If you listen to right wing talk, not recommended, you will hear a mass of excuses all in denial of what actually happened.
Republican media - Fox and Friends say the following are the reasons.
1. People want free stuff - Things like social security how dare those old people.
2. Hurricane Sandy - I guess God wanted them to lose
3. Obama had a better campaign
4. The media was in the tank for Obama - that is ironic coming from faux news
5. They needed a hispanic on the ticket - yeah because hispanics only vote for hispanics
6. My favorite - Mitt was not conservative enough
They can't face the real reasons.
Their policies are not popular.
1. Privatizing social security - not popular
2. Medicare vouchers - not popular
3. Trickle down economics - Nobody bought the job creator crap
4. Govt. intruding on women's choice over their own body.
5. No plan for health care for the middle class.
This is why they lost, but they will never admit it.
To date, legislators have introduced 916 measures related to reproductive health and rights in the 49 legislatures that have convened their regular sessions. (Louisiana’s legislature will not convene until late April.) By the end of March, seven states had enacted 15 new laws on these issues, including provisions that:
Legitimate rape?
Women don't get pregnant from being raped?
I read and I know my issues.
Your party made me (and dozens of women that I know) into one issue voters.
See, the woman's body has a way to shut that whole thing down (the R party).
What's funny is that ALL of those "real reasons" you posted are due exclusively to the Democrats lies and distortions. None of those things are actually true.
The democrats have a fantastic marketing machine, though. We saw just how good it's become in the 2008 campaign, and they steamrolled right through the 2012 campaign. Tell a lie often enough and with enough flair, and you can get anyone to believe anything. Yesterday is undeniable proof.
Nonsense. Take the free stuff one. I have heard that on talk radio a half dozen times today.
I suspect it has little to do with the democratic marketing campaign...the Romney one was easily as good if not better.
A lot of it is shifting demographics. The right has to find sufficient appeal in the overall electorate to have a chance. And that likely means separation from the lunatic fringe...no more Sharron Angles.
I suspect the right is out of it now for at least the next 12 years. Obama than Clinton or someone. The right will get bashed and beaten and eventually reform. Probably lose control of the house in a massive demo victory if the economy turns as all the economists project...
Life if hard...you simply get killed if you try and run from either fringe.

Just what you'd expect from the "OMG, all the polls are skewed!"/"Democrat oversampling!"/"Huge enthusiasm gap in favor of Romney!" crowd...
How about the stock market took a giant s*** today.
How about Mayor Bloomberg won't sent in the National Guard with weapons to keep thugs at bay who are looting, robbing, breaking and entering...... and running wild in the streets.
More to come..........
I can't wait!
LOL! The DJIA is up 5000 points in Obama's term (over 60%, an excellent four-year-return), yet a one-day drop is supposed to be a damning indictment of Obama... LOL, you just can't make this stuff up!
