The claims are being made by those who have already had the pants scared off of them by Tuesday's results. They see the writing on the wall for a generation to come, and what we're witnessing now is the terrified over-reaction of all those scared, pantless Republicans. Sit back, relax and enjoy. The OP and threads like this are actually great comedy.

*SIGH*

You just don't get it!

Nominating white face after white face is NOT helping the GOP.

Get some color out there to better represent what the people want.

Rich white guys aren't cutting it anymore!

An all-white, all-male democrat ticket (Biden/Van Hollen) vs. the smart, colorful pair of Rubio/Rice???

How Sweet It Is!!
You can have a guy named Jose Cuevo as your candidate, as long as the GOP continues to demonize me and my family, this Hispanic is not voting Republican.

Yeah, that's it, nominate Herman Cain and Jindal for 2016, Hispanics will vote for the GOP in record numbers.

Agreed. Putting people on the top of the ticket because they look presidential is only a small part of the picture, the person also has to be a leader with strongly held principles and be able to persuade people that his ideas and philosophy are the best.

The problem with 0bama is that even though he is convincing and charismatic, he lacks basic leadership skills, he was not even able to lead his party when they controlled everything. 0bama knows what the vision of his Utopian future is supposed to look like, but has no clue how to get there, it's as if he read it in a book once.

Please no. Nominating people who are annoying to listen to for long, will surely lead to failure.

Self-hating Latino, I see.

You shouldn't turn your back on a fellow hispanic if he chooses to run.

But Obama is great at winning elections and that is what counts.

How about the GOP live in the present for awhile instead of from election to election.
