IT HAD BEEN REPORTED HERE that according to mitt romney, obama won the election because he was given gifts by various minorities. We had it backward. Mitt actually suggested that obama won becuase of the gifts he, obama, is giving to the minorites. Sorry for the confusion.
Trying to sort through the logic and rationale of embittered, shell shocked conservatives can confuse one. But that seems to be the prevailing wisdom now; obama was reelected because he is perceived throughout minority/poor america as "anta claus", as rush limbaugh puts it.
The ironic thing is, these kinds of attitudes by republicans are precisely why obama won; republicans, adn republican candidates are perceived by millions of americans as being disdainful of poor people, and disdainful of all attempts to provide assistance for them.
Once again, a wealthy conservative republican blames the poor entirely for their own predicament, instead of allowing for even the remote possibility that prevailing social conditions play a factor in everyone's situation, and that we all, at least once, need help.
As long as the losers don't understand why they lost, they'll be losers.
