I did not know that, thought he worked on his own.

Makes perfect sense though.

And those of us who supported him before the election got a shit storm thrown at us.
Haven't seen any of those morons tho opposed Nates calculations admit they were wrong.
Everyone of them said landslide Rmoney and that we would be made fun of after the election because of the stupid predictions.

Where are all those ignorant haters now?

Those predictions were based on Republican voters showing up to vote.
Romney got 3 million less votes than McCain did in '08.
If the base had shown up, the race would have been much tighter.
A lot of people are taking a stand on not wanting a moderate as the nominee EVERY 4 years.
There have been issues with the party's primary process.

Ahh..so that's it, the base didn't show up to vote. But Rove said it was the hurricane, Hannity said it was because Romney was too honest and nice, and Rush said it was because of voter fraud....which was it?

UncleBuck · Nov 8, 2012

all those skewed polls underestimated the democratic turnout, just like the republicans were saying all along.

now, where did NLXSK and beenthere and muyloco go? they were all predicting landslide. muyloco was talking about a 10 point lead in the polls for romney.

here, muyloco. here boy! be a good little bitch and come here.

ChesusRice · Nov 9, 2012

Republican voters did show up
Unfortunatly so did the Democrat voters

Anytime voter participation is high. Democrats win

There is PROOF that the base didn't show up to vote. It wasn't an opinion retard. But OK, drop names to defend the facts.
It must be fun living in a world where logic has no meaning, and where reason is not a factor.

"Is this just math that you do as a Republican to make yourself feel better or is this real?"

That unskewed polls guy cracks me up the most. How embarrassing.

The best part is the name "unskewed polls", cause he literally went and skewed the shit out of them.

The irony, it's killing me.
