Top Romney Aide: We Could Have Done Better Job With Women, Latinos (well, duh!)



PEMA LEVY 7:43 AM EST, THURSDAY NOVEMBER 29, 2012

Stuart Stevens, chief strategist for the Romney campaign, said that looking back, the campaign should have done a better job reaching out to women and Latino voters, during an appearance on "CBS This Morning" Thursday.

"I think we should have done a better job reaching out to women voters, the governor has a great record on women's issues," Stevens said, responding to a question about what the campaign should have done differently. "We should have done a better job articulating that record. We should have done a better job reaching out to Hispanic voters. We should have done it earlier. And in a more effective way. And looking forward those are questions for the party. I think we have a very good message there. We just have to do a better job with it."

in fact, I think they should rebouble their efforts. Maybe they can draft Rush Limbaugh for 2016?

Have they written off blacks for the foreseeable future? I think they are still whistling when they single out women and HIspanics. Also Asians and Pacific Islanders? Where do these people rank on their metric? The REthugs are a party full of shit!
