Since Romney got a million more total votes than McCain, is it your belief that Romney got five million more non-white votes to make up for the lost four million white votes?
Obama drew 7.6 million fewer votes against his first performance. Why? GW Bush in 2004 gained 11 million votes over his first performance. Why?
Romney couldn’t convince the middle class he was on their side. It’s not Romney’s fault as Romney. The country wants a decent, pro-business, qualified candidate. We can win, but we have to show the middle class we’re on their side. Axelrod knew this and came up with the winning path.
America is at an inflection point that rarely happens. The last time was over a century ago. We can become the majority party based on effectively espoused conservative principles.
But you can’t do that if you lose the middle class. People vote their wallet and Obama isn’t running in 2014 or 16. Race won’t matter, economics will.
