Why did Romney lose

Lisening to Rush today, he said the reason Romney lost was the low white voter turnout. But why was that?

I believe it is because the nomination was stolen unfairly(or at least perceived to be so).

Romney played "whack-a-mole" so long time white voter I was turned off. Romney did not present a positive image, only that he could get elected, and no one else could- so what. What good is electing a RINO, with the same old consultants and staff that gave us John McCain?
