I've commented on that exact subject here at Free Republic many times in the past.
There is no clear statistical evidence that white Conservatives stayed home in 2012.
Romney actually got 1 million more votes than John McCain got in 2008.
Most important:
Obama lost 4.5 million white voters in 2012.
Superficially, a person could conclude that ALL the white voters who stayed home were disillusioned Obama voters.
To my knowledge, no one has ever taken a poll to find out how many Conservatives stayed home in 2012.
I am not saying you are wrong.
But I am saying that the incomplete statistics we do have for 2012 raise a lot of doubt about your conclusion.
“But I am saying that the incomplete statistics we do have for 2012 raise a lot of doubt about your conclusion.”
What conclusion was that?
