Romney was a very weak candidate but still just barely lost the prez election and the repubs lost 2 senate seats and 8 house seats. In 2004 when bush won his second term over kerry, the dems lost 4 senate seats and 3 house seats.

Only reason repubs lost anything is because fatboy Chris Christie betrayed his own party and helped obozo. The GOP message of small govt and rule of law is still sound and they need to stop this nonsense about becoming dem-lite and giving more welfare and affirmative action to the negros and hispos.
 
Because people such as yourself have redefined panicking to mean something it doesn't mean and convinced themselves that the GOP is panicking over things.
 
Concern for the country and panic are two different things. We have to change course or we are royally screwed.

I am not so sure if Romney was a weak candidate. Remember that first debate where he completely destroyed Obama? Unfortunately for Romney, it was not him that was too, weak, it was the Republican party that was too weak. Romney did what is rarely done by a Republican, stand up and fight like he did in debate #1. That debate was too much for Republicans to handle, remember, they are the party of surrender and fight is not in their creed. The handlers got to Romney and he toned things down noticeably in the 2nd debate and even more so in the 3rd debate.

The thing the Republican party should panic about is that more people are seeing voting for them as a waste of a vote. Why vote for a person who when they go back to DC will just find the fastest and easiest way to surrender to the Democrats? Establishment Repubicans are attacking TEA Partiers in their own party just like Democrats. I am voting either Libertarian or Independent in 2014. Until Repubicans grow a backbone, they are going to find getting votes harder and harder. They need to dump the establishment for sure.

Well I would say they are over reacting a bit, but not much. Fact is Obama should have been easy to beat. His record sucked. The Fact he not only won, but won easily is bound to make his opponents worried.

The GOP lost because of far right hatred that drove away Hispanics and women.

If you freaks try to play off the real reason we lost, the GOP will continue losing BIG.
 
Republicans pulled in 900,000 more votes than they did in 2008. Democrats were down 3,800,000 million votes from 2008. The Democrat party better be worried, seeing Mitt was a horrible candidate and they best Dems can do next election is get a woman to run and play the "it's about time" card like they did with Obama's skin color.
 
Avory, an almost 5mm swing in the votes, and the Dems still won easily against a weak president and an even weaker economy, because the women and minorities deserted the GOP in huge numbers, and all of this is going to change?

You are nuts.

The ignorance and hate exhibited in this post is why the GOP lost last November, and why they’ll continue to lose.

I don't see how they can change that. You can say what you want, but In Reality Romney was not some far right candidate. His record could not be more clear. He is and was a Moderate.

How do you purpose for example they win more Hispanic Votes? Grant Amnesty? Reagan tried that and in the very next Election the GOP got even less % of the Hispanic Vote than Reagan had. Not matter what the GOP does the Dem Propaganda machine will still be telling Women, and Hispanics, and Blacks that the GOP is nothing but a bunch of Old Racist White men. We lost this country to the left long ago, when we sat back and let them gain control of our Education system, and Press.

The Game is over.
 
Demographics are a growing challenge to the party of the WASP South......

Obama was still a black man with a funny name and this time a bad economy and a muddled dream though so he was in a weak position.

I honestly think a hypocrital small government platform keeps losing the GOP votes. Non party members just know the party of Reagan Bush and Bush is not interested in small government or a low debt yet Repubs talk about it soooooo much and look stupid.

Let the banking crisis and bailouts from Reagan and Bush II fade from memory and the Rebubs have another decade before the browning of America becomes critical against em.

Romney was weak. Can you name one time he attacked obozo? Obozo was a failed incumbent and if romney had attacked he's have gotten 60%. Remember how obozo slammed romney over the 47% comment. It was a golden chance for rom to say "that's the difference between us. I'm a capitalist and you're a socialist". Instead he apologized!!

Obozo did NOT win easily. He got 51% to rom's 47.
