“It’s the stupid irresponsible purists who wouldn’t vote for Romney that are certifiable.”

?? Read the article. All the evidence is that conservatives turned out. There’s other articles out there that are pretty clear that where R’s bombed was that white, working-class men did not, although they lean R. This was probably a candidate and negative-campaign issue. Despite having an attractive, capable, moderate establishment R running, we failed to turn out a key part of our base. I would speculate the working class white men responded to Obama’s class warfare message.

Good analysis; class warfare is a winner for Democrats, or they wouldn’t use it. Our little Republican Party just can’t figure out much of anything, it seems.

What, you mean they didn’t know it was election day? Please. We’re screwed for a generation..the SCOTUS, the economy, all of it.
