The initial reports had Romney receiving a million votes less than McCain. Updated reports from wiki say Romney ended up with about a half million more votes than McCain. Exact same thing for conservatives, most reports said Romney got less than McCain. How it ended up I don’t know. I do one thing though. Republicans need to worry about getting their base to vote for them. White voters outnumber all minority groups combined. To hell with hispanic voters, a very small percentage vote anyway and to hell with black voters, who vote for sugar daddy every time we have an election. Like Reagan republicans need to concentrate on reliable white voters. It works every time. 20% of so-called Evangelicals and 50% of so-called Catholics voted for Mr. Abortion. There lies the election.

They were wrong. Many of the absentee ballots had not been counted.

Check out the exit polls for 2008 and 2012.
Whites made up 74% of the electorate in 2008 and 72% in 2012. Blacks were 13% for both elections. Latinos were 9% in 2008 and 10% in 2012. Latinos can be of any race.

On that we agree.
