Washington Post's Harold Meyerson has put together an analysis of the major groups of contributors to the Obama and Romney campaigns.
The results are very interesting. Meyerson summarizes:
"Obama won overwhelming backing from the most productive and innovative
sector of American capitalism. Romney won the backing of finance and
casinos, whose contributions to American productivity and well-being are
more difficult to discern, and which are industries based on
reshuffling resources in games the house almost always wins. Obama, if
you will, won the makers; Romney, the takers."
That observation is based on where serious money came from. It is quite a different matter to analyze where the votes came from and why.
I'll save that for later.
