If this is true, and I am dubious, then they were believing their own propaganda. And that is pretty scary. Its hard for me to believe too..........but if not true, why would they make that statement? And then there was Fox News and Rove............on election nite, they also seemed to be in shock that the election was not going their way. Its seems that first debate gave them a great deal of hope and as they saw the polls start to tighten, they figured Mitt would have the momentum going into the election. And seemingly, nothing dissuaded them from that position. In the days just before the election, they were making fun of Nate Silver, calling him all kinds of names. Even J. Scarsborough went after Nate........and that's when Nate tweeted Scarsborough, taking him on with a bet. I think they really believed they were going to win because they believed the polls had over sampled Dems...........and the fallen Gallup backed them up on that premise. And yes, its very scary to see so many people delude themselves in that way.
