I could have stood it, my feelings wouldn't have been hurt if the post-constitutional character, the sheer disregard for the rule of law, the out-of-control spending going back to 2007 with Dem takeover of both houses, and the Obama incompetent/mendacious foreign/military policy were to have been made issues by Mr. Romney.<br />But, at the end of the day, his campaign was perfectly adequate. If a majority of purportedly American voters can look upon four years of Obama/Reid/Pelosi, and ask for four more is a sign that things are pretty far gone, electorate beyond hope. Not that the Republicans can't win future elections, but as for fiscal/cultural/constitutional preserving it's going to be one step forward for every three or four back.peter brushnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9069955.post-6385939565808841372012-11-09T15:14:33.373-05:002012-11-09T15:14:33.373-05:00Hear, hear!
