He said the party had organized a mass mailing to registered republicans, vast numbers of the mailing were returned and then the party decided to look into who was still in the state. The number of people registered with the Republican party who were no longer living in MA was 35,000. A staggering figure.
That was two years ago and things have gotten much worse here. I can only imagine how many have left at this point. I've met any number of people who while Conservative never registered with the Republicans so the exact number of Conservatives lost from MA is unknown.
pretty crazy around here.
This is very bad news for Obama 2012 and great news for Sarah Palin. This makes it that much easier for her to win. Those 3 or 4 extra Texas electoral votes are already nailed down in her column, as well as the other gains in the South and West.
The Dems will have a very hard time winning Presidential Elections with this new electoral make up.
I could truly see a realignment happening among the states...and the blue states will continue to die (MI, CALI, MA, NY, etc.) Hate to be uncompassionate - but tough beans if they do. I will support Constitutional loyalty over some supposed loyalty to the historic cities and states in the good ‘ol USA.
