Ryan blames 2012 US Republican loss on poor communication

WASHINGTON - Ending a self-imposed silence about the November election, 2012 Republican vice presidential nominee Paul Ryan said on Wednesday that he and presidential running mate Mitt Romney lost not because of ideas, but due to ineffective communication.
Ryan said Democratic President Barack Obama and Vice President Joe Biden also prevailed because they did a better job with "technology and (voter) turnout."
"We have to learn that," said Ryan, chairman of the House of Representatives Budget Committee. "We have to fix that."
