RE: From what I see we will have a much stronger bench in 2016.
Do you see anyone on the horizon?
RE: Problem is, immeasurable damage will have been done to the country by then.
If what you say is true, that conservatives and evangelicals stayed home in droves rather than vote for Romney, then they have simply allowed the immeasurable damage ( your words ) to be done thinking this would be better for the country. How so, is something these people have not adequately explained to my personal satisfaction.
RE: . We just have fewer conservative voters. 2.5 million have died each year since 2004, and well over half of those were age 75 and above (3/4ths were age 65 and above). These were depression era people that tended to vote and tended to vote conservatively.

Well, this does not bode well for the country’s future does it? If conservatives are mostly older and dying out and fewer and fewer younger breed are replacing them, what does that tell us about the direction of this country?
If Demography is destiny, then this country will be : MORE LIBERAL, MORE HISPANIC and MORE EUROPE-LIKE.
RE: Catholics gave him 48%.
well, this tells me that MOST CATHOLICS (52%) either: Voted Obama, or stayed home.
Which is to say, most Catholic don’t care that their church and institutions are under attack and would rather:
A) Allow Obama’s minions to attack their church and institutions with impunity or;
B) Actively support Obama’s minions’ attacks on their church
and institutions with impunity.
In what way are they still Catholics other than the fact that they were baptized as infants?
Maybe some of those Republican votes were early or absentee and wound up in the trash can instead of being counted.
Because they are Catholics and identify as Catholics, not Protestant or atheist, or Jewish, or non-Christian, etc.
Do you think the vast pool of diversity called “Protestant” is tested for religious purity before being counted?
Separating out members of a single church, a single Christian denomination “Catholic”, is about as good a test for purity as it gets, the Protestant category is just a collection of everything, Black churches, gay churches, Southern Baptists, Episcopalians, people who have never been baptized or ever belonged to any church, but who still say that they are Christian.
I think Rubio, Jindal and possibly Pence could be ready next cycle. I think Christie did some damage to himself with his Obama lovefest that he would have to repair.
Yeah, but not by enough, in the swing states(Catholic).
