Romney lost by 3.4 million votes and counting. If he had not begun to "moderate" his views in October it would have been much worse. That is exactly why he tried to move toward the center. Now I know that you and the other far right folks will say "no, if he had stuck with his more conservative ideas he would have won." Well, if you believe that you IN FACT do have your head in the sand. There is no need to "moderate" your beliefs, but if you expect to bring others to your side to win elections outside the ruby red south, you are absolutely going to have to "moderate" your tone. People tend to not vote for candidates or parties who at best come across as not respecting or trusting them and at worst outright hating them.

This is a diverse country and it is becoming more diverse each day. Unless the right wing of the GOP at least begins to admit this and to realize that there are other ideas being promoted in a much more politically reasonable way, they will eventually be a party relegated to wining local races in the deep south and a few NW inland states. I say again...that would be a bad day for America.
