Quote from RCG Trader:
I think it is about social conservatives over-reaching. In a diverse field like mine, I meet a lot of people. I can tell you safely that I know in the aggregate who will be voting for Obama, and it ALL hinges around social issues. The GOP made a fatal mistake in the primary season. They went soooo far to right, that they literally do not have the time to head back towards the center.
Take a listen at Christie. He was all but shouting that he will get the party back from the nutbirds. His entire treatise was on how a red governor can be successful in a blue state. And it is resonating. This election is all but over. People are looking toward 2016.
