At this early date, what everyone can say with certainty is that this campaign was won on the ground, not with a macro-message, and not over the air. (I do not yet believe a swing in the national mood fully explains the complete reversal from the direction of 2010).

This blog post by Ace of Spades -- a must read -- suggests one reason why the Right-leaning ground game may have badly failed.

I'm sure Ace won't be the last to report or opine.
