One key takeaway was Newsom’s number if 329,000 whites staying home in OH.
This is the first actual evidence I have seen of Rush Limbaugh’s claim that “4 million conservatives stayed home in 2012,” and would easily be 4 million. Bet 4 million don’t stay home for Trump.
Great post LS. I swore at the time there was no way we would lose Ohio. But Romney caved on Benghazi and I was dumbstruck. It was a winner issue. If a chunk of Ohioans not just stayed home but bad-mouthed him, too, then that kind of whisper campaign can spread fast.
Bottom line for me is that Romney was a lousy general.
