FNC been saying that for a while but the GOP/Romney/Ryan strategy was no strategy. Romney won the primary being the toughest on immigration and after that dropped it completely and had no strategy to keep Hispanic voters from coming out to vote against him.
O targeted women, hispanics, blacks, gays, ..... every Demo group separately to get out the vote. Both Gays AND illegals won big in Maryland on the ballot and O took stands on both largely unopposed. But yesterday I kept reading here that Maryland Republicans are turning out to vote in historic numbers.
R/R/R strategy was to say ‘Relax. We are winning. Don't worry Play it safe ’ You see that post yesterday saying that Romney didn't have a speech prepared for a loss? You really think they didn't know this was coming? Even Rove sounded worried on Monday as I pointed out here.
Rush is saying we are outnumbered today. Didn't he spend months saying to not believe the polls showing R/R behind?
No plan is not a plan.
I didn't hear the show, but I suppose a simple "Sorry, I admit I was wrong about voter turnout" would be out of character for Rush.
It's possible that some pollsters changed their polling methods late in the game to favor Romney too much, after hearing that Romney was doing better than their polls so long. The RCP poll final average (LINK) showed O up by 0.7 but in the actual vote count he was up 2.2. In 2008 the RCP average had Obama +7.6 and the actual vote was +7.2.
