Oh...I get it.. Because the fact is accepted and repeated, that makes it a non fact....Hey. three million stayed home in 2012. Because these closed minded hacks could not STAND to vote for a Mormon, scuttled the election by taking their ball and going home....These fucking far right wing Pentecostal bible thumpers gave us 4 more years of Obama. They could not see beyond their own religious prejudice for the good of the country....Lo and behold, a few polls ( what if the election were held today)were taken 6 months to a year into Obama II and they all indicated that either the election would have been much closer or Romney would have wonBingo....This is just another political ploy on the part of democrat operatives to convince GOP voters they have no chance and should just stay home on election day...Well that settles it!
Why even bother to hold an election?

Same shit. Different flies.
You sure think poorly of Republican voters.
The turnout myth comes from a statistic that has been endlessly repeated: Mitt Romney got fewer votes than John McCain in 2008. This isn't quite true (Mr. Romney this week eked past the McCain totals), and in any event it is somewhat irrelevant. The Romney vote count reflects a nationwide voter turnout that was down nearly five percentage points from 2008. What matters is how the GOP did in the battleground states.
And there? Mr. Romney beat Mr. McCain's numbers in every single battleground, save Ohio
The GOP Turnout Myth
Amazing how that works....
