In reality, what everyone will care about is the polling in Ohio and Florida for the election as they'll be close and most likely decide the election.

If Romney does win the election, I'm not sure if he'll win the popular vote due to current low enthusiasm for him and others in the primaries.

A CBS/NYT poll released yesterday shows Obama's approval rating at an all-time low of 41%.

In other words, he's in really deep trouble, and the CBOs announcement yesterday that ObamaCare will cost double the original projections (1.76B vs. 940M, a totally bogus number) is devastating to him.

The Jennifer Fluke episode is also backfiring on the Democrats as well, now that we all know that the 'war on women' as well as the equally hideous 'war on religion' and yet another has been engineered by the Democrats, and not the GOP.

Last night late, was watching tv, Obama's approval of the economy is at 39% not very good numbers at all.
See at some point people wake up, rising gas prices, failing economy, worse housing crash ever, lasting way too long, unemployment still too high, people pay attention.
I think also people are tired of Obama's endless excuses, lets blame them on Big Foot, , point anyone but himself> but loves to take credit, when things are going well.

What the CBO`s projections are for 10 years down the road will have no bearing on the election. If the GOP has a candidate that will beat Obama why are they waiting so long to reveal him or her? Fluke episode is backfiring on the dems? How about showing us some evidence of that?

It's true ... 1 of 6 polls concluded in the past three days has President Obama's approval rating @ 41%.

And the others have his approval rating @ 47%, 47%, 48%, 50%, 50%.

Hmm, in their own words - "The latest national survey by the Pew Research Center for the People & the Press, conducted March 7-11 among 1,503 adults, including 1,188 registered voters and 538 Republican and Republican-leaning voters"

So the number of Republicans are identified, why not Dems and independents?
