I believe this story ... Bannon is a genius for employing these tactics .. in these modern elections , you need two powerful ingredients - the power of persuasion and micro- targeting data analytics .
Karl Rove successfully employed micro targeting for both Bush campaigns .
Obama had a team of master persuaders and data techies working for him , which also won him both of his elections .
McCain and Romney had very lackluster operations at best .
Hillary had some help from at least one master persuader but had a weak micro-targeting strategy and disregarded both .
Trump is a master persuader , so all he needed was the micro-targeting analytic data .
It’s imperative to have these two ingredients to win modern elections . Let’s hope the right Republicans take note ...
