I heard a discussion on the Ohio part this morning.
the thesis was this:
Had the Conservatives Left the initiative to status quo vs 40 weeks then they probably would have won.
Instead they opted to move their postion in a way that caused them to lose middle of the road voters and thus gave away the win.
It was a strong long term strategic plan of the left which was aided by a short term tactical mistake by the right (insufficient long term strategic planning).
it makes sense to me, but I have not followed the Ohio issue closely so I am not well versed in the issue.
