It appeared last night that even Obama was shocked that he won a second term. Today, much of the mainstream media has little to say. It seems that they were more prepared for a Romney win. So out the window went their moaning, whining, blame-game prepared scripts. And in came the ad-lib, try-to-look humble, do-not giggle analysis.
In the meantime, the Republican Party is looking around for someone to blame. But like when you stub your toe at home alone and look around for someone to blame and find that there is no one to blame but yourself, the Republican Party can only blame itself.
The Republican Party was not looking where it was going. Its eyes were so set on getting into the White House that it did not care how it got there. And as a result, it walked right into something obstructing its path, a thing called “liberalism.”
The Republican Party chose a liberal candidate and tried to pass him off as a Ronald Reagan to conservatives and a Bill Clinton to Liberals. But the fact is, a rhino cannot be passed off as an elephant, and neither can it be passed off as a donkey, no matter how hard one tries. As a result, not enough conservatives bought into the sham of Romney being a true conservative, while not enough liberals saw him to be liberal enough.
But here is the good news
The good news is that it is quite possible that the Republican Party will have learned its lesson come 2016. Perhaps the Republican Party will leave the running of a liberal candidate to the Democrat Party and instead give the people of America a real choice in 2016 by running a real conservative in that election. Perhaps it will run a conservative candidate who will defend the U.S. Constitution and has a history of such, one who has the truth in him and dares to speak it, one who could win people over because he has something truly better to offer to this great nation.
Let us hope that the Republican Party has learned from this. Let us hope.

I agree. Hopefully the Republican party will be able to generate a true conservative the next election.
Thank you, FreedomFight500… It would be great if the Republican party next time gives a true conservative to vote for.
I feel much of Obama’s win has to do with fraud, lies, dirty politics and the in the tank media for him. Remember the voting machines were tampered with, the black panthers were back, letters of ineligibility to vote sent to all republicans, early voting before the lst debate, etc. It’s hard to fight corruption. Obama’s teleprompter talks with a forked tongue. It casts a spell on the uninformed and they believe his. He lies and then swears by it.
mzha1942, all that you say here is true. It’s all the more reason for a true conservative to be ran next time by the Republicans.

mzha1942: I agree w/you..he got there by fraud..the ‘fix’ was in on this election before anyone went to the polls. When you have 30,000 showing up for one candidate and 1200 for the other….something is rotten in Denmark….You will never make me believe the election was not ‘fixed’. So where do we go from here…no value in pointing fingers…learn from the mistakes. 4 more years of Obozo will ruin our country…they are already beginning the Jarrett ‘get even’ mantra. Let’s begin to clean out the Senate in our next election. I have no intention of fighting for ‘me’, but fighting for my country.
you are right ! Romney was perfect for the job……. He is honorable, and the DEMs run an ugly and dirty campaign …. Someone with honor does not go that direction …… WE HAVE SO MANY IN THIS ADMINISTRATION THAT ARE SO CORRUPT….. ALL I CAN SAY TO THEM WHO VOTED FOR OBAMA, IS “GOOD LUCK WITH YOUR FUTURE UNDER OBAMA”……. ” YOU THINK HIS FIRST TERM IS A MESS JUST WAIT FOR THIS ONE …..IF THEY VOTED FOR OBAMA THEY BETTER NOT COME CRYING TO ANYONE ! “
Romney couldn’t compete with an open checkbook to buy votes, cellphones, free government subsidies, food stamps, free medical to minorities (legal and illegal), government bailouts to car companies and banks, all paid for by “we the peoples’ taxes”. Now, we the middle class will be hit with more taxes on what little income we have left from underemployment to part time jobs paying minimum wages, a new 3.8% tax on selling your home, and so many more taxes that are totally mind blowing.
So to say that the RNC missed it with minorities to me is a total fallicy and simply UNTRUE. Look at the real picture. I remember seeing one interview on Fox News that took place (in Cincinnati, Ohio, I believe) where a minority woman said: “Obama bought me a cellphone, I will vote for Obama”. That said volumes to me for sure. Actually every single American that has a cellphone or a land line actually are mandated to pay for her cellphone in a special fee on our bills that “we the people” bought for her and thousands and thousands of others. But Obama gets the credit??? Go figure that one out.
So again I will state: “it wasn’t Romney/Ryan’s lack of connecting with any particular group, it was because Obama set this whole scenario up for ANY future contender to begin to even compete or win against him.” The scuttlebutt that I have seen these last few months is that Obama will have three terms. Yup, now I see that as a possibility based on his “buying votes” with “We the peoples forced taxation in a backroom Bill” and thats just a start, that is going to devastate the middle class who is paying for that woman’s free ride as well as millions of others, and Obama is taking the credit. Look at the total picture PLEASE.
I almost forgot to mention the “BIG” give away by Obama…the Amnesty to illegal’s which goes against Federal Law. Now, I got a little upset when I heard last night Fox News telling the public that the Republican’s need to address their ignoring the hispanic voters. How can any contender deal with a “buyoff” by the current administration? This is a NO BRAINER and I may be just a common overtaxed middle class citizen of these United States but I am not stupid.
Obama expected to win this election from the get go (that is why he was M.I.A at the first debate) because he knew he stacked the deck/votes prior to the election due to all of the chips he collected last night, legally and possibly illegally. You make note, again I state: Obama will go a third term and because he now will stack the same chips in two or three seats with the retiring Justices. Our Constitution will be a thing of the past. Our Bill of Rights was destroyed last March, 2012.
So, listen up everybody it is only going to deteriorate for God loving Christians and anyone that dares to express their personal feelings against this administration and to be able to continue to fly the original flag of these United States not something revised by “O”. How disrespectful can it get? Very!!!
Maybe we could see a real American hero named Alan West on the ballot…
Yes, AuntieFran413! Alan West would be a great choice!
I am just praying there will still BE a Constitution in 2016.
Amen, greylady68! I will be praying for that too!
Ior one would love Allen West to be in the running. He is a person who is not afraid to speak up and say what is needed at the time. He also knows what he is talking about and he is a member of the military unlike the ones we had running this time. How can you be in charge of something you know nothing about. Allen is a leader and would do the country a great justice. I hope we still have a country in 2016 after this imposter is done with us. I also believe he should be held responsible for the Benghazi incident and pay for the lives he allowed to be taken that day. In my book, he is guilty of murder and should be tried for treason because of it. I pray that justice be done in this case to give the families the correct closure for them.
Great comment, stags43…
I don’t believe for one minute that the media was stunned by Obama being re-elected, after all it was their doing. If they had report the events from Sept. 11 truthfully and all the other wrong that have been done, I don’t think Obama would have won the election. The media has a job to do, it’s to report the news as it happens and to do it without a bias opinion. If anyone is to blame it is the media.
The mainstream media certainly tried to help Obama, Kiblet. Yes. But I still think they thought they’d lost.
and by 2016 Elephants will be able to fly!!!!
Time to disband the Republican Party and organize a CONSERVATIVE party based on Constitutional Principles for our Government. The GOP continues to push us LEFT and that is the WRONG direction!!
There’s an idea, KuhnKat!

If the so-called Conservatives stayed home because they didn’t believe that Romney was conservative enough, they are all guilty of betraying our country.. By their arrogance and stupidity “They” allowed a Muslim to stay in office. Now tell me, what is worse? A person “they” determine is not Conservative enough for their votes, or sitting back on their butts and allowing a Muslim traitor to stay in office? Where were the 14 million voters who voted four years ago? Were they all Conservatives or were they also Evangelicals? Evangelicals who wouldn’t vote for a Mormon, but like their “Conservative” brothers preferred to have a Muslim as their “dear leader” rather than a Mormon? I believe they are just as guilty of treason as that Muslim now in control of our country. As to an election in 2016….forget it.. There won’t be any. By the time this Muslin- in-chief gets through with his plan to destroy this nation, there won’t be any more elections…as lest not for President. Our only hope now is to pray to the Lord to forgive this nation for turning its back against Him, so that He will remove this miscreant from office now and forever and everyone who protected him along with him. The country didn’t turn its back against Him really? Take a good look at what is going on in television, the despicable actions of so many of our young people, the gimme, gimme, gimme, crowd who believes everyone owes them something. The anti-Christian war being fought against Christians, with the Muslim-in-Chief’s approval,. the bowing down to Islam, turning the face of the Lord against the wall or covering it up so as not to “insult” the Muslims, allowing the Islamic flag to fly over the Capitol, instead of our Flag. And to top it off, the Democrats removing God from their platform. (It took three tries to put Him back in, but the crowd still yelled “NO”, no matter what the Chairman said.) If you think He isn’t watching, think again! It isn’t nice to get the Lord angry at us. He has more power than we will ever have, no matter what we humans think!
Patriot1776… You go from blasting Evangelicals who would not vote for a Mormon (an antichrist), to complaining that people have turned their backs on God. –Do you at all see your contradiction?
