I mean he's a sore loser (among other things)http://crooksandliars.com/2015/02/axelrod-obama-not-amused-romneys
President Barack Obama was not amused by Mitt Romneys 2012 presidential election concession call, according to a new memoir.
In Believer: My 40 Years in Politics, former senior Obama adviser David Axelrod writes that the GOP candidate implied on the call that Obama had won because of his popularity in black communities, according to the New York Daily News, which acquired an advance copy of the book.
Obama was unsmiling during the call, and slightly irritated when it was over, according to Axelrod.
You really did a great job of getting out the vote in places like Cleveland and Milwaukee, in other words, black people. Thats what he thinks this was all about, Obama said after he hung up with Romney.

Met him, briefly thank goodness. He was certainly not as annoyed by my dark-skinned presence as I was annoyed by his presence. Have dealt with "the Klan" of Rmoneys... they suck as bad as you might imagine.

Romney lost the nationwide popular vote by just shy of 5,000,000 (five million) votes, and lost every single swing state but North Carolina. He picked up Indiana, too. Oh, wow.
Milwaukee? Don't tell me this imbecile really thought he was going to win Wisconsin? It was never even close in Wisconsin. What a maroon.
