While Democrats are rightfully celebrating their historic hoodwinking of the electorate on November 6, there is a curious fact that is worth considering:
Barack Obama pulled in about 7 million fewer votes in 2012 than in 2008:
2008: 66,882,230
2012: 59,971,178
6,911,052 Net Loss of votes
True, Mitt Romney drew 1 million fewer votes than John McCain managed in 2008; still, that means that Obama lost a net of about six million votes in four years!
Hardly a ringing endorsement of The One and his policies.
So, where, pray tell, is the ‘mandate’ in that?
John W. Lillpop
San Jose, California
John W. Lillpop is a recovering liberal. “Clean and sober” since 1992 when last he voted for a Democrat. For years, John lived in the San Francisco Bay Area, the very liberal sanctuary city which protects, rather than prosecutes, certain favored criminals. John escaped the Bay Area in May and now lives in Pine Grove California where conservative values are still in vogue.
