... and why he was such a totally unmotivating bore on the campaign trail. He didn't want to be our President in the first place.

He may not have really wanted the job but thought it was our best chance of getting Obummer out of office. I think he did better that any of the other hopefulls could have. :)

If a guy who doesn't want the job and can't beat a guy with historically low polling numbers was "the best" the GOP could do, then maybe they need to keep it to themselves for a while.

I can think of a host of people that would have been better than Willard and who actually wanted the job.

I always thought out of all the candidates in the primary Gingrich wanted it the most. He wold not have been someone I would pick if someone asked me who I want for president but. I though he had the best chance against Obummer in the debates.

The concept of debates is a farce. It is merely big media candy for a fat and ignorant couch potato society.

He pulled the trigger on Binladen. Kept the economy from going down the toilet. Most importantly, look at where the VA was in GWs reign and where it is now! He may not be your favorite color but let a few rays of reality in......

wl, it only takes a lil time for some idiot to fall back on the race card--you're convinced BO did so well. Great, I really don't see it especially with the nonsense you posted.

I figured it was the obamaphones but, not wanting the office would also do it. As for the crack on not being the favorite color, im sick and tired of rectums throwing the race card on the table when there is nothing said about race. His policys are going to hurt our great country and some would take that statement and use his race to discount my way of thinking by saying you are a racist so you will find fault in anything he does.

Romney lost because once again it has been found out that the majority of people don't get fooled by the lies that money buys & so far it's been proven that you can't buy a Presidency.

Bingo! Saying now, after getting his A** handed to him, that he didn't really want to be President is a bit sour grapes wouldn't you say. ;) I wonder how the wealthy donors who gave him bazillions of dollars for the campaign feel about that statement!

Guys,

As always when playing "cards" one frequently throws a sacrificial offering on the table to find out just what the other guys are holding. My card ,alas, was played in error as I can plainly see from the response that race was not a factor in your dislike of the president ,rather it was a well thought out and substantiated list of grievances
