On November 6th Barack Obama defeated
Mitt Romney with 50.3 percent of the popular vote and a surprising 303
electoral votes. Here are the top ten reasons Romney tanked.
10. He didn't have Bill Clinton. Other than his running mate,
Congressman Paul Ryan, Romney didn't have an effective surrogate. Obama
had Joe Biden, Michelle Obama and Bill Clinton who commanded big crowds
wherever he spoke. Romney didn't use George W. Bush, who retreated to
the Cayman Islands.
9. Mitt was wildly unpopular in Massachusetts, his home state.
Obama carried Massachusetts by 23 percentage points. Romney claimed to
have been an effective Governor who practiced bipartisanship, but the
word got around that he had been an arrogant, dogmatic prick.
