Romney lost because he made far too many missteps. 47%, Binders full of women, interviews with a hostile press, inept handlers. While the Obama machinery was in absolutely perfect sync. Press in full Pro-Obama mode, the non issue of abortion being headlined.
The fact that the vote was so evenly split actually served to show the discontent with the current administration, that a fumbling campaign of 3 stooges caliber can capture nearly half the popular vote.
regan did tremendous damage to abortion rights. and the religious zealots have successfully just kept chipping away at it, sometimes murdering real people and bombing clinics to do so.
romney lost because he did not say anything. He kept saying he has a plan for 12 million jobs. but never said how he was going to do it. He was vague about everything. He did not convince the swing voters.

@echoraven, abortion rights and the broader implications are a very real issue.
