Well I can hope. But it is not entirely unrealistic. The following chart is a demographic breakdown from The Washington Post of all places that shows voting patterns by group. In not one instance has there been an increase and in some the difference is huge. The 56% loss of Republicans is the largest group defection but if there are still 39% who are voting for Obama but call themselves Republicans then I am not entirely sure what being a Repubican can mean to them. I know there’s still Ohio and I know that Intrade never gets it wrong, but there are reasons to hope, and these are some of them.
