I think there was another analysis that said if Romney just picked up the 2004 Bush voters that stayed home because they didn’t like McCain in 2008 and kept the rest of the base, he would win just on the math alone.

Nice analysis. I'd like to see a poll that includes this question and the responses to it.

GOTV is the drip irrigation of politics (as opposed to the sprinkling of broadcast ads that can evaporate before they hit the ground). I hope R+R have GOTV nailed down tight because in the end, this is all that will really matter.

I have read that Romney has alreadt contacted as many voters as McCain did in 08 with a month left before voting. I think we are not seeing a ton of Romney ads because the money is being spent on phone banks.
