It might’ve worked out better if the GOP had put up a better candidate. Just a thought.

It wasn’t turnout on the GOP side.

It was the massive losses in Latino vote (and Asians), and a majority of Catholics voting Obama.

Turnout was maximized on the right. It’s just hard to win when non-base voters (the “middle”) go to the opponent in such overwhelming numbers.

okay.....this was gamesmanship nothing more .....

we've been told for TWO years about hussein.....

the pitiful public has been told that it was going to be a landslide for a year....

that he had tons of support from lots of voters and they all had donated money, and blah, blah, blah.....

it was gamesmanship....

a psychological war and they won....

I'm not saying that some people weren't apathetic simply because of McCain....but think of the millions that were ecstatic about Sarah.....

maybe some of those listing themselves as Pubs were really not Pubs at all....
