When President Obama repeatedly blamed George W. Bush for the condition of the economy, Republicans repeatedly took issue with the charge. Both parties were to blame for the way Congress forced financial institutions to loan money to people who had no business being approved for a mortgage.
Congress has been in the business of wrecking the economy and then claiming they have the solution to fix the problems they created. Curses on both their houses.
Now the blame-game is coming from the Romney camp. In an interview with Candy Crowley, Romney adviser Carlos Gutierrez first attacked Romney for his remarks about “gifts” by Obama to buy votes. On this Romney is correct despite what some Republicans who are trying to position themselves for 2016 are saying. Then Gutierrez goes further off the rails. Like so many Establishment Republicans, he does not understand the mood of millions of conservatives who once formed the foundation of the Republican Party and gave it substantial victories in past elections, 2010 being the most recent:
“I think we lost the election because the far right of this party has taken the party to a place that it doesn’t belong. We are the party of prosperity, of growth, of tolerance. I mean these immigrants who come across and what they do wrong is they risk their lives, they come here and they work because they want to be part of the American Dream. That’s what the GOP is.”

What an idiot. I hope Romney never runs again, but if he does, he better fire all his advisers.

That’s what the Democratic Party is. Note that Mr. Gutierrez even failed to use the adjective “illegal”, just like the Democratic Party does. That’s not where the millions of conservatives who formed the foundation which gave the Republican Party almost historic victories in 2010 are, far from it.
I voted for Romney but what I have seen as the reason for the loss is a multitude of things. Highest on the list is, he wasn't a "born again Christian". Second, our country has turned it's back on GOD and we will be given what we as a country need to draw people back to Jesus Christ.
