Mary, instead of attacking the author, explain what you disagree with about what he wrote. He notes that Obama's election victory was broad in terms of population (popular vote victory) but less broad in terms of geography (states and/or counties won). Obviously both can be true if his support was concentrated in urban areas (it was). All of that sounds factual. The maps he provided were interesting and partly explains why the Senate is a problem for Obama. The part that is opinion is his view that Obama would have done better to govern more from the center (like Bill Clinton) rather than from the left. Obama's approach made obtaining House victories easier than Senate victories.
