You sure tore that strawman a new one, but did anybody say that Orca would have facilitated a win, or even a significant vote gain for Romney?

The closest I could find: "We lost by fairly small margins in Florida, Virginia, Ohio and Colorado. If this had worked could it have closed the gap? I sure hope not for my sanity's sake."



It's right there in the article's title: "An inside look behind Romney's loss". I take that to mean that the article attempted to explain (partially) why Romney lost.


Except it drew that conclusion from an article which made no such claim. The headline is blogspam.

The preblogspam article is titled "The Unmitigated Disaster Known As Project ORCA."
