hate adn divisiveness is the purview of liberals. Liberals act out hate and divisiveness on a daily basis then blame republicans for it.
we call that noise. It is a lie. It is typical of people who know their ideas cannot carry the day.
however if you care to point out some examples of conservative hate and divisiveness i would be glad to exchange posts on the subject.
cuz i can go all day with examples of liberals haters. |

I don't have years enough to bring up examples of republican hatred. It's all around us though. |

Two ways the Republicans could've won.
1. Innovative ideas
2. Forming a clear, consistant message to showcase innovative ideas.

I agree totally. He should have been the nominee, period and still seems to be the best candidate for 2012. If he had been the nominee, we possibly would have won. Him being the VP choice would have helped but I am not sure it would have been enough. McCain was too threatened by Romney's intelligence to ever pick him. |

Rep did win in 2008.
We got Obama and a dem controlled congress!
That is a lineup that will end liberalism in America for a long, long time.
A gift from above was the election of Obama with this horrific congress lead by Pelosi and Reid. A total gift!
Perfect timing to match them together as the country completely falls apart they will be blamed for it all.
Remember that the large majority of Americans have conservative values.
They are watching this group of misfits spend us into debt we will never be able to pay back.

I don't think I can buy this one: The Morman issue would have hurt him, like it did in the primaries. Right or wrong, many people just can't accept the religion. Hopefully someday this will change. The same is true with Huckabee.
As for the interllence thing, you could be right there, but when it comes to running for Pres. it takes more than intelligence to be electable. I think this showed when Forbes tried to run several years ago. Romney is very bright, but lacks the charisma it takes to be a good candidate. Again, my view only.

Had McCain picked a better VP like Kay Bailey Hutchinson he wouldn't of lost Indiana or North Carolina and he would have had a much better chance in Ohio, Florida and Colorado

He's Mormon. That's too controversial for most people. |
