    Romney's Son Says Mitt Never Wanted to be President, Anyway

    LOL!! Tagg(wtf?) says daddy didn't really even WANT to win. So there!

    If you thought the tale of how Mitt Romney lost the general election was already told, you would be wrong. Because there is so much left to tell, like how Mitt never wanted to be President anyway.

                  I read this the other day and frankly I was a bit disappointed. If he didn't want to become President, why did he run?

                              Arguing whether the Democratic or Republican party is better is like debating which steaming pile of shit is slightly less stinky.

                                  In 2008, I believe McCain didn't really want the job and was just 'taking one for the team' because no repub was gonna win that year.

                                  But Romney? Yeah, he wanted the job.

                                  it's like the schoolyard bully who doesn't get what he wants, and then says "I didn't want it anyhow"

                                          Right!

                                          For a guy who didn't want the job, he sure was driven in the primaries. Millions to destroy Santorum, Newt, Perry, etc.

                                          He wanted it.

                                              To me he seemed like a person that was more interested in the title that anything else.

                                              With 80%+ of the world population hoping for Obama I'd say the right man got the job.

                                                  I would agree.

                                                      I was going to respond to individuals, but when I read that 80% of the world wanted Obama . . . I did not see the point.

                                                              I don't buy it. If he really said that I think it might be about saving face. Kind of like when you don't get a promotion at work then you say, "I didn't really want it anyway." So you feel better about losing.

                                                              I don't think someone who doesn't really want the job spends the last five years of their life, plus a ton of their own money pursuing it. If he really didn't want the job he could have done a few things. First, not run a second time. Second, during the primaries he could have gone all batshit crazy like half the other candidates did and self-destructed. He could have also come out and been sluggish during the debates, but he looked like he really wanted to win the debates.

Kind of like when you don't get a promotion at work then you say, "I didn't really want it anyway." So you feel better about losing.

                                                                                          I don't think someone who doesn't really want the job spends the last five years of their life, plus a ton of their own money pursuing it. If he really didn't want the job he could have done a few things. First, not run a second time. Second, during the primaries he could have gone all batshit crazy like half the other candidates did and self-destructed. He could have also come out and been sluggish during the debates, but he looked like he really wanted to win the debates.
                                                                                          I assume its not that he wanted to lose on purpose. Its that he was not really interested in running for president, but was persuaded.
                                                                                          Like when you do not really want to participate in some race, but somebody from your family or friends persuades you. At that point you won't go and lose on purpose, you will still go for the win.

                                                                                                          Too bad for him that they ran one of the most pathetic, amateur hour campaigns in recent memory.
                                                                                                          Arguing whether the Democratic or Republican party is better is like debating which steaming pile of shit is slightly less stinky.

                                                                                                                  Like when you do not really want to participate in some race, but somebody from your family or friends persuades you. At that point you won't go and lose on purpose, you will still go for the win.
                                                                                                                  I guess I still have to disagree.
                                                                                                                  This isn't like running a race, or going to dinner somewhere that you don't want to go or something like that. It is running for the office of he most powerful man in the world. If he were talked into it by his family I don't think he would have tried as hard as he did to win because then he would have to actually do the job.

                                                                                                                  I love my family, but if they told me they wanted me to commit 4+ years of my life running for office (because he never really stopped after the 2008 election) and if I won I would then have to do the hardest job in the world for the next 4 years I sure as hell would not try to do that.

                                                                                                                  I think he really wanted to win and I think this is his son's way of trying to blow it off.

Then "well, I guess I could run if you put a trust in me".
                                                                                                                          I mean maybe he was not very enthusiastic, but he was not completely against it either. Somewhere in the middle. Not wanted it really much, just wanted it enough to run.

Then "well, I guess I could run if you put a trust in me".
                                                                                                                                  I mean maybe he was not very enthusiastic, but he was not completely against it either. Somewhere in the middle. Not wanted it really much, just wanted it enough to run.
                                                                                                                                  It is possible that this is the case.

                                                                                                                                  To me he seems like one of those A-Type people who decides they want something and goes after it doggedly until they get it.

                                                                                                                                  That said, I do think that he ran not because he wanted to be president in an effort to make the country better, but more like he wanted it because he wanted it if that makes any sense.

I said that most of the campaign things is done by coordinators, not by the candidate. It is possible that it was his idea, but it is more likely that it was an idea of someone else from his campaign management.
                                                                                                                                          They are professional campaign managers and usually they coordinate it. After all they know better how to do it as they are pros in that field, not the candidate himself.

                                                                                                                                                          If you took certain people and their uninformed rantings at face value, you'd think that 100% of the 47% were all lazy welfare queens.

                                                                                                                                                              On a serious note I am sure that republican rule is better for country and democrat rule is better for leechers. The more dems will rule the bigger percentage of population will be leechers and not contributors to society.

                                                                                                                                                              And no I do not think that all 47% are lazy.
                                                                                                                                                              But there is a huge percentage of population that are parasitic lazy and most of them vote democrats. That should say something to you. Why would decent citizen would vote for party that is supported by most of the society parasites?
                                                                                                                                                              As a rule of thumb in most countries decent people do not vote for parties that are supported by bottom society (not talking about simply poor, talking about parasitic lazy and leechers, and similar)

                                                                                                                                                                          On a serious note I am sure that republican rule is better for country and democrat rule is better for leechers.
                                                                                                                                                                          What a pile of shit. Republicans don't give a fuck about the country - their concern is only that their own leeching constituency accumulates more wealth by whatever means necessary - trumped up war, outsourcing, tax cuts, deregulation, etc. They FEED OFF of America.

                                                                                                                                                                          What's good for the top .01% is NOT what is good for the country. Bush gave massive tax cuts to the rich - yet the economy tanked, and unemployment skyrocketed.

                                                                                                                                                                          Not to mention all the other GOP nutty ideas - a complete disdain for science, weakening of the separation of church & state, anti-choice, homophobia, and no interest whatsoever in education. Republican rule is better for the country? Where were you between the years of 2000-2008? Compare to the peace and prosperity of the Clinton years.

Romney was a fucking clown that still doesn't know why he lost.

                                                                                                                                                                                              He was elected and for the most part has largely dismantled al qaeda and killed bin Laden. Something Bush put us into two wars to do, yet never succeeded and largely gave up on it by the end of his last term.

                                                                                                                                                                                              Meanwhile you never hear the right saying anything positive about what he managed to accomplish. I mean after all those were the GOP goals under Bush and were the most important factors if you listened to them in the first election.

                                                                                                                                                                                              Obama has managed to do a better job on foreign policy than Bush and the GOP is quiet as a mouse about that, only to now bitch and moan about problems here in the US which they largely left ignored under Bush admin.

                                                                                                                                                                                              I can't count the amount of times I heard the right complaining about boarder security.. Yet Bush was in office for 8 years and did little to nothing to fix it.

                                                                                                                                                                                                  He was elected and for the most part has largely dismantled al qaeda and killed bin Laden. Something Bush put us into two wars to do, yet never succeeded and largely gave up on it by the end of his last term.

                                                                                                                                                                                                  Meanwhile you never hear the right saying anything positive about what he managed to accomplish. I mean after all those were the GOP goals under Bush and were the most important factors if you listened to them in the first election.

                                                                                                                                                                                                  Obama has managed to do a better job on foreign policy than Bush and the GOP is quiet as a mouse about that, only to now bitch and moan about problems here in the US which they largely left ignored under Bush admin.

                                                                                                                                                                                                  I can't count the amount of times I heard the right complaining about boarder security.. Yet Bush was in office for 8 years and did little to nothing to fix it.

Had he lead the raid. That would've been impressive.

Egypt,Libya,Syria,Iran,North Korea,Israel and now Russia.. Things are significantly worse today everywhere on earth than it was 4 years ago.

You bet. And let's not forget about the deficit. $16.4t and counting.

He also knew damn well that raising taxes on just the top earners would never fly in congress.
