(20,776 posts)Long term Republicans, thought the Romney's were not good for America. Seriously, how they appeared on Television acting as though they were entitled to be running this country.
People had to know this was not... going.. to happen. We all watched the debates. Ryan lying though his teeth was a huge thing here on DU. We know that Joe kicked Ryan's butt in that debate. Everyone knew it, and even Republicans were mostly silent on that debate.
But I think, deep down, everyone knew..that Romney Ryan was a poor ticket. I know some of us, were afraid that we would lose this election by fraud, but as for substance, the President knew his stuff, despite the idiots who were going to vote for Romney because they were still clinging to the notion that the President didn't have a legitimate birth Certificate.
Donald Trump and Orly Tates certainly didn't help the Romney's cause.
I do know about that attitude of which you speak. I have seen it also first hand, when I was living in Santa Barbara, an area rich with very Rich Republicans. It was there, I first Joined DEAN FOR AMERICA, when he was actively running.
