I'm guessing he got all their votes.
Obama sure didn't campaign for them eh!

“Romney’s main focus was on the non-existent but otherwise undecided middle with moderate views.”
An excellent post. This election has made clear to me what I understood only vaguely before.
The country is neither “center-right” nor “center-left”. The center, while numerically large, is politically impotent and in the war of ideas insignificant.
On Election Day, they follow the strong horse like the hopeless and weak morons they are.
HW Bush, Dole, Kerry, McCain and now Romney all lost by pleading with this “middle” rather than slapping them hard in the face and saying “follow me”. Obama obviously understood this - my G-d, look what he just sold the nation!
As I’ve said before, Bush was our Clinton (I had a long post on this after he came to our town in July 99). Romney was our Kerry. Sarah Palin is our Obama.
You got it! We told them (GOP e) not to, but they did it anyway. It would be funnier if we weren’t stuck with the results, but I’m trying to stay positive and think we’ll have another chance in 4 years...
