Republicans feeling their money to be the sole factor in an election... (Barack Obama, voters)

[Cida]

This is from a reader letter in response to a New Yorker article about Robert Mercer and his attempts to steer the election.

The most disturbing sentence in Mayer’s thoroughly disturbing piece is about Robert Mercer’s daughter Rebekah, who, Mayer writes, “felt that they needed to investigate why their network had failed to defeat Obama in 2012.” Apparently, the fact that the majority of voters preferred Barack Obama was not a satisfactory explanation.
