Adviser: Romney "shellshocked" by loss

[Grammy23]

71. They had the same access to the information Nate Silver and Sam Wang

were publishing every day for free that the rest of us had. All they had to do was take a look at the numbers. Where they that dumb not to even take a peek? Or did they look and discount it? Whatever. The information was there for one and all to see. They ignored it at their own peril. They were not alone, by the way. Joe Scarborough and others on the right did the same thing. Looks like Nate and Sam got the last laugh on this one.

As for Mitt and Ann being shellshocked...


that was pretty evident on Election Night when they wandered out on stage like a bunch of lost sheep. Even Mitt seemed uncharacteristically quiet and calm. (Was he medicated? We may never know, but he did have a kind of glazed look in his eyes.) And his speech was a bit too nice. If the words were his, he did come from a place inside that we've never seen before. More than likely, however, one of his underlings penned those words that have garnered him so much praise from all sides.

Now that the fireworks show had to be scrapped and Ann had to cancel the new china and drapes for her digs at the White House, may they all fade into the sunset and become footnotes in the annals of time. So long suckers. Don't let that screen door hit ya in the fanny, as we like to say here in the South.
