A heavy turnout in Cuyahoga is absolutely essential to democrats, but it is not enough by itself. With all the other reports of turnout trends across the state, I'm not worried by this. For one thing, CC has a couple hundred thousand fewer voters than in 2008, so the bar is higher than ever.

That’s the key point. Even if they can hit their 2008 percentage, they are still way down in actual votes.
