I didn’t. Romney did not draw big rallies during the primaries. He got moderate rallies during the general because of opposition to Obama...not because he really could generate excitement. We have yet to see the size of rally Trump can get after the convention with the trump train pulling out of the station heading for November.
I wish I didn’t have to explain this.
You say Romney drew ‘moderate’ rallies during the general, which I was referring to.
I say the ones I attended were large.
That is why most observers were surprised by the result.
Hope this clears up any misconceptions you may have.
