no... like in 2012
try again.
rightwingnuts can't win a general election.
1. Romney was not a wingnut, he was moderate. So was Mcain. So, if moderates can't win, better move right. The only candidate that can win faaar out is on the left. Look at Obama, he is closer to a socialist then socialists from 20 years. That is probably why Sanders thinks he has a chance, he is just slightly further left than Obama, and Obama won a 2nd term against a moderate!
2. To believe that Hispanic Americans want free flowing people from over the border is ridiculous. I am Hispanic American, and I want it shut down 25 years ago.
3. You can't win an election; nobody can, if people won't vote for what is good for them, or against what is bad for them.
a. Is illegal immigration good for anyone besides the illegal or the chamber of commerce? ANSWER, NO!
b. Who does illegal immigration hurt the most? Poor people, African American teenagers, and American business owners who are in the construction business.
4. A conservative doesn't need 60% of the white vote. Why? Because if the nominee is Hilly, African Americans won't vote for her, and if she isn't, who is going to vote as an American for an avowed Socialist?
5. More than 1% of the vote isn't legal, that is exactly why democrats fight tooth and nail to stop voter ID. It has not as much to do with the Hispanic vote, as it does with big city voting where people who are dead, magically vote.
In the end, it is going to come down to who wins the republican nomination, and has less to do with who wins the democrat nomination. The democrat will win if Jeb, Trump, Huckabee, Santorum win the nomination. If Cruz, Walker, Carson, win the nomination, the democrat loses. If Paul wins the nomination, you have to lean democrat 51/49, but could go either way. Rubio is the BEST chance for the repubs to win, but he and Jeb are Hilly lite. Why elect someone to keep the status quo until a democrat can get elected again, and roll us towards oblivion?
Why he is he the best chance? Not because he galvanizes republicans, that is for sure; it is because he is Hispanic and leans towards amnesty and no fence. He will get a large % of Hispanics, and take lots of them from the Democrats. Still, if illegal immigration is a high priority for you, (as it is for over 60% of Americans) Rubio is NOT your person in the primary for sure.
Romney was a moderate when he was governor of Massachusetts. He did not run as a moderate. He ran to appease the right and supported lunacy like personhood laws and refused to support the Lilly Ledbetter law. and spewed winger nonsense to satisfy the "base" of loons. he went so far winger as to disavow his own health care plan.
your other garbage about more than 1% of the vote not being legal is winger nonsense.
women didn't support romney because he took the side of the radical religious right
minorities wouldn't vote for romney because he bought into the rightwing rhetoric hook line and sinker
and young people wouldn't vote for a candidate who, again, took on the rightwingnut rhetoric
No offense Jillian, but that is ridiculous.
1. Both Mcain and Romney were moderates. The reason you see them as so far right, is because the democrats have moved so far left. If Obama was JFK or even Clinton, we wouldn't even be having this conversation. Hell, JFK would probably be a republican today, which should tell you how far the democrats have gone off the reservation. And oh, by the way, Reagan was a democrat for many, many years when they actually were for the little guy instead of socialism.
2. As far as the vote totals, you can't prove a negative, so I won't even try. But, you would think that insuring the integrity of the vote would be on both parties agenda. Sadly, it is not. Oh, by the way, do you know who created the pol tax? That is correct, the DEMOCRATS; and it was enforced by none other than the Klu-Klux-Klan, which was a wing of the democratic party. Are you surprised?
3. As far as minorities not buying into Romney because of his "wingedness," why should anyone be surprised! If Hilly gives you a dollar every year, and I say I will take it away, who does anyone think you would vote for? In the old days, we call that buying votes. Today, you use redefined words and call it compassion.
4. The young people voted the way they did because they were lied too. Look at what the pols say now, and you will see the young people who are now in their mid 20s have changed their tune a lot. And why shouldn't they! All the money being borrowed, the bill is going to be left to them and the people behind them, some who can not even vote yet.
The real problem with young people lies with their parents. (myself included) We send our children off to liberal indoctrination at some of these schools, and pay through the nose for it. And we all know that young people believe they are invincible, and know everything; especially if they went to college. And what do they know? Why everything some left wing hack taught them, like Obamas buddy the terrorist prof, Ayers..........with the help of his wife, the other terrorist, Bernadine Dorn. (if you don't know what they did, look it up)
And oh, by the way, just as a simple question...............do you actually know what a community organizer does, and how they do it? Look it up and understand people like YOU elected one to the Presidency. Once you understand their methods, you will realize if you have any smarts, why socially what comes out of the Whitehouse, is what it is. He is doing EXACTLY what he was taught, and people like you are falling for it, hook, line, and sinker!
