It sucks that a "national" election is conducted in only 20% of the states, and that excludes most of the biggest states. But it is fortunate that's how it worked out this year with all the Citizen's United money.

Had Obama needed to make his case on a wider basis, and if he had enough money to do so, he would be leading in just about any state except maybe MS, AL, TX, OK, TN, WV, or LA.

people will be deciding this election, and always decide the elections.

Well, no shit.

Most glaringly and ridiculously under reported is the fact that they don't like Mormons and many tend to over look the difference between the LDS FLDS. The latter being the abusive polygamists. They see a crazed FLDS polygamist twinkle in Romney's eyes. Not that he is an FLDS, but many see that.

They'd feel very justified in seeing that twinkle, even if it's a couple of generations removed.

were soccer moms who either lost their jobs or had to get a second one...

"Let Detroit Go Bankrupt" by Mitt Romney.

I think the ACA tends to disproportionately swing the female vote also.

Finally, "legitimate rape" and reproductive health stumbles have hurt the GOP.

Ain't that a B. You know that's gotta burn more than a few Repugs. Oh I love it. I love it. Sometimes I really
do think Obama is playing 11 dimensional chess...
