An Ohio Thought Experiment
UPDATE: It seems that others confirm my analysis....here
UPDATE2: And more confirmation....here
Now, I know the RHINO Cabal will be casting the blame for the election results on the biased media (despite the fact that more people watch FOX News than all the other networks combined) and their biased polling, but let's do a little Ohio thought experiment here.
Comes now the Ohio Republican Primary Election results...

Comes now the Ohio General Election results...
Ok, now we only have 99.7% reporting as of this post, but that's good enough. We'll assume Stein and Duncan did not get votes from Republicans.
Now, Ron Paul being a strange breed and all, I'm hesitant to suggest that if 111k voted for him in the primary then 222k would have voted for him in the general, even though it looks like, in general, about twice as many folks turned out to vote in the general as in the primary. But let's play it overly safe and say that everyone who voted for Paul in the primary make up his strong support. Maybe a few more would have come out in the general if he were on the ticket, but then they wouldn't be ardent supporters, would they?
Now, let's take a look at the vote difference between Obama and $Rmoney...
hmm...just over 100k votes. Wanna know what happened to those 111k Paul supporters that turned out for the primary? I shall divulge. $Rmoney probably got a solid 5% (5k) of those, but very doubtfully much more if that many at all. 35K of Gary Johnson's 40k votes are all Paul supporters. Then the remaining 60k or so? Yup. They wrote in Ron Paul or abstained.
In other words, a solid 100k+ of the Paul supporters went to Gary Johnson or wrote in Ron Paul, but they explicitly did NOT vote for $Rmoney.
The reason you lost Ohio by 100k votes is because you treated 110k voters and their man like trash.
This same story plays out in Florida. In fact, it's even more obvious. $Rmoney and Obama differed by only 50,000 votes in that race. Guess how many supporters Ron Paul had in Florida during the primary?

117k supporters! Gosh....maybe you shouldn't have alienated them! Yes indeed folks. $Rmoney lost the election because of Ron Paul supporters in the swing states, plain and simple. The GOP can't say they weren't warned.
So, I guess having communicated to the GOP that we will no longer elect their liberal candidates, now we shall move to that excited phase where we get Barry Soetero removed from office on the grounds of ineligibility. You laugh?
