And the big thing for me is that they’re saying the Republicans stayed home, didn’t turn out. I just flat out don’t believe that. If anyone stayed home it was Dems.

Something doesn't smell right to me. We heard of record turnout in Republican areas yet the turnout for Romney was less than McCain after 4 years of the Marxist? That just does not make any sense to me at all. I don't know how they did it... I just know that they did. It is much easier to “lose” our votes than to gin up their own.

This means that 15% of Democrats stayed home vs. 3.4% Republicans.

So, it's about the only thing that went well last night.
