Romney was 10x better presidential material than Rubio (as well as most of the GOP field) but he got his ass kicked by free Obama's handouts.
The only hope for a Republican to win the WH is to have Comrade Bernie as the D candidate; people will be too afraid of him (I hope) taking the country too far to the Left. Clinton Media Machine will run right over any GOP choice. If they can't win fair and square they will cheat.
Sure Romney was. But what really kicked Romney's ass was the Republicans that didn't like him refusing to show up at the polls to vote as a "silent protest" and thus handing the election to BHO.
We are headed down the same path again. Cruz is not electable, neither is Rubio. And yes, Trump falls into that category as well. So if (insert name here) actually gets the nomination, are the Republicans going to do another 2012 and put another democrat in the WH?
