Let’s not discount the fact that the FL GOP, especially in the coastal counties, is disproportionately older, and Romney won these big. Why? Because, deep down in their little heart of hearts, these older voters want a guy who’s going to keep ObamaCare pretty much as it is, since they get the goodies bundled up in it.

Here is the truth that no one wants to hear... but the truth is the truth. The gop is NOT a conservative party and the majority of Floridians are in no way conservative... and the seniors only care about themselves and their gubmint check.

I think your analysis may be mostly sound but I disagree it is all about medicare.

Many of the older FL GOP are retirees transplanted from the northeast. They are very familiar with Romney politically. They like his style.

I disagree. Seniors were strongly against Obamacare, and know Obamacare cut the hell out of Medicare. Seniors must have fully believed Romney was every bit as willing to reverse Obamacare as the others.
