<<Apparently some of your male, white, 'liberal' friends may have been lying to you and it looks like some of the 'kids' stayed home: Among white voters overall—still 72 percent of total ballots, down from 74 percent in 2008—Obama lost to Mitt Romney in a devastating landslide, 59 percent to 39 percent. Four years ago, he also lost the white vote, but by a far more modest margin of 12 percentage points rather than the 20-point blowout this year. Compared to his Election Day performance in 2008, Obama lost more than 7 million white votes. ->> No, tejek, those would be independents we lost in 12. Liberals don't vote for pubs. Period. Some of the kids may have stayed home. They were disappointed by Obama not walking his talk.
