“Part of this issue is demographics. Obama owns the black & hispanic vote. And, believe it or not, the asian vote. These 3 groups now make up about 37% of the U.S. population. It’s a different elction map for the GOP in 2012. I still think Romney can/will win this election, but it’s not going to be easy.”
Very astute observations.
And in the decades to come, it’s not going to get any easier.
My take on this is explained in this post:

I agree with your post. The demographic issure is really starting to bite now. One step republicans should start trying to do is win back the asian vote that they used to have in the 80s & 90s. Another step would be to somehow slow down legal immigration....it’s killing the right. millions of by & large poor folks coming into the country evey year.
