Denial

EVIDENTLY, there are still republican/conservatives out there who still don't get it. All you can do is try to help. Lead the horse to water, so to speak.

The question is, why did obama win, and the republicans lose, in general?  The theories put forth by republican pundits and politicians border of the ludicrous, or pathetic, depending on how you look at it. Its as if they simply refuse to accept reality, maybe because reality is too unpleasant to accept.

Obama won because he had an unstoppable ground game, a grass roots machine. Millions of unemployed welfare recipients overwhelming the nation with an avalanche of anti capitalistic propaganda.

Obama won because the democrat machine defined romney before mitt had a chance to define himself.  There are more americans who see themsleves as victims, deserving of any and all government handouts, than there are americans who work for a living, and that's why obama won.

Pretty crazy stuff. And all of it is a denial of the truth, and the truth is that obama won because there are more poor people than wealthy people in america, more lower middle class than upper middle class, more workers than managers and owners, more sheep than wolves, so to speak.

Both candidates and both parties had plenty of money, plenty of advertising, plenty of grass roots organization, plenty of everything.

Obama's message is more popular on the issues, and that's the last thing repcons (republican/conservatives) want to or are willing to accept.

Painfully, they'll move slowly towards the middle. They (the repcons) will have to, to survive.
