasn't conservative enough.
