This is why President Obama will win this election.Last edited Mon Apr 23, 2012, 10:40 PM USA/ET - Edit history (2) In 2008, about a fourth of all voters were contacted in some way by the Obama campaign. Mr. McCain’s campaign contacted 18 percent of general-election voters. A FiveThirtyEight study from just after the 2008 election found that “each marginal 10-point advantage in contact rate translated into a marginal 3-point gain in the popular vote in that state.”

Knocking on doors, making phone calls and registering voters TRANSLATES DIRECTLY INTO ELECTORAL MARGINS OF VICTORY.

3. While I Agree With The Intent of Your Post, 2008 and 2012 Are Not Exactly The Same

4. Absolutely! I am proud and very lucky to live in the very BLUE state of Maryland.

However, nothing changes. We worked our asses off in Virginia and Pennsylvania and plan to do the same this time around.
Working the ground really does matter so let's not take anything for granted and let's get to work! |
