It wasn’t until a couple of years ago that it dawned on me why voter turnout is so important. Those that really have a strong opinion are not going to flip parties. The most you can do is get them to not vote at all. Who here would have voted for Obama if Satan himself had run for the R’s?
I rest my case...
Wisconsin has went RAT for potus for many years, but Walker has won statewide 3 times in 4 years.
Nobody in WI would call him a moderate, the left hates him with a passion.
Perhaps that is proof that a conservative POTUS nominee can win in states the rats take for granted?
A conservative wouldn’t lose a single state that Romney won, but might pick up 4-5 that he lost.
