Quote of the Day
"If I hear anybody say it was because Romney wasn't conservative enough I'm going to go nuts. We're not losing 95% of African-Americans and two-thirds of Hispanics and voters under 30 because we're not being hard-ass enough."

-- Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-SC), quoted by Politico, saying that demographics would be the only reason for a hypothetical Mitt Romney loss Tuesday.

4. I'm trying to figure out what "hard-ass" and "conservative" have in common

That's part of the Republic party right there, they can't define themselves because they don't know the definitions of words.

I agree with Graham though, Mittens only started doing well nationally (outside his base) when he became Moderate Mitt. And as many others on DU have said, the Republic party will confuse Mittens' loss with him being too moderate. So they'll go even further right and Lindsey Graham will end up looking liberal in comparison.

5. So their measure of success is how much minorities and young people

hate them? Interesting admission.

6. Sure is. And is he conceding for mittwitt already?

7. "the talent-rich ranks of current Republican governors"

The point of the Republican Party is to fashion a message system that keeps the oil companies in power. Other crony capitalists will be favored, also.

Abortion and foreign intervention still seems to be working for those bastards.
