@gungasnake,
Judging from Florida where from my understanding, 30 million regularly vote in the presidential elections, less than one million voted for Romney, and he did not get the majority of votes totaling less than 3 million... He can claim victory; but HO and HUM got the majority of the votes they might have had... You can't beat something with nothing, and the Republicans got nothing; no vision, and no one legally blind to represent the limits of their vision... They want to turn back the hands of time... No one alive has done so yet... Even there their message suffers, because while they are right that America has seen its glory day come and gone, you can sell hope and anticipation at a premium where no one will be desparation at a discount... No product is what they have and that equals no sale...
