There may be another reason Romney is having trouble in Ohio.

It's not as old and white as the Republicans need it to be. I was born and raised in Michigan and spent a lot of time in Ohio. If you spend any time in the Columbus area, you know about the influx of Latino and Asian families. And it's becoming as diverse as any East or West coast city. This is not your father's Ohio.
