This is what Democrats did wrong and Republicans did right.

How did turnout fall by 11 points in South Dakota? They actually had a competitive Senate race this year!

Obviously they were dissatisfied with the quality of the candidates.

Also in Ernst's case because her inept opponent refused to call her a lunatic like Reid did with Angle.

Let's not also forget that Hillary herself was more popular during the 2008 primary among many constituencies: women, Hispanics, working class whites. That means that these people maybe will be more motivated with a Clinton candidacy than they were with Obama.
Time will tell.
