罗姆尼失败的原因

摘自CNN：

How did Romney lose a race that seemed so tantalizingly within reach just one week ago?

为什么在一周前眼看即将获胜的罗姆尼，却在选战中失败了。

"We were this close," one of Romney's most senior advisers sighed after watching the Republican nominee concede. "This close."

“我们曾经这么近”，在看到共和党候选人选举失败后，罗姆尼的最高顾问叹息道，“这么近”。

 

Little support from young, minorities

年轻人和少数族裔的支持者少

Some answers are easy.

一些很简单的答案：

Romney lost embarrassingly among young people, African-Americans and Hispanics, a brutal reminder for Republicans that their party is ideologically out of tune with fast-growing segments of the population.

在年轻人，非裔和西班牙裔美国人中间，罗姆尼输得很丢人，这给了共和党人一个无情的提醒，他们的党派和人口增长最快的族群在意识形态上已经不合拍了。

Obama crushed Romney among Hispanic voters by a whopping 44 points, a margin of victory that likely propelled the president to victories

在西班牙裔选民中间奥巴马压倒性的赢了罗姆尼44个百分点，这个选票差额最可能导致了奥巴马获胜。
