I feel a bit sorry for those crying crocodile tears over Romney losing. When Bush won re-election in 2004 at least I could listen to Randy Newman perform his "A Few Words In Defense of Our Country" at the Winnipeg Folk Festival and laugh. What does the losing side in 2012 have to listen to? Meat Loaf. Ted Nugent. I'd be crying too.

It's hard to do a what-if, but I think Bush's second term was in large part due to the Democratic party completely rolling over on the Iraq war vote.
