Poll
Question: Was the Obama coalition really an achievement of the Democratic Party or was it a 'gift' for Obama?
#1
It was a major achievement of the Democrats, turnout will stay the same in 2016
 
#2
Turnout will go even higher in 2016 than in 2012 because Hillary Clinton will extend and motivate the Obama coalition
 
#3
Turnout will drop, although not significantly
 
#4
The Obama coalition will probably not turn out in that large numbers again in 2016.

I have done some research on this issue, and the conclusion I reached was that what made Obama a winner was increased AA voter turn out.  Sure AAs voted for Kerry too and sure O appealed to many demographics Kerry couldn't appeal to, but what gave Obama VA, OH and FL was that black voters in those states actually voted.  Whoever is the next Dem candidate needs to remember that IMO
