For the most part, the Right is NOT self imploding, and blaming Romney. That is a good thing. Anybody who supported him should be proud and thankful that a man like that put himself up to be our representative.
He didn't have the conservative credentials that some of us look for, but he would have been a great President. The Republicans lost because we are losing the war of words. One thing we DO hear, from the Left itself (who is trying to make sure enough people hear their false narrative that it becomes the truth) but also from the Right, is that the Republican Party needs to reach out to Blacks and Hispanics. I could not disagree more. Our values and goals ALREADY speak to them - they are not listening. So in that respect, yes, we need to reach out to them (did anybody see our convention?).
Arthur Brooks makes a great case for this in The Road to Freedom, only he wasn't speaking about the color of people's skin, he was talking about people in general...

The news media wanted him and helped every chance they got. 3,000,000 of Romney's base didn't bother to vote. That number really hurts. 50% of this country are the takers and another 10% have given up. Not a good combination.
We've sowed the seeds. Now it's time to peel and eat what we've pined for as a nation.
