... the Democrats have been able to win back enough white blue-collar workers in the Midwest and Great Lakes region - thanks to Romney’s attempt to asset strip the auto industry -- to hold states like Ohio and Wisconsin, which had been in play. As the numbers of reactionary white men declines in the future, states like Texas and Georgia may follow Colorado and New Mexico in becoming competitive, rather than exclusive GOP turf. Losers in this transition include Prime Minister Netanyahu of Israel, and the warmonger neocons who had attached themselves to Romney. Another loser is CIA boss David Petraeus, who is heavily implicated in the staged Benghazi September 11 incident designed to defeat Obama, and who is now paying the price.
