That’s true. Only getting the base at rallies. One turnout counts, and that’s the one on election day. Milf Romney had large rally crowds, but got his @ss kicked. Trump is correct to campaign everywhere. He must ask for and win the undecided & independent votes, married women & women 30+, and also put in place an effective GOTV operation. In addition, must get those 8M+ evangelicals to the polls who have been sitting on their hands. Blacks are a lost cause, but he could make a dent in the Latin vote.
Yes, but Obama’s crowds were also really large back then. The small and lack luster crowds that Hillary is getting now tells me that base is broad but thin. The usual Democrat constituencies won't do her much good, if, due to a lack of enthusiasm for her, they either stay at home or vote for someone else on election day.
