(2,307 posts)Bigots, who may be women, middle class, seniors, blue collar, police, firefighters, and EMS. Also, don't forget the right-wing Christians. I see a group of voter, at least in Alabama, who a Romney/Ryan presidency would hurt them drastically, yet they HATE President Obama. This seems to be based on pure racism or abortion rights.
And don't forget the Republican State Legislatures who are working extremely hard to reduce the Democratic vote. Between voter ID, limiting early voting hours, and last minute voter list purges, three very important swing states could be stollen for Romney.
