And that election was not a landslide was it? It was nearly as close as 2000, even after September 11 gave Bush an 80% approval rating(which quickly ebbed away with the war and Katrina) Only dirty tactics in Ohio robbed Kerry. Why do you think that exit polls in 2000 and 2004 showed a lead to Democrats but this swung over to Republicans? The trend was uncanny.

they wanted hillary...and really like sarah....and about that gap? do you have poll specifics? i'd be willing to bet there was an oversampling of democrats....reputable firms who poll have the gap at about 5 points...
... and their reasons? Seems there may be a lot of people going the other way... The gap in Virginia is now 10points in Obama's favor, the first time it has been Democrat since 1964.
