...them elected. And when they lose, I don't take it personally. And Romney was like every other candidate in our field. The reason that we're in this mess is because not one of our candidates, from top to bottom, fully met or meets the three-legged stool of conservatism. You've got this foreign policy crowd, you've got the fiscal conservative-small government crowd and you've got the social and cultural crowd. We didn't have one candidate who wrapped them all up.

...present himself not as the person he is, but the product he thought he should be. Thanks to that miscalculation, voters in Iowa, South Carolina and New Hampshire were bombarded with television ads and direct mail about "strength" and "optimism," his distain for illegal immigration and the three-legged stool of the conservative coalition he only joined in the last few years. His long jaw and his toothy smile ruled the airwaves. He attacked his opponents with abandon...
