How Romney Blew An Easily Winnable Race

By The Drive-By Pundit / Americna Thinker

I’ve learned the that worst way to console a friend grieving a recent disappointment or loss is by showering him with uplifting biblical verses and sugary platitudes.

People with fresh emotional wounds aren’t open to flowery words of encouragement and can even respond in anger or resentment to your well-meaning efforts. Grieving people need a little time to decompress and work through their dark thoughts and emotions. At the onset of grief, what works best for me goes along the lines of “Bartender, another double-Scotch, straight up, for my friend here. And keep ‘em coming.” A sad country song playing in the background always seems to help a bit, too.

I think I speak for many of my friends on the right when I say: “To all of you trying to cheer our side up — please stop. We appreciate your efforts and concerns, but you’re not helping any. It’s not yet the time. No one’s in the mood to hear that crap right now.”

If you’re angry, sad, disappointed, shocked, and full of grief in the wake of the election results, you have good reason to be. If not — you’re not paying close enough attention. Tuesday evening was a disaster for the future of our nation, but it was something I have been eventually expecting.

I admit I was clearly wrong about who was going to win Tuesday’s election. However, I was correct when I wrote in a Sept. 28, 2002 American Thinker article of my growing pessimism about the future electoral prospects of the Republican Party. They’re dismal. The GOP has allowed itself to be seen as too white, too old, too rich, and too suburban. Sadly, there’s a lot of truth in that perception. It’s not a winning formula in a nation that’s becoming rapidly of color and full of people who are taught unchecked that someone else is responsible for paying for their housing, health care, groceries, ObamaPhone, and other bills.
