Romney Couldn't "Afford" To Compete With Obama

Talking about what went wrong, Romney said they didn't get the turnout from minority voters that they needed and he acknowledged his campaign was outmatched by his opponent's massive organization.

"I think he had as many as 10 times the number of ground workers, paid staff, that we had, because he could afford them and we couldn't," he said.

and all those hedge funders and private equity parasites and monster corporations couldn't come up with enough money and that's why you lost?

You don't think it was because you're a privileged tight-assed sociopathic asshat who can't communicate with anybody who isn't a private equity parasite?
