This article totally misses the fact that Obama won in 2012 because of the LACK of enthusiasm and turnout for Romney.

The blame for that rests entirely on the shoulders of Romney, he was a poor candidate. 99.9% of the votes he got were votes "Against Obama". You cannot win an election that way.

Plus you must not forget that he stole the 2012 election.

Did you ever ask yourself how that arrogant pos knew that he would win the election when he told the Russian PM on March 26, 2012 that he would be more flexible after his election.

Notice he did not say if I win the election Obama tells Russian PM "After Election I Have More Flexibilty" 3/26/2012

Which means only one thing. He planned to steal the election and steal it he did

Re: “This article totally misses the fact that Obama won in 2012 because of the LACK of enthusiasm and turnout for Romney.”

That's debatable.

Romney got 1 million more votes than McCain.

Around 4 million white voters stayed home in 2012.

However, Obama lost 5.5 million white voters in 2012!

It can be argued that Romney and McCain got about the same number of votes, and that the 4 million whites who stayed home in 2012 were mostly disillusioned Obama voters.
