This is basically what I hate about elections, not just America but all over the world.
A very large section of the demographic will form the same political affiliation that their parents had and simply vote for the same party for the rest of their lives, very much the same mentality as 'Rah Team'
Sorry but popular vote means nothing in elections the only defining figure is seats won and that shows Obama won by well over 100 seats more than Romney, even to say they lost the house is misleading because the repub's only held out there due to their gerrymandering redivision of electoral boundaries.
