It was but there's still a huge debate over the Romney numbers and something like 6 million voters that can't be accounted for. There is data saying that conservatives sat out and data showing pretty much everything else as well.
Conservatives haven't anybody to vote for in decades. It's all been some different level of suck. the last three have been especially poor. The game seems to be the GOP shoves increasingly rotten candidates at conservatives, in some misguided attempt to attract liberal voters who will never vote for us.
Watch. After this election, and Trump loses, the Pubbies will have a post-mortem as they did after 2012, and learn all the wrong lessons, as they did after 2012. Never will it occur to them they lost because they threw the base away again, as they have in the previous two Presidential elections. No, they will continue to abandon the base in an effort to capture Democrat voters, because that's all they think there are out there. They know this because their friends at the cocktail parties tell them so.
