Republican and Conservative political analysis and commentary

Cogitamus has an electoral return map that shows that Huckabee's strategy worked, sort of:

Romney's keys to victory were that (a) his half had more people, and (b) he won it by a larger margin. The most pro-Romney counties were actually suburbs and exurbs of Detroit, rather than Detroit itself. McCain's base was the Youpers.

The western counties were reported to be the areas with large Evangelical/Christian voters and was where Huckabee spent time campaigning.
