1. The Republicans will claim he was too liberal to win. nt

[Gidney N Cloyd]

2. A private citizen running for president in 2016.

3. He will be riding up and down his car elevator, muttering to himself

Wondering where it all went so wrong. He thought money could buy the Presidency. Either that or pushing another daughter-in-law to the ground in order to win another family foot race.

What a hero.

4. an "investor"

[Agnosticsherbet]

5. Historical data tends ot show he will be the scapegoat.

The man they nominated, because a majority of primary voters considered him a soft centrist most likely to be Obama will be called
"to liberal for America," and they will bemoan the idea that if they just nominated a real Conservative he would have been elected in a 50 state landslide. They blame losses in 2006 and 2008 on "not being conservative enough." They credit wins in 2010 for being "true to Conservative values."

There is a dark side, in that if Romney should win, even if it is through blatant theft, it will be proof that Americans want their most right wing radical policy choices enacted within the first 100 days.

This will be even more true if Republicans keep the House and take the Senate. Any victory is because Americans want Radical Right Wing Governance. Any loss is because they weren't Conservative enough.
