Bill O'Reilly Says Romney Didn't Want To Win 2012 Presidential Election

Fox News host Bill O'Reilly said Thursday that former Republican presidential nominee Mitt Romney lost the election because he "did not want to be president of the United States," AL.com reported.

O'Reilly told the crowd at a Faulkner University fundraiser that he asked Romney to appear on "The O'Reilly Factor" for an entire hour the Monday night before the election, after the Obama campaign turned down an offer to split the hour.

“We never got an answer," O’Reilly said, as quoted by AL.com. "We never got a reason. They just didn’t do it.”

“So we’re sitting there going, 'Does this guy want to lose?' The answer is yes, he did not want to be president of the United States, and that’s why he lost," he continued.

It actually is possible to make more money with a flop than with a hit. He stiffed his whole campaign staff. I don't know if Journey and Skynyrd ever got paid for playing at the convention...

The SuperPACs working on his behalf bought shitloads of airtime on Clear Channel media, owned by Bain Capital...

Dude made a fortune losing, and our country is currently being held hostage by his policies anyway....

Then there's TPP

Why be President when your agenda is going to happen anyway and you can walk away right now with a pile of cash for doing nothing at all?

Clearly, any candidate who declines to appear on his show wants to lose.

4. Remember when Romney's people tried to float this right after the election?

His son (IIRC) was quoted as saying he had never met anyone who didn't want to be president more than his dad. Yeah, right. It's really childish and I think speaks volumes to the mentality of Romney and the Republican party in general. The only reason he lost was that he didn't want it? Keep thinking that, guys, all the way to the dust bin of history.

It couldn't be that Romney didn't want to be seen anywhere near YOU, BIllo?
Therefore, It must be that Romney knew he could essentially throw the election
by skipping out on your stupid show.

Having no sense of shame must make for an awesome life.

votes Republican, even if the Democrat is Jesus Christ and the Republican is Pol Pot. Billo The Clown is just full of himself. He must be on dope if he thinks a Republican appearing on The Factor will change an election.

If what he is saying were true, then the Republicans would truly be a sad party. They couldn't find a candidate who wanted the gig? They ran for the Presidency of the US, someone who didn't want it? Billo doesn't realize how lame he is making them sound.
