‘I Am Happy to Blame the Media’: Ann Romney Says Mitt ‘Was Not Given a Fair Shake’

I Am Happy to Blame the Media: Ann Romney Says Mitt Was Not Given a Fair Shake

AP

Ann Romney said the media didn’t give Mitt “a fair shake” and that she’s happy to blame them for her husband’s loss to President Barack Obama.

“He was not being given a fair shake. People weren’t allowed to see him for who he really was,” she said in a joint interview with the former Republican presidential nominee — their first since the election — aired Sunday on Fox News.

Asked whether she blames the media, Ann Romney replied, “I am happy to blame the media.” Asked if she believes they were “in the tank” for Obama, she laughed.

“I think that any time you are running for office you always think that you are being portrayed unfairly, and, you know, we — of course, on our side believe there is more bias in favor of the other side. I think that, you know, that’s a pretty universal — universally felt opinion,” Ann Romney said.

      “Do not blame Caesar, blame the people of Rome who have so enthusiastically acclaimed and adored him and rejoiced in their loss of freedom and danced in his path and given him triumphal processions. Blame the people who hail him when he speaks in the Forum of the new wonderful good society which shall now be Rome’s, interpreted to mean more money, more ease, more security, and more living fatly at the expense of the industrious.” Marcus Tullius Cicero

      “The budget should be balanced, the Treasury should be refilled, public debt should be reduced, the arrogance of officialdom should be tempered and controlled, and the assistance to foreign lands should be curtailed lest Rome become bankrupt.

      “A bureaucrat is the most despicable of men, though he is needed as vultures are needed, but one hardly admires vultures whom bureaucrats so strangely resemble. I have yet to meet a bureaucrat who was not petty, dull, almost witless, crafty or stupid, an oppressor or a thief, a holder of little authority in which he delights, as a boy delights in possessing a vicious dog. Who can trust such creatures?” Marcus Tullius Cicero

      True dat… Romney (like McLame before him) lost the election by not differentiating himself from the other liberal we had to (viably) choose from. We’re sick of this game being played by the GOP leadership. They keep giving us these candidates that they claim are the ‘electable’ ones and they keep losing.

      And the definition of insanity is…what again?

      A Proressive liberal Republican needs to run as a Democrat. For someone that has all the money in the world doesn’t have to bend over and drop them for campaign funds. I think Romney would have won as a Dem. – this Dem. would have voted for him.

      Ann also laughed when asked if she would be willing to go up against John Kerry…”what, do you expect me to work for a living!!!”. She was far more bitter about not being the first lady than Mitt was of not being president, he almost seemed relieved.

      You can’t shun the media and then blame them. You can’t have it both ways. If there was good news to be presented, Fox would have presented. He was caught saying things that alienated him from the American people and it was exposed. It wasn’t paraphrased or edited. They were his words. Then he kept changing his tune during speaking engagements. The media didn’t make him do that. Stay on point and give examples of how the media wronged him. I don’t see it.

      Gladly, Wow. The media hyper focusing on Romney’s 47% remark while ignoring Obama’s “bitter clinger” remark. The media ignoring Benghazi while focusing on whether Romney “jumped the gun” in speaking out about it. Various comments pressing the opinion that Obama looked Presidential during the Super storm Sandy incident as fact. Ignoring the “Transmit to Vladimir” hot mic moment, and the creepy implications of a president basically saying that he needs to pretend to be one thing for an election then he can change his stance. The media focusing on any gaff made by Romney or Ryan while utterly ignoring the long list of gaffs from Obama and especially Bidden. Candy Crawly (however that’s spelled) interdiction on Obama’s behalf during the debate then later admitting that Romney was right and that she just didn’t like the way Romney phrased it. Those are the instances of media bias that come to my mind instantly. Then there is the “tone projections” that a lot of Conservatives felt the media had, though that stuff is pretty tough to prove so I’ll leave that up for individuals to decide for themselves.

      Benghazi was 24/7 on Fox during that time period. That was agenda-based. I do have to admit that charisma has a lot to do with it (it shouldn’t but it does) and Romney has none. However, Romney was his own worst enemy.

      I have. I really liked the health care plan he put into place in Massachusetts. Actually Romney did some good stuff as Governor beside that. But he had to recant both his healthcare measure – which is probably the best thing he ever did for the common man, and far more I my add than I ever will – and pretend he was Tea Party member in order to win the nomination.

      Election 2012 is the result of what happens when the “chosen people” takeover and control the media. The public gets bombarded with leftist propaganda and sways the public to vote Democratic. Chosen people knew way back 100 years ago that they could takeover this country if they took over the media and this last election is proof. We don’t even have a free press anymore. We have a “chosen people” corporate owned and ran propaganda source calling itself the media. And this whole whole talk that we have to worship Judens because they are “chosen people” is something new. They put that idea out there and people bought into it.

      She’s 75% correct the media played a huge role in re-electing Obama it seemed as though they were actually on the Obama campaign pay role.He77 when you have actual journalist leading the debates incorrectly call Romney a lair in the middle of a debate. Then later react it on page 99 of the post in double small print in the lower left hand corner it certainly seems like a paid political assassination. I’id say 25% goes to Romney’s handlers for not telling him to just go for it. Come out loud and openly about what is destroying this country from the inside and what he planned to do about it.

    One other point, just because Chicago style politics exist, doesn’t make it right. The system is corrupt and broken. Maybe the blame is the unions, police, or the local politicians. Or maybe the fact that no one cares to change it. Thieves, corruption, murders, need to be fixed and repaired. But the community needs to take action, and reclaim their town, state, and their own personal worth. Only then will it change. Change is the word.

      I voted for Romney, did I have a choice??? No… Why did 3 million that voted for McCain last time stay home is the question that needs to be asked!!! Romney could have overcome the media bias had he wanted to… He really isn’t use to working hard. He has a good mind (Not a great mind). As a CEO he is use to setting policy then going home… That doesn’t work in politics….

      The hard questions need to be asked! Obama stated in the debates that Sequester wouldn’t happen, well actually Sequester is a good thing… We need to do it more…. Lets take TSA for instance. In every instance after 9/11, the passengers have subdued the attempts. There won’t be anymore high jacking of airliners because the passengers will fight back before they get into the cockpit… Our personal liberties are being violated for really no reason… How much are we spending on the TSA??? It needs to be dismantled and the Airlines should be responsible and the people who fly. We can not afford all the government spending… Otherwise We Are F-cked (WAF)…

      The missing 3 million voters who voted for McCain but not Romney are evangelicals and Catholics who refused to vote for a Mormon. I heard many callers to talk radio and saw many posts on political forums where so-called Conservatives said they would not vote for a Mormon and would stay home instead. As a result of their bigotry we are stuck with Obamacare, higher taxes/spending and the old liberals on the SCOTUS will be replaced by very young hyper-partisan liberals. I am done dealing with the religious right. If they cannot be counted on in 2012 with so much at stake, why should any political party bother pandering to them now.

      It was an uphill battle, all the way. Romney was not my choice, in he primary, but by the time Super Tuesday comes, there hasn’t been much choice. To have to fight Zero, his campaign, AND his other campaign, made up of 3/4 of the media, didn’t give him much chance.
      The surprise, for me, was the amount of conservative/republican/independent voters who never even came out to vote the boy-king out of office. That’s the REAL shame of it.

      The fusion of business with government leads to oligarchy. The rich are not going anywhere, but wealth becomes a factor of their government connections, rather than skill or even inheritance. Government control over business began under the banner of combating monopolies only to end by creating government monopolies. The war against income inequality will end the same way and with the same results as the oligarchies in Russia, China, Mexico and everywhere else.

    The real truth here is history will judge the media for what they did and didn’t do. In a country where the “Free Press” is supposed to be the watch dog and speak the truth, they became an arm of the campaign for Obama. The FACT that he will be viewed as the most incompetent and misserable and damaging President in history will be contributed to the Mass Media assistance to do so. Each of those individual “reporters” and their obviously insane and misleading statements will be welded to their names for years to come and when we think of the horror and pain of the early 2000′s, we will think of who we had to blame. Obama’s “TEAM” could have never pulled the wool over the “low information voter” without ABC, NBC, CBS, MSNBC, and CNN – and the more years that go by the more obvious that will be. This isn’t about Romney needing to be meaner and tougher, this is about Americans needing to be smarter and more honest – including our press which failed us miserably. Shame on them. Shame on all of us for allowing them to have such dishonesty and to have left journalism so far. There is a wakeup going on. Now that Obama has attacked such an ICON of journalism as Woodward, reporters are opening their eyes. They may like Obama – but Woodward is a journalist’s Hero, a artist of their craft, and a image they desire to attain. The house of cards will fall, but the damage has been done for all history to judge.

      Heck, the media has his face on mount rushmore. The media in the future will blame all those racist white people and tea partiers for Obamas incompetence. The die is already cast. All you have to do is listen. One other thing, Romney never really understood and still doesn’t understand what he was up against. He still thinks like a politician and one who was just as entitled as Obama to be president, and that is the point. We had too entitled people running for president but Obama is the king of entitlements. How could Romney ever expect to win a battle of entitlement with Obama?

    Since when is the media, supposed to pick sides? They are the news, department they’re are supposed to investigate,explore, and question everybody, and everything.you know Bengazi, fast and furious, bribes, accusations, executive orders used to protect the liars, cheats, and murderers in the administration. Not to mention just plainly doing their jobs and not picking apart the their unfavorite candidate. The problem with Ann and Mitt is that they wanted to fix America, not destroy it. The press wants the new world order of peace and love. That’s why the reporter for CBS was raped, reporters are shot and killed. They forgot to tell the rest of the world about their plans. The press or media will never hold a candle to the Romneys. Integrity isn’t one of the ethics the new media follows, neither is telling the truth. I guess that when your bought and owned by the Soros and his group, the truth will never come out. Just ask the boy king Obama. All he knows is lies, innuendos, and accusations. Typical lawyer, typical mouth movements, no proof, no facts, just constant mouth movements.

He was quite vocal on gun control legislation, even publicly supporting the Brady Bill after his presidency until signed. Isn’t reinstating most of the Brady Bill and a little extra what Obama’s pitching? Statists don’t like an armed populace and there are far too many statists controlling the GOP these days.

      Maybe Mitt “Who Let the Dogs Out” Romney’s loss had something to with the fact that even Conservative voters didn’t like him, and many who voted for him had to hold their nose wen they did it.

      @vance Disliking Romney over a president who thought a 4-5 trillion dollar deficit addition in 4 years, a 8.5% to 9.0% unemployment rate and 10 to 20 million Americans who remain unemployed was a recovery?

      If you voted for Obama then good job, you got your imaginary recovery reelected. If there does come a day when you realize your mistake don’t come whining to us.

    I think they are sincere, good people. And it’s obvious they love and support one another. Much more than anyone can say about the currant couple in the WH.
    No matter where you stand on Mitt Romney, you must admit we could have bought some time and had a moment to “breathe” if he were President now instead of the monster we have in charge at the present time…

      Obama has a Whitehouse full of White women…..He has a little Harem for him and Uncle Joe……this is why Mooshell and the kids go to a serperate vacation from their Daddy….Just watch your tv and you will notice there is a total take over of not only the Media but also other stuff….basketball players with tattoos all over them etc. etc….

      And now with all the high paid government officials we still have a massive drug problem in night clubs, where all the “Smart College Kids.’ hang out.

      Keep your children away from the Media……Because the Media obviously does not have your children’s best interests at heart.

They were not interested in anything but sucking off the Obama Government TIT. They still are. @Jimmy Carter. You suck! So does your grandson! Nothing to be proud of. You sucked in the 70s too.

      It’s not what Romney said that cost him the election. It’s not even that it’s true. It’s that he said it behind closed doors, where he thought no one else but his rich potential donors would hear. That was what made it game, set and match.

      Obama made his “bitter clinger” remark thinking he was behind proverbial closed doors. He was only caught because of a hot mic he didn’t think was on. It’s the same damn thing pretty much, only the media hyper focused on Romney’s while ignoring Obama’s.

      Farmhand: I recall plenty of MSM coverage of Obama’s remark from 2008. I think on both sides people tend to feel slighted by the “other” media camp.

      That said, I do see a difference between what Obama said and what Romney said. Obama was relating how his foot soldiers in Pennsylvania were being encouraged to engage with people who opposed him on religious or cultural grounds. Romney was simply airily dismissing half the electorate as not worth bothering about. Big difference.

      LLOYD… that’s a disingenuous observation- and you know it.

      Romney was saying that he expected 47% to vote for Obama because they have no “skin in the game”.
      He was trying to motivate his wealthy, aloof, “peeps” to help him get the other 53% to the polls in his favor by encouraging outrage.
      Bad sentence.

Bad sentence, bad strategy, bad candidate, sentiment unworthy of someone who wanted to be president. I hope Romney is enjoying his retirement as much as I am enjoying his retirement–from politics, anyway.

    The state-run media has become far too powerful. These proggies own the schools, movies, television, print, “news”, games, etc. I seriously doubt, short of God’s miracle or some other Earth shattering event, I will see another Republican president in my lifetime.

    I hate saying it, but Hillary will be president 2017-2025. Who comes after her, I do not know. But it won’t be good.

    I used to get mad at people that said America was dead. After watching millions of my countrymen stay home on election day 2012, I no longer do. If she isn’t dead already, she is definitely dying.

      Everyone needs to think, what will happen to me and my family if America becomes a socialist country? There is a good chance it could happen. Its time to face reality, socialism is taking place before our very eyes, I don’t think we can stop it.

      Republicans tried everything from keeping polling stations in conservative-leaning precincts open longer than ones in liberal-leaning precincts (Ohio), to passing voter ID laws which they knew would unfairly impact minorities (Pennsylvania and other states), and purging the voter rolls of legitimate voters (Florida), and now they’re trying to change the apportionment of electoral votes in a way that would have meant that Romney, having lost the popular vote by 5 million votes, would have won the election, but yeah, it’s the Democrats who are the cheats.

      She is a joke, however.
      Not being able to name Newspapers she reads, agreeing to “perform” on a reality show, appearing on SNL to validate their charicature of her… all of these things have made her a joke.

      Would have been interesting if Ann or Mitt pointed out how the same liberal media harpooned the the campaigns of Bachman, Perry, Santorum, Gingrich. The same one that led the RNC to allow way too many debates so all the dirt would come against the any Obamacare challengers.

      The Romney vs Obama matchup was ordained from the beginning of the season.
      RomneyCare Vs ObamaCare was the target October November matchup since the other conservative candidates after getting the nomination would hammer the negatives of Obamacare day and night.

      As they expected, that drumroll against Obamacare did not happen after Romney got nominated.
