I don't know how hard they tried ...

Really? You are not aware of the lines? The efforts in Florida, Ohio, Penn among other states? ..the billboards in minority communities? The open remarks by the Penn republican Turzai? Are you really living in that insular of a bubble?

The turn out was as much a result of the nation wide concerted republican effort to suppress minority voters as it was obama's campaign...

It is inarguable that Obama's success in both elections was in getting the ignorant to vote.

I live in rural Alabama...i am surrounded by republican voters...their health care comes from Medicaid, they gladly collect unemployment insurance, their parents' health care comes from medicare, they live on social security, but wail against "takers" and those "who wage war on christmas"... their news comes from fox and friends and rush limbaugh. Don't talk to me about ignorant voters and class warfare...I have never in my life met more politically ignorant voters...republicans have been exploiting their ignorance for ever.
