Another interesting note, the media continually said this would be a massive turnout for Obama, and we would see poll numbers like never before. Well, if that's the case, then why did George W. Bush, in 2004, when he was supposedly hated by all, garner 62,040,610 votes? Obama only had 64,030,409 votes... Where was the gigantic influx of new voters?
Consider this, in 2004 121,069,054 people voted. In this election, where massive waves of people were supposed to turn out and vote for the messiah Obama, 120,525,211 people voted. Do you know why? Because many people were less than enthused for either candidate. True conservatives had no one on the ballot for them, save Sarah Palin, but she was the VP, not our candidate.

You want a blow out? You want a landslide? You want to see what happens when conservatives have someone to rally behind? Reagan 1980, 1984. Only Minnesota went for Mondale in '84, now that's a landslide.
