They should have a an election tonight for the least relevant former political strategist between Rove and Brazille.

There's also that Republican tit on CNN who did everything short of having a Corso moment by putting on a big Eyore head.

Nomination denied .... there's no way anyone can honestly tell me that, roles reversed, some schmuck on MSNBC wouldn't have done something quite similar in some vain attempt to keep an audience or otherwise piss and moan like spoiled little kids.

Not to say I'm defending his actions; just saying it isn't like he owns this sort of behavior.

That's the rub Headly, this move was pretty unprecedented. Also, the guy was financially invested in the outcome, so his questioning of the numbers rings pretty hollow. It's almost like he thought it was 2000 again and he could circumvent the process. At the time of his claims, Romney was also LOSING Virginia, Florida, Colorado and Nevada (I think). The best part is that nobody else on the set joined with him -- it seemed like a pretty awkward moment for everyone else on the set.

His meltdown last night was quite humorous. I'm not sure what he was trying to do except maybe create some sort of grand conspiracy and say that the media was calling the election too soon. It was obvious to everyone that it was over, and this guy was digging through tiny counties in Ohio and claiming the election wasn't over even when statisticians employed by Fox were telling him it was over. What a chode.

Has Rove said anything today? I have not seen him on any of the news shows or anything.

Dick Morris is a douche but at least he was out and about today owning up to his loss

I am still floored that Romney got even fewer votes than McCain did in 2008. How is that even possible.

I can guarantee there are people who didn't vote McCain, but voted Romney. There are even people that voted Obama that now voted Romney.

So, who are the millions of people that voted McCain, that didn't vote Romney? Could it really be, that all those votes in 2008 were actually votes for Palin? Really?

Or, to be a bit morbid, how much of the older Republican demographic died off in the last 4 years...


But really, what is the psychology of a right-leaning person for voting McCain but not Romney?

Christie/Rubio in 2016.

I didn't think Romney was a terrible candidate, I thought he was a better candidate than McCain.

IMO if the GOP has any hope of winning in 2016 they better find a way to rally around Rubio. He seems to be the only person right now that would have a shot of winning. I think Romney very well may have won had he picked Rubio. I thought Christie could be that guy as well, but I have a feeling that the whole Sandy/Obama deal may hurt him too much for that.

BTW Rove shows up in a WSJ op-ed today. Essentially claiming Obama ran a dirty race with his "Chicago Way."

Romney was a terrible candidate.

If in 2008, I said that in order to beat Obama in 2012, we need a rich older white man who runs a capital firm that specialized in creating profit by strangling companies and is from a religion that only really helps in one state you'd have laughed at me.

I had to do a ton of convincing to myself that Romney was better than Obama.

Also, incumbents have a huge advantage. If they were running the same election today, I think McCain would have had a good chance of winning. George Washington wouldn't have beaten Obama in 2008.

I would be very happy with that, but you don't think the whole Sandy deal is going to hurt him?
