Here in mid-coast Maine we saw a HUGE increase in election day registration/voting by first timers.
Once the data is available via the state’s office of elections, we plan to look closely.
Could it be we just got out-played ?
I’ve been thinking along these lines as well. There was an article in Atlantic (I saw it linked on Hugh Hewitt’s site) that went into great detail about how the technonerds in the Chicago headquarters did successfully what the disastrous Romney ORCA project was supposed to do.
Yes,there was massive fraud, but that alone is not enough to explain things.
It dovetails with the strange sense I’ve been getting this fall in the classes I teach at the university. Never before have the students been so openly hostile to Christianity, so mind-numbingly ill-informed hoop-jumpers, such non-self-starters. They absolutely refuse to step back, examine an idea, think it through. All they want to know is which hoop to jump through to get an A. Never mind that their A’s are meaningless (I tell them that) or that there will be no jobs even if they do get A’s. They just don’t want to be bothered with learning to be self-starters and to think critically about Stuff. They just want hoops to jump through.
Why is this so much stronger and all of a sudden?
I’m sure there are many reasons, but I’m thinking that since this is the first class, more or less, to enter university never having not known the Internet, that they really are more mind-numbingly hoop-jumpers than the last few years’ classes because they’ve been totally trained, like Pavlov’s dogs, by the internet, Facebook, instant-messaging ephemerality.
It’s a variation on how to do demagoguery and bread and circuses. Obama’s people have glimpsed the import of the Internet for the future and are exploiting it.
The problem is, can a mind-numbing technology be employed by those whose “product” they want to sell is a product that requires real, thoughtful, critical analysis??
There is no doubt in my mind that there were multiple factors causing an otherwise incomprehensible win for Obama, but take away the fraud, and I do believe the remaining factors would not have carried him to victory.
Fraud, blatant fraud I believe was the major “winning” factor, and apparently little to NOTHING is being done to address the issue by any of our alleged representation.
We received sufficient warning about the voting machines prior to the 2008 election, and much more has been written about those machines, their ownership, their source of programming since, and during this recent election the machines performed as was determined they would in the forewarnings we received.
Illegals voting was noted during the polling, as well poll watchers of one party evicted from their posts as blatant cheating was performed by the other.
The list goes on yet not a damned thing seems to be in the works to address these serious violations.
The election-deniers will insist that all is well, we had a great candidate, and it was all fraud that got Obama elected.
But the truth is that the democrats have approached elections like marketing a product. They found a way to sell things to the mass of people who never vote, and if you can drag 2 million new people to vote, you can win close elections.
They lost existing customers, but were able to market their shiny baubles to new customers who didn’t know any better.
Meanwhile, conservatives and the GOP treated the election like it was an actual election, and the electorate like they were intelligent, involved people who wanted what was best for the country and would understand that Obama wasn’t it.
We lost the election in large part because too many of the voters were nothing like this; they didn’t care about foreign policy, about congress, about running the country. They were people who don’t vote. But these ivy-league marketing pros were able to find different little messages that excited these people to products.
And why not, look at how we can get people to throw away perfectly good phones for the latest craze? And so all those things that we thought were stupid, and childish, like Obamaphone, and free birth control, homosexual marriage, and ObamaSex were all targetted messages, possibly turning off a few independents, but winning a large mass of new voters with each message.
Tell all the little groups what they want to hear, and cobble together a winning coalition.
Heck, you only had to do it twice. Once in 2008, and then after you lost 4 million people who saw you were all talk, get 2 million new replacement suckers.
I saw this first-hand at my daughter’s college. Every time I visited, she was asked to register. They ran events, made it cool to be a voter. They gave support and encouragement, all aimed at doing the “cool thing”, vote for the black guy who supported tolerance and free love, and who wanted people to pay their “fair share”.
While we laughed at OWS, the democrats used it to pull in another million new voters. Sure, they lost 500,000 because of it, but that’s a win.
We need to stop thinking “if you build it, they will come”, and get into the “sell our message and drag people to the polls”.
We can win with conservatism, but we have to make it relevant to the people who don’t vote, so we can turn out the masses. We win in off-year elections and local elections where only the more interested take part, but we need a non-voter strategy if we want to win presidential contests.
Or, we can all stick our heads in the sand, cover our ears, and chant “election fraud”, as if that will make it all better.
Remember when anyone who DARED to mention the Soros-funded Shadow Party organization the Socialists were building, was immediately branded a right-wing fruitcake nutjob???
They got him. Let them enjoy him.
Turnout of conservatives is the key. The left can’t cheat enough to overturn a mandate like Reagan got. They can’t win if it’s not close. This may be moot, considering there is a good chance we will never find another candidate with Reagan’s chops.
This is what I suspected. Covert operations in mind control, more or less. Is this how they convinced people the bad economy is still Bush’s fault? I think that was key.
We keep being lazy. We want an easy way to win elections, “This new software will allow us to know who hasn’t voted!” The
Democrats bought smart with their money. We bought Prebus. Who won?
We can beat this behavioral science brain trust. I already see one weakness.
