Its hard to disagree. The GOP never wins without the south, and its clear from 2008 Willard is not well received there. What do they think has changed down there?
The country is in a state of flux. Northern liberals are fleeing south in fear of the mess they created and illegals are continuing to flow across the border.
There’s a red/blue flip coming to America.
The midwest is a good indicator of that. (outside of Illinois) Michigan was a tie before the table tilted in favor of Romney, Santorum took the “beauty contest” in Minnesota, and finished down 1 in Ohio. I’m not sure what to make of Wisconsin at this point.
