Surely you feel silly about the pre-emptive “buses of false voters” claims. Nobody in the bluest county in Wisconsin (Menominee) even came out to fucking vote. As bad as Walker winning is, the peripheral data is dramatically worse.
We are talking a 1994-style rout for Democrats in November. Now tell Tom Morello to shut the fuck up and pack your go bags.
1994 was a mid-term, but I’ll ignore that.
I’ll present an alternative. the data (probably?) shows that Democrats can’t win an election without Obama. What does that say about the Democratic coalition that it can’t win an election without a cult of personality bringing enough support to put them over the top? This is a stupid way to run things.
Basically, I don’t think that this is indicative of Obama’s chances in November, and that is a bad thing. A large number of voters are disinterested in actual politics and will only vote when they feel that their vote has meaning- in the Presidential. This is awesomely stupid and only one side is doing it.
